Do you have the guts to answer these questions and re-post as The Controversial Survey?<br />No, No. I don't think so. ;3<br /><br />2. Would you do meth if it was legal?<br />No. That stuff is nasty, I agree. Things like Pot, speed and acid I would probably legalise. But with certain conditions.<br /><br />3. Abortion: for or against it?<br />Once again I agree.<br /><br />For it all the way. No one should tell women what to do with their bodies and those who are against it have never had that sort of situation in their lives/ are Christian Men ('religion' and 'men' have barely any place in that sort of argument) / have never actually adopted the kids they force women into having when they can't actually take care of one. They also throw around junk science like 'dairy of a foetus'. usually when an abortion takes place, it's barely a life form. HOWEVER- there are some women who do need to learn to use contraceptives properly so this argument wouldn't have to keep arising. <br /><br />4. Do you think the world would fail with a female president?<br />No. the world wouldn't fall apart. Margaret thatcher was a BAD first prime minister but she didn't destroy the world.<br /><br />5. Do you believe in the death penalty?<br />Yes. I hate to say it, but frankly, some of these guys get hauled away fro the rest of their lives and either live through hell *and end up committing suicide when they leave) or end up in a prison where live is cooshy. I'm not kidding, there are some people in America on death row with big screen TVs, a weight room, good food, leisure areas...the stuff innocent people have to really work for! it's not fair. <br /><br />But it would have to be for a good reason. Murder is the main one. If someone killed/raped/tortured my little sister, I would want more then to just see the person fry.<br /><br />6. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?<br />Yup. It works in Amsterdam, it would work here. Have any of you guys lived in university halls? EVERYONE was on dope. I am not kidding. and frankly- It didn't change anything. I'd rather see people smoking pot then binge drinking. That makes you violent. pot makes you stare at Windows media player for 5 hours. :P<br /><br /><br />7. Are you for or against premarital sex?<br />FOR. FOR. FOR. and for god sake- TEACH THE KIDS SEX AT SCHOOL. hiding it from them wont stop them having sex! THEY JUST END UP DOING IT WRONG. And yes, Sara Palin is a hypocrite when it comes to her daughter. Her own daughter is a sign that abstinence only education does not work.<br /><br />8. Do you believe in God?<br />Nope.<br /><br />9. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?<br />YES. It's not so bad in England, but America has a big problem with same sex marriage and aren't you guys supposed to have 'separation of church and state' ? It's not going to hurt to legalise it. it wont FORCE churches to marry gay people,&nbsp; just the ones that WANT to do it. I have actually been through the 'official' list as to why gay marriage is illegal and it sucks. it's made of absolute ignorance and by religious nuts. <br />&nbsp;But it will come. My generation and the ones below it are all very pro-gay marriage. Half the kids these days are accepting if they're bi-sexual or gay. It will come, and no one can do anything about it.<br /><br />Haaaaa. :)<br /><br />10. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA?<br />I can't really argue since I'm English but I will say yes. if it's illegal, don't so it. I've been hearing of how all the jobs are leaving. Same here, but since England is hard to get to (asides from France, but it's still hard)&nbsp; they out source all the jobs to India. &gt;.&lt;<br /><br />11. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it?<br />ack...I would say yes, but she'd only get full custody when she reaches 16. 12 is way to young and you don't know all the details of being a mother. You're still leaning about the consequences of your actions at that age, no matter how mature you are. It also depends if she actually has given birth yet? Because if not, then it might kill her to give birth that young. it has happened before, but the girl was VERY lucky.<br /><br />12. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen?<br />...it's already 18 here. :P<br /><br />13. Should the war in Iraq be called off?<br />YES. GREAT BRITON SHOULD NOT HAVE FOLLOWED IN THE FIRST PLACE. I could go on FOR EVER about the Iraq war (or should I actually say 'Afghanistan, but G.W.Shrub seems to have forgotten what the war was about and which god damn country it was supposed to be in in the first place). <br />&nbsp;I'm sorry but after keeping up with it for about what- 7 years is it now- I'm more then convinced it was just a ploy to get Saddam out of the way to get the oil. It wasn't about getting revenge on the small number of Taliban militants in AFGHANISTAN for 9/11. It never was. 