the journal

well, I havent updated in a while and the only reason I am doing so now is to say that I made another cartoony type thing and it is on my website. also to point out the url of my website. oldbox.princeton.edu/~ziavra/fuzzdog/fuzzdog.html . I will check the link to make sure it works. I'm also working on some pirates but I have yet to come up with a plot.
in other news, i am visiting my family for two weeks (starting last week). It's quite boring here. Except for sometimes me and Anton play DDR, that's fun. Though my legs have been hurting for 3-4 days now. And sometimes someone makes fun of me for not knowing some math or computer thing and remind me that I just got a bachelor's degree in math and cs. which, by the way, i did. but it's not my fault they didn't teach us anything useful.

some jerk copied my e-bay auction for ed edd n eddy toys. he took my picture, he took my words. he changed the words arouns so they make less sense. He added colors. he tweaked my picture in photoshop. I emailed him about it, and he told me to get a life.
dare to compare:
mine
his

I'm almost done with my website. except I can't upload .mov files right now. so on the clips page, all the links are dead. (www.oddworldz.com/ruffie)
If they dont email me back soon and allow me to have movies, I will have to move to another server probably.

I wonder when they are going to show the last episode of ed edd n eddy.

"I am [something]! hear me cluck." should be an Ed quote. can't you just see it? I mean, hear it...

yup, i'm lazy. even now i'm posting because i'm supposed to be working on a paper. well, and I havent posted in a long long time. dont want people to forget me. I'm starting a website for my animation stuff but will not link to it yet because it is so far from done it has practically no information. someone remind me to later though.
so, those new ed edd n eddy episodes were quite fun. weird. but fun. I liked very much that the clip show episode was a fake clip show. Anton, tell me when you get them. and whether they play ok.

i finally finished my grad school applications. now maybe I'll have some time for animation again. I've scanned my storyboard that I drew so far(about half of the whole animation I think) and am cleaning them up in photoshop at the moment, about 1/10th done. the storyboards have text in english. soon they will be on a website but not now as I have to go to class. for now, though, very oversized and not at all fixed and somewhat unintelligible(too light) storyboards are up at http://www.students.uiuc.edu/~malyshev/storyboard/
yup
that's all
update: just realized I ended my previous post in the same exact words. oh well.

Snow

snowsnowsnow! it snowed! I went snowboarding. it was fun. I went down four times and only fell twice. and only broke the board once... yup... thats all.

Tue, 20 Jan 2004 05:17:38 GMT

I have not posted in a while.
the thing that propmted me to post was the Ed Edd n Eddy marathon, and the new EEnE commercials. mostly the commercials. they are weirdly animated, like someone else did them, but pretty close to the real thing. I'm not sure but I think the voices are the same. and, they are finally going to air new episodes on fridays! yay!

Fri, 19 Dec 2003 09:43:04 GMT

o-bla-dee, o-bla-da! just letting people know i'm still alive. day after tomorrow school and the bulk of graduate-applying will be over and I wil be home free, maybe then a real post.

Tue, 11 Nov 2003 08:25:55 GMT

yet again the journal had been abandoned.
I feel too lazy to list all the tests I've had recently, but there was a lot of them. mainly I dont feel like remembering them all. the main one was the CS(computer science) GRE.
at least I found something productive to do in class to keep me not bored(and awake!). I'm drawing storyboards for my cartoon, finishing up scene 2 now. I'm thinking it will make the actual animation a bit easier and faster. not that I've had time for that recently. I think I made like two new frames in two weeks. oh dear, see anton, you're not the only one who uses like too much; at least you dont use it in typing

yee-haw!

I saw the (relatively) new episode of ed edd n eddy! this would not have been such a big deal if not for the fact that this is the first new episode since this spring.

Ed is funny! I was jumpy for a while after seeing it.

also, I got some puppy and kitten stickers and scott is afraid they are going to be all over the house now.

there was two new people in jujitsu, and I finally learned to do the back rolll over my right shoulder. i couldnt before because my head kept switching to the wrong side. the wrong side being the right side, since if i'm rolling over my right shoulder and my head is over my right shoulder it will get in the way. I fould that if I concentrate on looking back over my left shoulder and not on anything ese, I can actually do the roll. it looks quite clumsy, but still.

baby brother, did mom figure out whether you can come over for thanksgiving yet?
I'll show you the episodes you havent seen yet, and copy them (hopefully the right ones this time)

in my greek and latin roots book, they spelled thingymajig wrong. they spelled it thingumajig. but U is not a connecting letter, and y is for example, it's simplyfy(well, ok, simplify but still very close) ! y makes more sense, and sounds better. and besides, thingu isnt a word and thingy is.

this I made over the summer and only now finally rendered it with the sound and all. guess whose imagination this came out of. well, other than mine. I helped.

this happened several days ago:

Sat, 18 Oct 2003 02:32:59 GMT

I cut my hair. just the bangs. I cut them a little short and I used the hair-thinner scissors a little too much so now half of my bangs stand up all the time. i kinda like it actually, it gives me a silly look.
plus, the short hair will be useful when I put gel in it and spike it up and put the Ed mask on so it will look like ed's hair.

