You've had a Busy Day Today

I did my first shift at a new job today. There was a lot of bleach and useless gloves involved so I decided to take my favourite claddagh ring off for safety and put it in my purse. After work I went to Subway and Starbucks to celebrate a successful shift then went to class. I drew a nice picture that I had a complete story planned out for; it was gonna be totally funny with another Minecraft/ Yogscast reference and all kinds of good stuff.

Unfortunately on my way home I went to put my ring back on and nearly crashed searching for it in my purse. When I got home and had completely dumped the contents of my purse without finding it, I nearly started crying. I've had that ring since I was fourteen and worn it every day for six years. Everyone in my family has one but me now. I feel so sad. A part of me is missing!

Anyways this is the picture I drew.

I was gonna write something along the lines of "that's a very nice pair of legs you have there" but I just don't have the heart for it right now.

This is the most depressing blog post I've written which is a shame because that elephant is so freaking cute!

Enjoy.

Give Me Space Bro!

I almost didn't draw anything today. It's a sad day when I'm bored to tears in economics and can't even draw to take my mind off the boringness that is the lecture. Let me describe what basically caused me to throw up everywhere from pure boredom.

Wake up in the morning feeling like a well-rested P Diddy, grab my hat I'm out the door, I'm not lookin too pretty. Before I leave brush my teeth with sensodyne cuz when I talk to people I don't want morning breath. 

I'm driving down the street, street, get a good parking spot, spot heading up to class, class. Picking an isolated seat, hope no one sits beside me they better not want to chat with meeee.

Oh no here they come, the class is filling up, today they decide to sit right beside me. Glad I brushed my teeth cuz they're so close it's not comfy! OH oh oh OH NO oh oh oh oh NO! 

Oh no I can't draw, they will see and judge me! They're not good, just silly pictures meant to entertain and please. Oh no I'm so bored this lecture's killing me! Oh oh oh oh NO! Oh oh oh oh No!

Umm ya so this is all I managed to draw and I think the silly boys sitting on either side of me might have still seen it even though I tried to be verrrry stealthy:

Please Don't Be Offended

Please don't be offended. I really don't think this is an offensive drawing but you never know how some people will react.

It was Taylors idea, just gonna throw that out there.

It's the Pope jumping on a trampoline.

Hilarious? Yes. Offensive? I hope not. Good? Not of great quality but one of my favourites. I mean, he looks like he's having a blast! And how could you not? Trampolines are AWESOME.

I was pretty bored when I drew this but my boredom definitely increased as class went on and the Pope turned into something else completely:

It's like what Lady Gaga would want the Pope to look like in one of her music videos.

And no, Taylor, I will not draw the Pope in a two piece bathing suit.

Surprise Post!

Classroom Cartoons has had over 500 views (most likely the same people viewing it multiple times) and I thought I ought to get my Facebook Fan Page some more Likes so those people who don't check back very often will know when I've put up a new post. Smart thinking right?

So here's the link:

A Classic

This next drawing is something I've been doing for many years. It's one of my very first classroom cartoons I suppose. I remember I started drawing this because I had a book that told you what your doodles meant and I didn't really have any doodles besides squiggly lines, so the next time I was bored I decided to draw something and this is what came out of it:

It's a beautiful ocean scene with writing in the sand. A happy starfish is sunbathing on a rock while a sea snail scoots along the ocean floor and a school of fish do whatever it is schools of fish do. Further out in the ocean we see a dolphin jumping and frolicking around while a big blue whale just chills. I have many different versions of this drawing in my notebooks.

If you're wondering what that writing is, it's a description of ham in a can for my advertising class.The best descriptions are crossed out thought, including "cat food", "gross/vile" and "speckled". It's too bad I didn't get the next line in the picture though because it's the best part, it says "apocalypse/ bomb shelter ready". And honestly, the makers of this ham in can should totally hire me because I've thought of a bunch of commercials and ads they can use regarding the apocalypse and bomb shelters.

On another note, I'm totally curious about where that doodle book is now and what it would say about the drawings I do now....

Happy It's My Mom's Birthday Day!

A happy St Patrick's Day to everyone and an even happier Happy Birthday to my mom! I think she's like 25 this year or something...

I make fun of my own drawings a lot on this blog, I mean, it's kind of the point of the whole thing. But I got to a whole new level today.

While waiting to write a joke of an english midterm, I thought to myself "I should draw a leprechaun in honor of St Patrick's Day". I thought it would be nice and easy. Little green man, how hard could it be? Well, friends, let me show you what the worst drawing I have ever done looks like.