'Terrorism' is today's 'communism' except unlike the cold war, thousands of people are dying. the death toll has now WAY exceeded the numbers that died on 9/11 for Both sides and that included civilians and and American soldiers. <br />&nbsp;And thanks a lot bush. Gordon brown was sorting it so we could pull out of Iraq then yo hopped over to us on your 'farewell tour' and convinced to Gordon to SEND MORE ENGLISH TROOPS!? what the hell?<br /><br />...<br /><br />Needless to say, the 'Iraq' war' (or the 'war for oil' as I now call it because I have not been convinced otehr wise when when I tried to find good reasons for the war) is something I feel strongly about. The only 'good' this that has come from this is getting rid of Saddam. he was a baaaaaaad man. But still had nothing to do with the initial 'reason' for the war.<br /><br />And after looking after an American girl this summer, I am applaud at America's lack of interest/knowledge on the war. It seems most of the citizens don't care and honestly eat everything that is fed from the by the media.&nbsp; 'Weapons of mass destruction'? give me a god damn break. They barely had running water.<br /><br />oh and watch 'persepolis'. Different time and area but it gives a strong view of life in Iran just before the gulf war.<br /><br />14. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree?<br />No. After reading this very sad story:<br />http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2008-03-19-cancer-euthanasia_N.htm<br />She wanted to, her doctor was willing to help, yet she was denied, only to do it on her own, without the dignity she deserved. <br /><br />However if it was legalised (it is in Belgium, when my mum is from. Go Belgium!); it would have to be for those over 25/30. because at a teenager and young adult, you haven't experiences enough of the world to see if it gets better, and teenagers have suicidal thoughts because you're at a confusing time. <br /><br />15. Do you believe in spanking your children?<br />Yes. People should do it more often. I never want to see a mother ignore the fact her 4 year old calling hear a 'cunt' again.<br /><br />16. Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?<br />...sure, why not?<br /><br />17. Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama?<br />Obama. YOU GUYS MUST HAVE HIM. PALIN IS ONE HEART ATTACK AWAY FROM BEING PRESIDENT IF MACAIN WINS! D8 That is NOT GOOD. Palin is baaaaaad news. she's Margaret thatcher with more god (and at least more attractive then thatcher :P ).&nbsp; Macain is alright, but Obama is what your country needs, seriously.<br /><br />18. Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?<br />Nope. Bring it. :P.<br /><br /> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:acid_shadow:12290 2008-09-30T22:26:56Z 2009-01-02T12:55:33Z The 100 words I have to do art to.

From the youngest artist to the oldest, he loves art and expression. now thanks to the hype of the media, he's gone.<br /><br />Mark, you were an awesome man. A true beacon of art, inspirational and learning and a role model for children. I had hoped to get my tiny voice out to reach you, but it was not to be. the media just have a louder voice then me even when I wrote to the BBC and news papers. Maybe you were just too good for this world.<br /><br />But I wont let your life go to waste. I will from now on inspire others. I have often done anyway, but I want to actually go out and help other with their art, young and old. teach them the fun part of art and the beauty of expression. Share my inspirations and lessons and learn from all acts. young and old can teach us about art and the power of expression. <br /><br />It's the least I can do for someone who inspired so many thousands of Children.<br /><br /><img alt="" src="http://www.bringonthesalads.com/home/images/mark-speight.jpg" /><br /><br /><br />Thank You.<br /><br /><img alt="" src="http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/acid_shadow/other/sig.jpg" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />(EDIT: Dear daily mail. FUCK OFF. GET OFF MY PLANET YOU BUNCH OF SENSATIONALIST ASSHOLES. THANK YOU. )<br /> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:acid_shadow:11690 2008-04-08T16:25:52Z 2008-04-08T16:27:46Z <br /> You know...we all have our heroes when we're children. Weather it be fictional or real, but there is always someone or something that shapes your path in life. I've had many 'heroes' in my life, going from my family, to friends and teachers and yes, one or two 'celebrities'. <br />One is Mark Speight. ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/cbbcstars/cbbc_star.shtml?mark_speight http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Speight )<br /><br />Who is Mark Speight? He was a man who presented on a children's art show 'Smart' on the BBC (or CBBC in this case). He's been on the show for as long as I can remember and only last year, I literary bumped into him whilst at the Tate modern and he looked and signed my sketch book. ( http://acidshadow.deviantart.com/journal/10447013/ ). <br /><br /><img alt="" src="http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/acid_shadow/other/sig.jpg" /><br /><br /><br />I didn't bother him too much since he looked as if he was with friends, but I told him that he was a big inspiration and it was awesome to still see him on the art scene. He was quite happy to accept my sketch book and his friends were not bothered by my appearance after a stream of school kids.<br /><br />Well, he's been in the news a lot recently. His fianc&amp;#233;e who was also a children's presenter on another of Mark's shows was found dead in their home after a mishap with drugs. Now the devastated Mark is missing, and although I try not to pry to much in the lives of others, when it comes to this, I'm genuinely worried. <br /><br />I guess there is little I can do, asides for keep an eye out, but like anybody, Mark is one man among millions. he could be anywhere by now. But I guess this is my bad attempt at getting my little voice out.<br /><br /><br />I'm 20 years old and in my first year of Animation studies in the university of Portsmouth. One of the main reasons I picked up a pencil and continued with art is because of this man.<br /><br />Now I've seen nasty comments floating around about how the may have hurt Natasha his fianc&amp;#233;e, or how he was on cocaine and even gems like this:<br /><br />"Is it surprising that children become out of control teenagers when their role models are seriously flawed?"<br /><br />...The thing is, Mark wasn't flawed. In fact, he was the best presenter out there. Children aren't going to take drugs or hurt their lovers because they saw it on the news, come on, give kids more credit then that! Mark did! And besides, he's been proven innocent and hasn't been charge, so what are you trying to say?<br /><br />Besides, everyone shows a different face to the world then the one they really have. And the face I saw was one that pushed me to doing art and at the end of the day I ask any child here in the UK about art, and they pretty much all say that mark from Smart helped them express themselves. At the end of the day, I do not care what they have done. It's been proved he didn't hurt the one he loved and he's not on drug charges. Weather or not drugs are in the equation or the fact I disagree with the use of cocaine is neither here or there. There is a man out there who is crushed and probably lost as to who his is right now and that man was an icon to thousands of children.<br /><br />My ending word is this: <br />To all you scorning parents and misguided teenagers:Mark is not a bad man. In fact, he is a very good man. I'm am sitting here doing art because of this man. My only hope is that he is safe, so that he can continue to do good. #<br /><br />I highly doubt that Mark or his friends and fmaily will ever see this, but here is my message to mark:<br /><br />Don't give up on yourself. Grief will hurt and you are probably feeling like it is truly the end. That is something I can only imagine and then it is not enough. I'm sure you feel not just grief but guilt, hopelessness and possibly anger and all the other emotions that come through a&nbsp; terrible time such as this.<br /><br />&nbsp;But for the children you inspired, entertained and taught growing up; it is certainly not the end. Even if you cannot return to what you loved, you can live on in something else and do good for the life ahead of you and for Natasha. <br />&nbsp;when in doubt, use the art you loved so much to express yourself when the time is right. You may find a new life in that (and it doesn't necessarily mean leaving the one you have now behind).<br /><br />Oh, and listen to 'the hours- Ali in the Jungle'. A pretty powerful song in itself and the reason behind why the song exists is also very inspiring and I guess pretty relevant to this situation:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjezSMZtB-c<br />http://www.lyricsmania.com/lyrics/hours_the_lyrics_10720/narcissus_road_lyrics_33877/ali_in_the_jungle_lyrics_366810.html<br /><br />Your fan- Emeline.<br /><br />and that is all.<br /><br /><a name="cutid1"></a><div class="ljcut" text="Neopets hackage whine and free requests">________________________________ ______ ____ ___ ___ _<br />In other news...<br />yeah I know, kinda pathetic, but my oldest Neopets account under 'em0111' has been hacked (yes.