I have TSE tomorrow. test of spoken english. curse these rules.

they don't have goofy as a mood. or anything close that I saw.

No way! they came! my limited-edition Ed Edd n Eddy tops! Two dollars each and I ordered it! maybe anton's came too. did they, anton? I got two sets so far, they're cool. I got the offer off of pop-tarts boxes.
they're bigger than I thought.
speaking of EEnE, this game is fun

scott made blue raspberry jello with swedish fish in it for me!
I drew Ed but he turned out rather fat. well, fatter than he is supposed to be, anyway.

livejournal had been abandoned in favor of homework once again. I have over 25 unread friends posts. havent read them yet as i'm still (supposedly) doing homework.
I've been working on an Ed mask out of papier-mache and it's turning out pretty good. my costume then will be loose jeans, a white tshirt with the red stripes made by taping red tape to it(which I haven't bought yet) and a green fleece jacket with maybe masking tape fot the two stripes. I'm planning some accessories too, like the rattle from the home movie episode and a boat on my back. yay! now to figure out what the heck I'm going to do on halloween.
ok, back to homework.

today we went for a walk and encountered:
3 cats that wanted to be petted,
one that didn't,
and two dogs who were too far away to be petted
yay! kitties and doggies!

Sun, 05 Oct 2003 05:12:05 GMT

We have a doorbell now! yay!
and today I finally went to jujitsu after skipping for two weeks. those guys are really nice, they didnt say anything bad about that at all, just "havent seen you in a while, but that's ok"
there's one girl in the class other than me. she is a blue belt and she keeps saying how it's wonderful to have little me to throw instead of 180-pound guys.

animation update

Wed, 01 Oct 2003 00:13:22 GMT

in case someone is wondering, here's what I'm working on right now:
http://www.students.uiuc.edu/~malyshev/movies/current.mov

1) making Little Red riding hood jump
2)removing the funny basket-shaped invisibility on Ruffie(masking from the hug thing)
the other movie I linked to in a previous post should still be there, though it froze Explorer when I tried to go there.

sunday I got a huge splinter in my foot from dragging my feet as I walked around and talked to my family on the phone. sunday wasals my brother's birthdy. happy birthdy, baby brother! anyway, the splinter was at least 1/2 inch long, and my foot still hurts.
today I bit my lip in the same place twice. scott looked and said that the cut is in the shape of an S.
I relly don't like what Cartoon network is doing wiht its fridays. they're copying nickelodeon and putting in real-ife stupid kids(well,young adoults, actually)! they look really stupid. I liked the cartoon-only thing! :(

'twas a long and fun weekend.

mostly it consisted of hanging out at Ruth's* house, then going home(scott's home, not the apartment) to sleep. on friday we drove there(scott's home), went over to ruth's and helped set up the party a little(see previous post about party). then went home and slept. we slept in the basement and something(a bug) bit me about 10 times, it itches now. two of the bites are on my bellybutton.
Saturday we woke up and went to a mall to get some nice clothes for scott cause the party was formal. scott looks very nice in nice clothes. and he got me two more pairs of silly socks, one with turtles and another I forget what. then we went to the party. first there was a church ceremony, which was pretty boring especially since it was entirely in spanish. then was food and taht was good, and then we went over to their house and there was more good food and music and dancing
there were also a bunch of chidren and at least 4 toddlers and all the toddlers were scared of me, even though kids usually like me.:( one started crying after I looked at her the other ones just backed away. scott says it's because they are only used to mexican people.
I danced a little bit with scott, and have proven that just as I suspected I cant dance rolf.
But before I danced with scott, scott wanted milly to teach me how to dance and came over there and said something about dance and Milly decided that it was he who wanted to learn and not me and so he had to dance and I ran away! hehehe.

then today on the ride backwe stopped by a dairy queen and had blizzards, those are good. I had capuccino heath bar.

*Ruth is scott's friend from his summer job. she is mexican. same thing for Milly, Osvelia, and Jessica
I will update this post as i remember other stuff that happened.

useful EEnE quotes(that is ones that I use often in real life):

"must I spell it?" - Rolf
"okeydokey, smokey!" - Ed
"I can't dance (Rolf)" - Ed
"Are you weak in the upper story?" - Rolf

any other ones?
