confidential asked: I am pretty okay at grasping how to draw folds in clothing, but for some reason, I cannot seem to wrap my head around how pants lay around feet/shoes. Any help?
Think of folds in terms of z+y shapes! The best thing I can really advise is to actually look at pants and shoes and stuff. One of the things I’ve been taught about folds is that wherever the fabric touches the body, that’s where it creates folds. Look at these t-shirt models, for example: the folds are made at the armpits and chest on both, because that’s where the fabric is either bunching, or is stretched.
In the shoe example, you can see that mst of the straight orange lines are where my legs are in the pants. The majority of the folds are created because the leg is coming in contact with my shoes. The more fabric there is, the more it bunches up (like in the baggy leg one). When I crouch, again, more fabric comes into contact with my leg and with my shoes, so there’s more bunching, and more folds.
Also keep in mind the way it drapes over the shoe in all the examples; it just follows the contour of my foot. Nothing really changes in any, except for there being more fabric touching the floor in the baggy pants one!
@w@ Hope that helps a bit~~
very useful stuff.
AAAAAAAAAAAGH THIS IS THE BEST. I HATE having to draw that. And somehow I have to a lot. So I’m always like “DOOP DOOP DOOP I HOPE THIS ISN’T TOO RETARDED.” (TBH, I say that with a lot of stuff I draw).

10 Signs Someone is Interested in You
1. They stand closer to you or they keep a smaller distance when they’re around you. It shows that they are comfortable with you and want to get physically intimate.
2. They are more likely to face you when talking to you as opposed to standing sideways or away from you. However, if they are shy, then maybe this point won’t apply so much. Instead, they will periodically take glimpses at you when you’re not looking.
3. They’d try to get your attention for trivial things such as calling you about what homework they have or when the homework is due.
4. They smile more frequently because of you. Even if they don’t show it while around you because they don’t want you to find out they like you, they will smile when they think of you.
5. Their behavior can be passive aggressive. They may appear to show interest in you one day and not the other. Sometimes, this leaves you wondering if you pissed them off without realizing. When someone likes you, little things you do can hurt them, because they have taken a bigger notice to you.
6. They prioritize their activities with you. They may cancel plans just so they can meet up with you or assist you with something.
7. Their friends know about you. They have probably at some point confess to at least one friend their feelings about you.
8. They want to find out more about you to see if you’re single or available or/and if you’re compatible.
9. They will care about you if you are upset and they will often try to do something for you. Remember, people may not always tell you how they feel, but they will always show you. You just have to pay attention.
10. Last but not least, the most obvious sign is that they will feel upset or hurt if they learn that you don’t like them or when they get rejected by you.
The more of these signs someone shows towards you, the higher the chance they are interested in you. However, 1 or 2 of these signs alone may mean nothing at all. Furthermore, each person is different and this may not apply to all types of personalities, but this does relate to most. You can add more tell-tale signs below.

Birth Order
Did you know your birth order reflects your personality of who you are today?
Oldest Child: The oldest child are rarely bad. They come off as bossy because they created a sense of responsibility at a very young age. They are usually the most bossy in the family however, they are people pleasers. Oldest children tend to marry or stay and maintain a relationship for a long period of time. They are perfectionist and at times put themselves under a lot of pressure.
Youngest Child: They often behave as if they are the only child. They expect others to do things and make decisions for them. At times they feel the weakest/smallest of the family. They are very tricky and know how to manipulate people into doing things for them. The youngest child are fun and very liked by others. They are usually really good at examining and studying people. The youngest child are usually the loudest of the group. They seek and like being paid attention to. If you are dating a youngest child, the worst thing you can do is tell them what to do. They have low maintenance expectations in a relationship. They are innovative and usually have the best sense of humor. They are usually undisciplined, self-centered, and have a high ego of themselves.Middle Child: The middle child never had rights of a older and younger child. They often feel as if life is unfair. They are very adaptive and can compromise better than others. They are good at keeping promises and get along people really well. They are willing to do things differently. They are very independent and usually don’t rely on others. They are the peacemaker of the group but at the same time is rebellious. Friends might become an impact on the middle child’s life. They are very stubborn and dislike computation. They don’t usually ask for help. They either feel too embarrassed or rather learn for themselves. They either marry quickly, or really late. If late, they will wait for the right/perfect person. They are calm but fierce on the inside. They don’t like to open up or share their feelings.
Good in theory and on paper, but bullshit in actuality. As always, there are exceptions that defy the norms. I’m the youngest, and I’m the more responsible one. I take care of my parents and strive for perfection. My older brother, 13 years my senior, has cut off communication with the family because we caught him in a web of lies. He was lying about tickets that he’d gotten so that our parents would send him more money. We don’t really know where he is right now, and I would live the rest of my life painting terracotta pots if he’d pick up the phone and give us a call once in a while, because I know our parents worry about him still. Especially our mother.

