Food + Notebook Kiss Photo dump

Lately for the past few weeks my mom has been working overtime, so I ended up having to cook dinner after school (since I get out at 3pm). I am the type who hardly cook, only once in a while. So yea, I took a few photos of my dishes. I dunno how people manage to stand for hours and cook. My leg is all sore from cooking T_T;; I appreciate my mom even more, who works from 4am to 5pm and have to come home and cook.




It looks so gross in the photo XD;; But it taste sweet from the Red Bell Pepper and Pineapple.


This looks like what my mom makes XD The last time I made it by myself, the shrimp was dry and the green pea was soggy. So my mom helped me with the cooking direction. Leaving the shrimp in salt water makes it more plump. This one is a lot better texture wise.


Today's dish! I marianated the chicken cube with Teriyaki, Oyster Sauce, Corn Syrup, and Sugar. My first marianated meat dish XD I don't eat pork, so it has to be chicken. My dad helped me with the cooking direction. Surprisingly, I think it taste pretty good. :3



On to my little Ouran doujinshi Notebook Kiss. Hehe I work on this everyday as I can. So no wonder I'm managing to finish almost to the end of the notebook! (If only I can do that for my HikaHaru doujinshi haha...*on hiatus*) There's no organization to the story and panel flow...so it's easier in a sense working directly on the pages...




Lily bought this from Hawaii last summer :3 I also have the cat mascot I bought when I was at Hawaii. THe pages are thin, but I got used to it. The paper size is perfect XD


Don't you hate it when people go "eww" when they see BL stuff.


All main Ouran characters appear in the book, not just Kyouya and Kaoru ;3 Hunny-senpai is ♥


A few more pages left ;O; I need to go find another notebook soon to finish off the story. Everything on the left is entirely filled up with pages @A@;; I have a lot of pages done for the doujinshi...it's just scanning and photoshopping (tone and dialogue) them that takes a while XD;;



Oh yea, I finished my annual Chinese New Year art @ DA

Okie, now I have to go work on some drawing and worry about 3D Modeling (It's sooo aggravating).

I would eat your food, it looks pretty good ^~^

- So much drawing that you have done o__o . . . and that sample page looks so nice. I really need to find a way to be able to sketch more so I can hopefully get better faster.

*food poison you*

Gesture drawing is the key to quick drawing. Mind the detail later and fill up the pages mindlessly XD;; *that what I'm doing in my interm. life drawing class.*

ヽ(`Д´)ノ *curses you as he throws up*

I have been trying to do things quicker, but I just have a bad habit of obsessively cleaning things up before I have even sketched everything out.

Your doujinshi looks so good!! OwO I can't wait to see the finishing result (and buy one from you ;w;!!!!!!!) Maybe we can trade our doujinshi @ AX! <3

[identity profile] gem2niki.livejournal.com 2007-03-09 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
I don't even own a Chinese cookbook. Maybe cuz I'm used to what my mom makes...but I just mix ingredients that are in the frige XD;;

Ah, this one doujinshi isn't going to be printed ^^;;; (Haha...why am I work on this when I should be working on the other?!!) I hope I can finish one by AX ;O; What doujinshi are you making? :3

*lives in ur shoes* <3

XD;;; Ah oh well at least I can read it online ne xD Ganbatte ne!

Actually my doujinshi is gonna be a group doujinshi. My friends and I are working on it right away and our circle name is Chakai (tea party) XD. I'm in charge of the whole thing C__________C. It'll have Ouran, Naruto, DGM, KH2, Bleach, ToA, Death Note, Eyeshield 21, and Avatar!!!!!! (@____________________@);;;;;;;; Right now, I'm making an Ouran doujinshi about Hunny's b-day <3 Yayyyyyyyyy~~ I'll have a preview of it up when I update my LJ <3

iwanthatoritofocusonhikaharuhaha.


Ouu a mix doujinshi XD;; Hehe Hunny's B-day XD Sound cuute <3 I wonder what happens XD

[identity profile] lucathia.livejournal.com 2007-03-09 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
Peppers!! And pineapples. D= Scaaary mix.

I think your photos make the food look yummy though. They look like pics out of cookbooks. :D

And yeah, why are you working on your online doujinshi instead of the one you're going to sell?! What is the other one titled anyway?

[identity profile] gem2niki.livejournal.com 2007-03-09 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
Haha remember my banana pizza!! yum XD;; haha

All I did was not use flash to take the photos. Hey, you ate one my dish didn't you...or did you T_T;;; *tries to remember*

I think I'm worried about my style changing irradically if I finish it too soon. So I'm trying to work out a style by using this doujinshi as a practice...and then work on the other one, when I nail a style XD;; Looking back at my sketches I started for the other one (Growing Apart XD;;) like last year...gawd it was terrible. *wants to redo everything* Same reason for not starting my prints early...my style keeps changing!! @A@!!!

I mostly make pasta lol.

It's Not Over is a great song. Every time I watch the music video, I keep thinking the guy would rob the jewelry store.
