Watchers

Well, 2011 is over, and 2012 has begun.  I imagine everybody has made a resolution for the new year.  I haven't though.:(  Sorry, it just wasn't high on my list on priorities.

I DO however have plans for the year.  You see, this coming semester will be my last (hopefully) term as a student.  Once I graduate, my life is gonna change in big ways.  I'm gonna continue to work at Joe's for a while, then I think I'm gonna get a job in the construction industry.  I think I might get a job in a carpentry store.

However, that's not all I've planned for my life.  I also would like to volunteer at the John Street Roundhouse.  You see, growing up, I was a railfan.  Railfans are people who have a fascination with trains. We like model trains, riding on trains, preserving steam locomotives, trainspotting, taking locomotive names and numbers, watching train movies, reading books about trains, you get the idea.  Growing up, I liked to watch Thomas The Tank Engine.  These days however, my preference has fallen more towards the original "The Railway Series".  I find this ironic, looking back on it.  You see, my family had a couple of books in The Railway Series when I was a baby, and I was just freaked out by the illustrations.  As a result, I gravitated towards the TV Series growing up.  Now, however, with the TV Series stories becoming more formulaic and unrealistic (the Reverend Wilbert Vere Awdry, who wrote the original books, strived to make the stories as realistic as possible, basing them on stories that ACTUALLY HAPPENED), and the series now being produced in CG (I was kinda freaked out by this), I find myself gravitating towards The Railway Series, particularly the later books that have a new illustrator.  Anyway, yeah, I plan to volunteer for the John Street Roundhouse.

Now, I know we all know about that whole Mayan Calendar prediction about December 21st 2012 possibly being the last day we have to live.  I ALSO heard however, that somebody supposedly descended from a Mayan says that's all bunk.  Well, I can hope that that's true, and that we all live to see the year 2013.

Well, that aside, I hope you enjoy your year, and what you have planned for it.  And here's hoping we're still here for December the 22nd this year.

Hey, mate, how are you?

Well, I switched class courses at George Brown College. First I was in Building Renovation Technician, now, at the behest of one of my teachers, I'm in Building Supervisory Technician.

In the Canadian political world, we had another federal election last month. The NDPs managed to snag over 100 seats in Parliament this year (a first for them, and a great victory). Unfortunately, Stephen Harper won again, and he even got his majority government.

That reminds me of something else government-wise. One of my friends lost faith in the government of Canada (or as it's known now, "The Harper Government") following some cases of police brutality following the Toronto G20 summit. Details on them can be found here. -> [link]

Also, I managed to land myself a part-time summer job last year. I'm working at a small-time grocery store run by one Joe Cirone. I'm not on the clock now (I don't even plan to go back on until August due to the fact I have classes now until the 24th, then July until August 15th.

I also found a couple stuff I found quite interesting online. For one, I've found this interesting show called "The British Railway Series" done by this guy called Simon Martin. The show follows the steam engines of a shed called Copley Hill, located in Leeds. The show is planned to be 30 episodes, and currently has 17 (and a couple filler eps). If you're interested, here's the pilot so you can determine if it's your thing.

Part 1 -> [link]
Part 2 -> [link]

I also started following this DA artist here. -> :iconsony-mae: Her stuff is quite good, though her writing... leaves something to be desires, let's just say.

I've been trying to makee a follow-up to my latest picture, but because I barely had any idea of what that'd be, it's been moving at a snail's pace (which is why I haven't posted in almost a year). I have it mostly done, I just need to add a few more things before colouring and posting it.

I'd add more, but I think I'm running outta stuff to say (& space to write). So, I'm just going to end it here.

Well, that's good to hear.

Ah, yes, I heard there was an election there recently. Forgive me though, as I'm not all too knowledgeable of Canadian politics and the issues currently embroiling their community.

To be honest though, I too have started to become disilusioned with politics in general. I think it is because the era of ideology has died and bureaucracy has taken over, as well as kissing up to any other country (that's especially the case here)

Hmm, sounds interesting, though the steam engine hasn't always been one of my major areas.

Well, with me it's the polar opposite. I do think I can write fairly well, but my art is abismal.

I haven't had much time to write though, as exams have gobbled up my time like a virus. Though thankfully, those exams are now over.