He's supposed to be clicking his heels together in a happy little dance beside his pot of gold.

The bird is because it was so terrible I wanted to destroy the stupid little leprechaun. I was actually a little embarrassed while I was drawing him.

In real life, he looks like the devil. On here, he kinda just looks like everything else I draw...

What is This?

It was supposed to be a dancing tree. Then it was going to be a dancing tree and sun. It turned into neither.

I don't think they're dancing.

The trees kinda just chillin' hoping to one day be able to walk and meet up with Treebeard. Meanwhile a sneaky cat is peeking out from behind him, probably up to no good.

And then there's the sun. He reminds me of an old man trying to be cool. His sunglasses are crooked, possibly broken. He's got little t-rex arms that can't even reach his mouth. And he's about as close as possible to that tree and nothing has set on fire... so clearly he's not very powerful either. He's really just kinda creepy.

It's a strange picture.

Bachelor #1

Fire-Breather Elephant-Legs may have a pet unicorn, have tea with tigers, fight skytrain-eating killer whales AND be able to fly, but she doesn't have any male companionship. Oh well, she's a nice strong woman and all that female-power and stuff, I mean who needs a man when you can fly?

But perhaps the reason she has not met a man yet is because of her sword arms, fire breathing abilities and elephant legs. It's a bit daunting.

Well here comes a man that might be able to keep up with her:

Fire-Arms Raptor-toes.

Get it? Fire. Arms. He's got guns for arms!

Yes those are supposed to be guns.

He also shoots water out of his mouth so that's kind of convenient.

Special Guest Stars- Part 2

Today we continue looking at people (aka my sisters) trying to be as cool as me.

And Sydnee tries so hard. She's certainly got potential but I don't think anyone can really be as cool as me. 

There's a lot going on in this picture so I'll try to explain it as best as I can.

• There is a rocket launching from Earth called Nemo because one fin is smaller than the other
• There is a cow chillin' on the moon. He must've gotten tired from constantly jumping over it
• There is also a trampoline on the moon which might explain how the cow usually gets over the moon
• Pluto is a "sad panda"
• There is a cat in a space suit- sorry- a MONKEY in a space suit...
• Meanwhile on Earth someone is magnified 3000 times and demanding a woman find his "shoe" at gunpoint 

Did I get it all? 

Coming soon:

Is there a man out there for Fire-Breather Elephant-Legs? 

Special Guest Stars- Part 1

Friday was bonding time with my sisters (except the one that's in Belize, she can suck it). I wanted to draw a little picture and they wanted to be featured in my blog so we all drew pictures. Sadly, the things they drew simply can not compare to what I drew (Trevor the Unicorn, I know right?).

Anyways, this first picture is from Nicole's brain. It doesn't really make sense to me. Maybe she's been volunteering too much time at elementary schools and is starting to think like the kids there.

The worst part is she doesn't draw like a third grader, she just draws whatever she wants like a third grader. And, in this case, it's a guitar that will bite your fingers, a snake-pen, a sad panda, a triangle monster and a nest which, if I remember correctly, is supposed to be sushi. Right....

Fun fact: while I was drawing Trevor the Unicorn, Nicole looks up from her drawings and tells me Trevor looks just like a drawing of a horse one of the kids in her class did that day. She's in grade two.

The Third Wish

Previously on Classroom Cartoons:

A picture of Fire-Breather Elephant-Legs having tea with a tiger. It was thought that having a pet tiger was Fire-Breather Elephant-Legs third wish from the Genie that she released. Turns out, she was just having tea with a tiger.

Her third wish? Something magical, powerful, mysterious!

It was Trevor:

The Unicorn.

What else could it have been? A pterodactyl? Ya right...

I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot of this pink little guy in the future, peeking out from behind a tree in a meadow... jumping over rainbows... eating small animals... running away from Voldemort...

I Need New Pens

Snakes are on this plane. They are passengers on the orange, specially designed Snake Plane.On this plane, no one gets used for a skipping rope, there are all the furry rodents one could possibly need to eat, several heating lamps to lie under while you digest, and all the in-flights movies are films with snakes in them that have been altered to make the snakes look good. For example, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is told from the basilisks point of view and it's only doing what it wants, which just so happens to be destroy all mudbloods because they helped keep him locked up under the girls washroom for so many years. He's just glad to finally be free!

Sounds nice right?

Unfortunately for the snakes, there's a hungry-for-all-kinds-of-transportation killer whale waiting for them.

They never got to see how the Basilisk made his big escape though the Great Hall, right past Dumbledore, out the front doors and into the Forbidden Forest...

P.S.  It would appear that I need new pens.
