chu chu~ its me!
Current mood:
 animated
hello to all! i am emmie. short for something but long for em. i wanted to make an introductory post on here since i wanted to save my about me space for something shorter, as well as talk about what i want to post on here.
so... what is there to say about myself? well, im an artist. my main inspirations come from early/mid 2000s cartoons, 70s shoujo, and the works of hirohiko araki. the first two are the most prominent honestly. ive been drawing since i was in kindergarten but i dont think i really started getting serious about it until i was 12. the closest i got to "serious work" prior to that was when i made a bunch of pokemon sprite edits as a 10/11 year old. unfortunately, ive lost all of those edits because they were on an old laptop that died. the forums i posted them too are gone as well. i have stuff i made while using a windows vista (ew) tower that belonged to my mom, but i dont think thats really the same. nowadays its rare that i make pixel art. im just very accustomed to traditional and digital pieces now.
i am a Music Man. music is practically like crack for me. if i havent listened to something throughout the day then i think its a day wasted. im a record collector and ive run out of space in my collection! i dont have milk crates, just some bamboo record holders that sit on my floor. ive got some cds as well buuuut... vinyl is superior. i dont have many 45s and the ones i do have are mostly peter frampton singles. for my taste, id say its kind of all over the place. i dont mind listening to new things. in fact, i like listening to stuff outside of my comfort zone! i would say that i primarily listen to progressive and psychedelic rock (60s/70s/2010s primarily in terms of decades). my favorite artists are king gizzard & the lizard wizard, t. rex, humble pie, mgmt, and the lemon twigs. a little all over the place but all rock in one way or another. im fond of artists like death grips and saint pepsi as well. i can tell you over 300 albums ive listened to in full because, yes, i really do have that much free time, and the much of a need for something to listen to. the way i look at it is that i dont want to be stuck with a "Your Music Bad. My Music Good" mindset. variety is the spice of life or some sh*t like that (im partial to saffron).
my other assorted interests pertain to video games and anime/manga. i like bandori a lot; my favorite groups are roselia and afterglow. i like jojos bizarre adventure a ton. from eroica with love is one of my favorite mangas. gregory horror show is my go to anime rec because its just that good. ive been playing pokemon for most of my life. ace attorney and professor layton are two franchises i really enjoy (LOCALIZE AAI2 CAPCOM YOU COWARDS). animal crossing is nice for kicking back and enjoying. um, im really into magent magent (jojo) and avery (pokemon sword/shield). ...theres not much else for me to say here ^^;
i dont think im gonna use the blog function to really post short things, i like to ramble sometimes. i wanna use it to talk about the albums i listen to as well!! i was gonna be a music reviewer for my high schools newspaper but uh... that paper didnt come to fruition until my senior year. and that paper was also one of photojournalisms projects. and i didnt have any interest in taking photojournalism. so this is now my place to talk about tunes.
im just now realizing how long this is but if you bothered to read this, thank you~! i get ahead of myself sometimes.
