zes' intro
 
Hi guys, another newbie here. Hope to get to know you guys better :)
So.. here's my intro.

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
Student, I wish I can get a job here but my student visa doesn't allow it
I like cooking, eating, painting, sculpting. However with the school's workload and needing to maintain stupidly high GPA to keep the scholarship, I really do not have that much time to work on my own paintings or sculptures...

That being said, it seems like there isn't a subforum for visual artists here xD

I also collect some dolls; learnt to sew for them. I have pet tarantulas; essentially colorful and fuzzy pet rocks. Photography pretty much branched out for my various loves and now I do it quite a bit. The only problem is its really hard to take good self portraits. Almost all my self portrait kind of photographs are done with my crappy webcam :(

2. Where are you from?
South east asia, I'm residing in a suburb near Seattle now

3. Who is your favorite author?
Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman probably. I love Dragonlance.

4. What are your favorite films?
Evil Dead, Nosferatu, The Crow, Edward Scissorshand, Feed, The Machinist, Silence of the Lamb, Pineapple Express, and a lot of B horror that's frankly... pretty hilarious.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
We Own the Night

6. At your funeral?
Ebonshire

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
Preferably one that is relatively fast but not fast enough that I don't even know how i die. As odd as it might sound, I do want to have a mirror around so I can see myself draw my last breath. The most stunning eyes I had seen was that of a kitten that had been fatally injured (ran over by a car). I just sat at the bus stop and stared at it until it died.
I got a little fixated on how beautiful death might be since then =|

8. What kind of casket would you want?
Frankly I won't mind if i become some awesome anatomy model like the ones from Bodyworlds.
The only casket I want at the moment is a coffin case for my bass :3

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
my black cardigan, it makes my shoulder and arms look smaller :x
Maybe my strappy 5" heel boots... Since I am only 5' (153cm) tall...

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
my mom bakes delicious stuff for us then. Now I am far away from home and even when I am back.. she makes healthier food... Still delicious but no way can it hold a candle to its past glory!

11. What's your favorite band?
The 69 Eyes, Mudvayne, Bauhaus, Rammstein, Oomph!, Leave's Eyes, Infected Mushrooms, HIM, Disturbed, Deadfly Ensemble, Mindless Faith
I guess thats more than 1 favorite... This list is always growing...

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
I have a degree form a technical college. However as I realized I work just as much if not more and was getting paid significantly less than a college grad, I decided to go back to school.
At the moment I am working on my BA in production animation. Would hopefully go back for a MA after I grad and work for a couple of years so I can pay for it myself :D

13. Why did you join?
I don't know many people that is interested in similar things thus it might be nice to find some here. I was looking at the fashion forums and the DIY thread caught my eyes. It would be nice when I get around to taking pictures of work in progress to get some opinions.

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
female

PS: Just wondering, when i was registering I was asked which band Robert Smith is in, would one still be able to register if they get the answer wrong? :eek:

Have you seen "House of Blood" by chance? Ninja-mormon-vampires at it's best (and probably only) incarnation.

I bet you would be more then a little bothered if you saw something truly disturbing.

Judging from some of the more retarded posts that I have seen, somehow I am inclined to believe "Yes, most definitely so" is a good answer to your question.

zes 10-11-2010 12:55 AM

hmm, never seen House of Blood. It does sound amazing from your synopsis. I should try to lay my hands on a copy. If its hilarious enough I would probably make my buddies watch it during our weekly slack night.

Maybe I would feel totally disturbed if i saw something worse. I still cannot forget how blue those eyes were though. Thats like 7 years ago I think.
But hey, for all I know I might see the most beautiful black eyes if I watch myself die. That wouldn't be a bad last memory. Either that or I would end up being traumatized at my last moment, which won't be too bad either since it would soon be over. :p

I suppose said retarded posters would most likely be gone in a couple of days or weeks. Its good entertainment though.

I wrote a review/rant of the movie when I was about 19 or so if you'd like to read it. I'll post it in the "TV, Movies, Games" board.

zes 10-11-2010 01:45 AM

Nope. It's a complete spoiler of the entire movie.

Miss Zes and Versus, Gnet does have a visual arts section; it's just not located on the ordinary boards. It's under the title "the Black Arts" in the community area. By all means upload some of your works. The other members and I would love to see them.

By the way, a "warm welcome" to you, Miss Zes.

ouch, apostrophes
Thanks! I just found the community page. Never noticed it before you mentioned it :)

Welcome and hey!

Bodyworlds kicks ASS!!! Welcome, I look forward to your contributions!! <3<3<3

the-nihilist 10-11-2010 08:06 PM

I didn't read any of your intro. Is it worth reading? I don't have much of an attention span.

zes 10-12-2010 03:32 PM

Thanks AD! I still remember what I dork I was when I went to the first bodyworld exhibition; sketching and nerding out about anatomy to my unlucky friend that I dragged along xD

Nihilist: frankly it's quite a wall of text. Probably TL;DR worthy. It's not all that exciting anyway unless one wants to get to know me a bit.
