I'll graduate in literally 7 days!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I'll be teaching 4 different classes for 7th graders (including Social Studies! ) It's going to be an intense but amazing year for me.

Helen. You know, I'm an English teacher, so I love essays.

Title suggestion: The Varying Levels of Isabel Evans-Whitman's Insanity: A Study.

Both for graduating and landing a job.
I'm happy for you and I wish you lots of SUCCESS!

Aw, thank you, Helen! (And don't worry, it's actually only been about half a year. )This new chapter of my life has just been amazing. I love the kids I work with. They're middle schoolers, so they're absolutely crazy and out of their minds most of the time, but I think the world of them.

Okay, this is random, but I was browsing through my author's thread here and decided that I didn't like the CD covers and back designs I'd made for the Passion soundtrack. So, since I've done my favorite thing ever and downloaded the new trial version of Photoshop, I thought I'd redo them. So here they are, much better than the previous ones. Not that I expect anyone to care.
Lyrics on the first one are from "Big Chair" by Travis, and lyrics on the second one are from the incredibly overused but still classic "Wonderwall" by Oasis.

I'll be dropping off more Photoshop stuff in days to come.

Well, here we go. It's been awhile since I've made a video, on account of being too lazy and cheap to actually purchase Sony Vegas software. I actually made this one on the beyond-crappy Windows Live Movie Maker. I hate that program, but I actually kind of love this video. I feel like it's one of the best I've made in awhile. Pretty simple, but I think it's a beautiful song. The song is "Roll Over Me" by The Autumn Film, and yes, it's a One Tree Hill song.
I was having problems with this video link, so if for some reason the link isn't working, you can find it on my Youtube channel here: http://www.youtube.com/user/April7739?feature=mhee

I was going for a sort of 522-angle with it, as I wanted it to have a feel of angst and depression about it. The concept is that Maria is sort of trapped in a world of darkness and despair, and Michael desperately wants to pull her out of it, but that's easier said than done. Let me know if the concept comes across or not.

Well, it's been awhile since I've dropped off any artwork. I made most of this stuff a long time ago when I still had my trial version of the latest Photoshop, but I've just neglected to post it. Anyway, then I messed around with the stuff even more on Photobucket. Bravo to Photobucket; they've really improved their photo editing stuff on that site.

I've got a lot, so I think I'll split it into separate posts.


Obviously this was 522-inspired. The lyrics scattered throughout are to "When Love and Death Embrace" by H.I.M.


Just a random Candy art. Lyrics are to "All You Wanted" by Sounds Under Radio. A really beautiful song.


Maria Manip. Not sure how I feel about it.


Another Maria Manip. I ended up putting this one on the revamped cover of one of the Passion soundtracks.


Ugh, not my best.






I like this one, though. Brunette Maria.




This is definitely one of the better ones I've done. Very 522-inspired.






Just playing around with an earlier manip.












I kinda like how this manip turned out. I call it "Senior Picture Maria." For some reason.




Clearly I'm very into flames right now.


Again, just playing around with an earlier manip. A very early one this time.








Clearly I am also very into lines right now.




For some reason, this one was really easy. I wish they were all this easy.

Again, playing with an earlier manip. Probably my strongest Tess one ever.






Just a little recoloring on this one. I will probably never ever do a manip as good as this one again.


I always love doing the "slutty Isabel" manips.




More slight retouching of a previous manip. This is probably my favorite Isabel one I've done.




I guess this is supposed to be a sig. banner? I don't know.

And last but not least, a collection of sig. banners for each of the four lovely ladies. Sorry they're not all the same size.
