Before the first monthly event.. x3
October 12thNo school taday.. but right after school ended, I got a phone call from Quintavious (tay-tay) with a story line of that day like this:
Alice: Quintonia, you know about Portia's bookbag?
Quintonia: How do you know??
Alice: Latricia told me she saw you at lunch near it when it got stolen..
Quintonia: Oh... yeah, I have it.
Alice: You do?! Really? Where is it?
Quintonia: *smirks and looks away yelling at someone down the hall* What now?
Alice: You have Portia's book bag? Where is it? Show me.
Quintonia: .... I have it.. I.. uh *looks away and waves at someone*
-bell rings-
Quintonia: *Starts to walk away*
Alice: Hey! Tell me! Where is it?!
Ouintonia: I have to go to class! *runs off*
Alice: *tries to stop her but she runs off to fast*
-At Lunch-
Tay-tay: Hey Alice!
Alice: Hey. Tay-tay.. I think Quintonia has Portia's phone..
Tay-tay: Quintonia? Why her?
Alice: What I told you Latricia told me and Portia yesterday. I asked her about it today and she said she had it, but ran off before I could see it.
Quintavious: What?? Well i'm gonna go ask her after we eat.. *finishes and goes to ask* Quintonia, you have Portia's bookbag?
Quintonia: How do you know?
Ouintavious: Alice told me...
Quintonia: Oh, well yeah. I had it.
Ouintavious: Where is it now?
Quintonia: In Ms. Gladden's class..
Ouintavious: Why?
Ouintonia: [unknown reason]
Ouintavious: Oh well okay.. i'll go ask Ms. Gladden. *see's her in the hall way on the way to class* Ms. Gladden, do you have Portia's book bag in your class?
Ms. Gladden: ... *looks confused* Portia??..... *shakes her head, unsure*
-late bell rings-
Ouintavious: Oh well, i'll see later.
-after school- didn't have enough time as he would have missed his bus..

That trick.. I wonder why she'd retained this information since Tuesday and decide not to tell ME about it.. and the day I didn't come to school, everything pours out. She even stood there when I mentioned how my things got stolen, in front of her.. so it's not like she forgot or she hadn't seen me! She has my things or the girls that were with her do! And she's knows it! >:|
Later on that day towards night time I received a call from Tilford telling me to check my e-mail. I was hoping he sent the AWA pics again, but it was a program. :| It said that we had to practice in class today.. but since I didn't come I couldn't do it. Everyone had different programs.. and he had a Airbrushing one.. he wanted to be my partner so the teacher told him to e-mail it to me so I can look at it before the next week. I couldn't wait to try it out so I started immediately :D After hours of fiddling and searching for someone to airbrush, I finally found someone to work on. I used Dewi.. and I hope she doesn't mind x/ I'm not very excited about the outcome, but i'm glad I got through it right :D
Here's a screen shot from the tutorial.. it wasn't as easy as I thought it'd be! x( I had to redo A LOT of things to get it right.. -sigh- Thank God I got through it ^^;
And my outcome! Before and After pic of Ms. Dewi Woo :)
Some bad points:
- I should of chosen a clearer, non-pixelated, not so noisy picture :/ It would have been easier..
- I should of never lightened the eyes.. I wanted to try it since it was in the tutorial, but since the picture wasn't clear, I couldn't do wonders like I wanted, haha. I shall try another time Dewi! :D
-I forgot to just airbrush the skin alone.. the picture is left with a tan tone because of that. Ex: hair, uniform, couch..
- I forgot to re-add the lighting to make it more realistic.. the skin looks kinda plastic. You wouldn't notice by just looking at it, but looking at the before picture you can definitely see it.
- The skin is a bit more sharpened, but the texture is still pixelated because I didn't know how to clean the photo :(
But it turned out great for my first time, huh?! :D I can't wait to start photo manipulations, vectoring and CG! x)
October 13th
I'm suppose to go to the market with my mom later today, but it's 5:44 am right now, and I should be sleeping! I didn't go to school yesterday because I was tired.. so spoiled x( I was super late to school all week! I need to really be on time a lot more because the tardy slip ladies are getting WAY too comfortable with me coming late.. sooner or later they'll start to get really curious because one of them already started asking, "So what is the reason this time, Portia?" o_o;

[EDIT 7:45 pm]
I actually woke up at like 11:30 this morning x] Helen, aunt's friend, was already down stairs waiting for all of us to get ready. She and my aunt were going to the movies. The market was different than I though it was.. there were lots of different ethnicities though, like I thought. I still said I liked the Super H-Mart better though :]
Later when I got home my aunt called and said found some Vampire teeth at the prop store where her and Helen stopped! Turned out they were cheap x( Ahhhh.. I wanted vampire teeth so bad. T.T
[/EDIT]
[EDIT October 16th]I found my book bag! :D Ms. Gladden said she did have it x) But the phone wasn't in there and neither was my breeze card. -_- At least I have all my notes and work :3[/EDIT]Labels: life, school