I don't care that much for the rest asides from pets. I mean- yeah I had something like 200,000NP built up over 6 years, but i don't really care for that. I just hope I can get it back and they don't ditch my lovely pets. i have something like 4 other accounts to build up from again, so it doesn't matter that much. I just find it kind of petty to see someone hack into a game of all things.<br /><br />however they seem to making me richer, what with all the rare items going into my store. But I have this horrible feeling they're cheating, and the neopets team are gonna freeze it. But I should get it back once my report gets to the team. I had strong evidence to prove it was my account, so i should get it back.<br /><br />dammit, I just got back into it as well. Since the summer I've rediscovered neopets and have actually been enjoying it as a stress buster for a while. It's so damn cute. &lt;3<br /><br />oh well, if you have accounts, hopefully if i get it back, I would appreciate a leg up again.

It was like discount-Ibiza!<br />There was so much to do, so much culture and art and yes, the red light district was certainly very interesting. No photos however. I didn't want to get beaten up by pimps and drug dealers from Holland.<br /><br />We stayed at the world famous 'Hans Brinker budget hotel' ( <a href="http://www.hans-brinker.com/">http://www.hans-brinker.com/</a> and more pictures of the place here: <a href="http://flickr.com/search/?q=hans%20brinker%20hotel&amp;w=all">http://flickr.com/search/?q=hans%20brinker%20hotel&amp;w=all</a>). And it really was a budget hotel. Cheap and hostel-like. My locker was even broken. And yes, I did doodle on it. If you ever stay in room one, you'll see my retarded scribbles all over locker B. (<a href="http://acidshadow.deviantart.com/art/Hans-brinker-graffiti-76763548">http://acidshadow.deviantart.com/art/Hans-brinker-graffiti-76763548</a> )<br /><br />They have the most kick ass adverts for their hotel too. I bought a load of their postcards. Their tag-line is ' It can't get any worse...but we'll try!'<br /><br />Anyway, Amsterdam was wonderful.&nbsp;<br /><br />Me and a few friends went to the Van Goth museum (which was pretty awesome seeing this guys works in the 'flesh' so to speak.<br />We then went to the Stedelijk Museum, which I totally dig because I love modern art. It's fun and insightful, even if it's minimalistic to the point of nothingness. it was really inspirational. I love that modern/graphic art style.<br /><br />( and yes, the entrance was like a space station! :D)<br /><br /><a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/acid_shadow/pic/000a1kt8/"><img height="240" alt="" width="179" border="0" src="http://pics.livejournal.com/acid_shadow/pic/000a1kt8/s320x240" /></a><br /><br />For example:&nbsp; there was an instillation movie of a load of Elvis' (Evli?) floating in a pink fluid and sometimes twitching as the camera endlessly went deeper and deeper into the pink fluid.<br /><br /><a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/acid_shadow/pic/0009h6f0/"><img height="240" alt="" width="304" border="0" src="http://pics.livejournal.com/acid_shadow/pic/0009h6f0/s320x240" /></a><br /><br />Yeah.<br /><br />And there was graffiti all around the museum.

Bad anim-electronics AHOY! :D that was incredibly funny.&nbsp;<br /><br />Then we went shopping. :D I got tons of cool stuff but the total WINNER was a FEATHERED RAPTOR PLUSHIE.

But now it's all out. <br />Not only have they been caught slaughtering several Whales, one of the hunts ended in the slaughter of a mother and her calf. They were filmed being hunted and killed. <br /><br />A MOTHER AND HER FUCKING CALF. <br /><br /><img src="http://scienceblogs.com/deepseanews/art.whales.ap.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br /><br />For fuck sake. This kind of shit makes me wished I had continued my biological studies and became an natural researcher. You don't have to destroy life to learn from it. But they aren't learning. It's food and oil. To them; it's just big amounts of food and oil that moves.<br /><br /><br />I can't describe how much this outrages me. Lets just say it's on par with 'King bush' taking wolves and bald eagles off the endangered list on behalf of the 'livestock industry'.&nbsp; Funny, I don't remember much live stock being kept where wolves were being preserved, nor it being in any immediate threat from wolves. <br /><br />It's a fucking shame that organizations like PETA and SHAC give those of us who stand for animal rights a really bad name.