Nightmare Before Christmas: How they died
To explain this, we just put this on a while ago and I couldn’t help but realize that everyone in Halloween Town is either dead, or something that never was alive (save probably the werewolf, witchs, and lake monster.) So I got to thinking, “How did they die?” And I realized there are small little hints in everything.

12 Types and Examples of Distorted Thinking
Mind Reading - When you make assumptions about what somebody is thinking or feeling without them telling you. In reality, you are delusional or paranoid.
Catastrophize - when you over think a problem and the effects that they will actually have on you. For example, when you think that losing arelationship means the end of your life when really you can find someone new the next day or down the line.
Filtering - when you only pay attention to one side of things. For example, you only remember the bad times you had in school and not the good ones.
Polarized thinking - when you think of things as either black or white or good or bad. For example, there can only be good or bad people or success or fails.
Personalization - when you take everything too personally. For example, when you think that everything people do or say is some kind of reaction to you.
Blaming - when you hold other people accountable for your problems. For example, you blame someone else for causing you to make a bad decision. In actuality, you were the one who made the wrong call based on your own judgement.
Being Right - You feel the need to prove that your opinions or actions are correct. For example, you neglect other people’s perspective in an argument.
Should’s - when you place sets of rules on yourself. For example, you think that you should go out whenever your friend asks you to.
Emotional Reading - When you use your emotions to make a decision or judgement. For example, you buy into a product because of how good it was marketed when really the product is not that good.
Fallacy of Change - when you think others should change for you and that your happiness depends on them changing. For example, you expect that person to stop being a jerk because you are being nice to them.
Heaven’s Reward Fallacy - when you expect that all your sacrifices or hard work to pay off. For example, you think that if you work hard enough, you should get a reward.
Overgeneralization - when you carry a problem over to otherdomains. When you fail a math test, you think that you are not good with anything to do with numbers.

A tip from your favorite nurse
(that’d be me)
Always have eggs in your fridge
You just never know when someone will split their head open
Or cut their finger while cooking
And so on
See that membrane there?
While the blood is gushing - hold pressure and crack open an egg
Peel that there membrane off and put it on the wound (continue holding pressure)
The membrane will harden and keep the wound closed until you can get to the ER for stitches
If you even need them that is
Nature: 1, Band aids: 0
You’re welcome.
for reals??
wow sometimes Tumblr is the best education.
Yup! My sister had to do this for me when I cut my palm.

I’ve just passed the 25,000 word count…
NaNoWriMo has been interesting. The whole way through, I’ve been telling myself, “Don’t get too excited. Just because you’re doing a good job so far doesn’t mean you’ll actually keep up this pace. Knowing your luck, just when you think it’s time to feel empowered, you’ll loose steam and totally begin to fail.”
But secretly, on the inside… I think this entire thing is just…
So you know what? Forget all those doubts. Maybe on some days I’ll do worse than others, and I may not always make my deadline or word count. But for right now… well, this is just for that little victory :)
oh…well. That’s fine. It’s not like I needed to sleep tonight anyway.
