Number 15 (BOOYA!!)



i finally took out my sketchbook and tried again painting with a non-wireless pen on a surface without leaving marks, but instead sending the information to this weird screen that you're reading right now. 

so where's the challenge in todays world of art? digital painting is easier than opening a jar of nacho cheese dip, which is frustrating. aarrgh! ..now i got it. hmmm junk food

so yeah.. this one took me i dunno how many hours. well i started at noon when i woke up and then.. uhm... like about 4 hours. it would have been 2 hours if i wouldn't have had a weird start on the hand. 

whatevaa. *yawn*

nighty night!

Number 14

But whats driving me crazy the most is the idea that there must be more behind all that. there's something that i haven't figured out yet. there must be some kinda spirit in us, but what for? i'm kinda like a buddhist sitting around all day waiting for the inspiration, except i don't do it all day long..

i'm off. a pile of homework is waiting to get done..

Number 13

well..
(love that word. there is no "well" in the german language, or if there is, it wouldn't make sense using it like you do in english. life is unfair..)

On the schoolyard you'd find me sitting alone on a bench watching the others running around, smoking, talking, mobbing and so on, trying to understand how they always manage to shut down their minds that long, not caring about the meaning of everything and the unimportance of their "omg! my nail just broke last period!! aahhhh *faint*"-conversations.
sometimes i'm wondering why and how humanity got that shallow, but in the very next moment i understand that if everyone would be as crazy as i am, we would all commit suicide because life makes no sense anymore..but then my next thought would be something like: "then i must be a prophet like jesus.." or "what's better? teaching humanity all the knowledge and wisdom or drop an atomic bomb?"
this whole self-conversation would end with: i prefer just being annie.. just annie.
but no matter how far and deep i get with all the thinking, nature always brings me down to earth again. it does amaze me how everything works in nature and no animal is wondering why it works or if there is a deeper sense behind it. no.. they just sleep, kill, eat, running away from enemies, take a sunbath and then sleep again. life could be so simple! being human is actually the same, it's just way more complicated.
so what's my role in this play? i hate doing the background roles.. i'm at my school's theatre club and didn't had any speaking role this year! why am i in this f*cking club? they could also play nick hornby's "a long way down" without me! so whats the sense behind that? just the participation in a club or the being "social"? i wanna be appreciated.
the difficult thing is: how can i make myself look from the outside just the same as from the inside? or.. well.. i actually don't want everyone to see my wings. it's kinda a secret.. but what if you only have this one secret that makes you special and interesting?
and what if you actually everytime change your mind and it goes like "i want the cool kids to like me".."no i prefer being alone with myself"? i try to let both sides out, but not at the same time. but the "i prefer being alone" side is stronger. my mind doesn't want to leave me alone. it follows me around like a crazy stalker, waiting for another good situation to turn itself on.
but it can leave me alone sometimes. when i'm hanging around with friends, doing nonsense activities and having fun. life is pretty good!
but then again it feels like wasting time. they always say youth is the best time in life. 30 years later i'll say "oh jees.. why didnt i just go to these parties, get drunk and had a good time, instead of sitting around at home thinking about if it would be a waste of time sitting around at home thinking if it would be a waste of time sitting around at home thinking.." and so on and so forth.. but at the moment i find writing this blog more important than dancing and drinking. everyone his own. but if my whole life would be like that, then it wouldn't be a well-used life! i wanna experience everything, traveling to every country and having a dozen kids. i just can't decide.. is there a golden middle? if i'd follow the creative, deepthinking path, i wouldn't earn enough money to follow the other path at the same time. and if i'd follow the other path, i wouldn't find a job that i love..
at this point my thought suddenly stops. my mind is striking. probably because i didn't had my glass of milk yet..

sorry for not getting the actuall point of the whole character problem thing.. i'm still a little over the moon x.x

As soon as you decide which of the 2 paws is the right one, you can be sure that the other one is the left one. (winnieh the pooh)

