It is day 4, right? Just kidding. So, these tasks seem to be getting more and more inane. I thought there was a little glimmer of hope when I was asked to 'expand my snapshots' to include another character and write about it from their viewpoint. I thought maybe (!) my characters were actually going to be these secondary characters, the people still involved with the scene but observing it, so that I could create a character and make them my own rather than having them be people I actually know. Because then I can't let my mind make up crazy stuff about them because it's just like, "No, they wouldn't do that." Huff.
I'm thinking of doing these tasks with the play that I actually started working on at uni. Maybe it would help me with that. But in all likelihood, it probably won't.
Aside from that, I made leaps in my drawing today! I used to sketch what I wore everyday for a few months back when I was sixteen. Because that's what teenagers do, y'all. At least in my world they did. And so when it came to what I would draw, the narcissistic part of my brain was like 'duh, draw yourself!' So I did. And scanned it into the computer. And then had no bloody clue what to do because I've never coloured on gimp before. Tutorial time!! After which I was all wised up and probably over-confident, to be honest. Anyway, it turned out really nice and I can't wait to post it tomorrow, after I work out how on earth to save it without all these darn layers...