Number 12

i guess it's the age.. being 17 is not the best time in life. it's filled with doubts and confusion and hate. and i got a big portion of each one of them >.< lucky me..

i hate humanity for being selfish and stupid and i still don't know who i really am and what path i should follow and i'm not as good as i wanna be. plus i hate winter for the gray skies and the cold days and the empty trees that take away all the joy of the day. i wish spring is coming soon and fills my heart with joy and love and hope again. god is my favorit artist, but winter isn't his masterpiece at all..
i wish i could paint the sky like he does sometimes <3 i wish i could paint at all! but all i do is putting lines and colors on paper that don't really match the picture in my head.. sometimes i wish my brain is connected to a printer instead of two left hands.

Number 11

my summer was pretty cool.. i didn't work on my super uber cool project that i was actually planning on doing, because it's too much work and since i am the god of lazyness and felt way too overwhelmed.. well... to make it short: its too much.
yes i bought a hamster.. i actually bought two.. and as you probably know from school 1 + 1 = 5. or 1 + 1 = 3,5 if you take a baby hamster as a half one xD
so yeah.. jamie became a mommy of 3 adorable little baby hamsters! you can check out my photos on deviantart if you want to.. http://ibreathe.deviantart.com/gallery/#Hamsters (all of those photos are with the babys except the jamie dehamster photos.. thats obviously jamie)

so yeah.. while caring about my room mates i painted a toscana picture for my grandparents.. pretty boring picture to paint <.<
at the moment i'm working on a sunrise or right before sunrise picture with a wide field of grass lying in the wind and a really dark blue - green sky. it's gonna be a beautiful picture. i'll probaly put a girl in the picture too.. with her dress and hair flying in the wind and a blue flower in her hand (because we need to put a symbol of one of the art periods in the picture and i obviously choose romanticism with caspar david friedrich as my example.. i love him and i think i'm related with him.. since we have the same last name and i can copy his paintings almost perfectly.. that would be too awesome x.x) and.. where were i? oh yeah and she's like looking towards the stripe of light at the horizont. it's a cold picture full of lonelyness.. i love it. i love being alone and i love cold mornings and sunrises and wind. and the blue flower is a symbol of love, eternety and longing..

what else.. my next youtube vid will probably be a mr. ian watkins drawing. i think after drawing marilyn monroe, johnny depp and david cook, i got enough subscribers.. means now i can draw whoever i want and still get enough views. i'm not sure if i'll ever record me while painting on canvas.. it takes a while til its done and after "finishing" the painting i spend 2 more months correcting the mistakes and details and everything until its perfect.. but maybe someday i do a speed painting of pikachu or whatever and then i'll post a video about it on youtube.

uhm.. what else? i'm pretty good at school. better than expected. all the teachers say that your marks go down in class 11 and 12 but i actually improved from a C to a B xD
its because in germany you get marks (grades) from 1 to 6 (1 as the best, 6=worst) and in 11th and 12th class you get points from 1 to 15 (15 = best). and i prefer working hard for a high number of points than a 1. it's understandable isnt it? so my average is about 10 now. yeaaahh i'm smart =3 without actually practising at all xD how cool is that?

thats it for now..

greetings from jamie (she was starring at me for like 3 minutes oO)

Number 10

I feel bad... i always hurt people by saying bad things.. mostly prejudgement without actually knowing a shit.

like "i start to not like the band that much, because of this fake personality. it really seems to me that you have a manager who tells you what to be like and that sucks. or its because of ian. the leader. with his weird trend, that isn't really a trend but in ians definition it is because even no trend is a trend. that is confusing and even he is unsure about his trend. but probably its the manager. i wouldnt expect such consufion from ian. well.. i would. he should grow up and deside what he wants! jeees.." (posted on jamie's blog)

i'm just a stupid little girl that doesnt think about what to say and what not.

i apologize.