I'm gonna be a not-teen any more.<br /><br />That's right, I'm officially no longer gonna be a teenager. I'm alreayd techically an aadult thought becuase here in the UK, you are an adult at 18.<br /><br />I'm not too excited about my birthday. I'm not too fond about leaving my teen years. Is it really that bad if you're kind of... old at 20? As far as I'm concerned I'm still 17. <br /><br />I think being 17 was the best years of my life. I left drama-rama that was high school, gained a bunch of friends, actually enjoyed my education and really started getting my creative freedom. It was full of wackiness, depraved humour, and enjoyable learning. Fun fun fun. :D <br />17 is usually an age I give to my characters actually.<br /><br />I had planned to do loads of things for my birthday. Going to London to be part of a furry convention they were having (2 the ranting gryphon was gonna be there!), Bill baily was performing in brighton tonight and the golden compass was supposedly meant to come out this week but they pushed it back. <br />However like all plans I hold my birthday, nothing ever really happens because it's always set up in a period where everyone's working, no one has money because a Christmas, no one's ever available and they all fuss is about doing something or buying me loads of presents. But all I really wanted to spend time with people. :/<br /><br />however I plan to spend much more time on my 21st actually doing something. I am going to get hammered, dance until my feet are raw, and have loads and loads and loads of fun.<br />Speaking of 21st birthdays, it'll be Scifer's in January. <br /><br />Actually if you Wanna do something for my birthday you can go cheer him up. So far this year he's had to put up with a bunch of hooting dickholes. D:&lt;<br /><br />so please given lots of praise or a least a very clever critique on his work. He'd appreciate that a lot. especially here: http://scifer.deviantart.com/art/Scifer-design-input-desired-70541565<br /><br /><br />A happy badger makes a happy batty. :3<br /><br />oh well, my university hall mates are planning to suffer a small party for me. As in we all go down to the pub or a club. if anyone has any money that is all isn't working...<br /><br />The University course on the other hand his bags and bags of fun. Apparently I been giving the impression that I've not been enjoying the course when it is in fact completely the opposite. I love my course a lot, I made loads of friends, I have a challenge offered to me, I'm working in the thing I love and I'm in a great city. <br /><br />in fact guess what my first animation is to feature? The train monster!&nbsp; ( http://acidshadow.deviantart.com/art/Train-Monsta-40759718&nbsp; )<br /><br /><br />I'll hopefully upload some of my artwork soon but everything is a bit big and unfinished as of the moment. The only bad thing about the course so far is that I have not got much time to do some my own personal drawings. That and they don't do much in the way of traditional animation. Which is a shame because I prefer that 3-D animation. I just don't enjoy 3-D animation as much, it small more of a gaming thing to me. but we get to do traditional animation next year which is all good. :3<br /><br />Anyways that's all from me for now.

urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:acid_shadow:8460 2007-10-10T22:08:40Z 2007-10-10T22:08:40Z HIYA!<br /><br />Shadow here, reporting from Portsmouth university!<br /><br />&nbsp;I'd Thought I'd give you the lowdown&nbsp; on whats been happening in my life so far.&nbsp;<br /><br />The halls in which I'm styaing in are awesome! Ok,&nbsp; they're not on suite and they look kinda&nbsp; grotty,&nbsp; but everyone in my corridor is wonderful and the rooms, water and food&nbsp;are always&nbsp;warm. It's self catred too, whcih is good. Me and my corridor nighbours are already like a big family, it's great! :D<br /><br />My roomate Pheobe is also a sweetie. I only had to share my room with her for 2 weeks so far, and we've all become such good freinds, we were glad to hear she has placement in these same halls, just one floor above us. Thats awesome because she was in emegancy placement, and since we're all getting along so well, she didn't want to leave these halls. So we're really pleased for her, and I'll be getting&nbsp; big room to myself soon, so thats awesome. :3<br /><br />The course is also excellent. The lecurers are all really easy going and friendly, and the course has lots of different aspects to it, it feels like haveing loads of different lessons. It's awesome because it means I'm&nbsp;always doing something, Learning a range of skills and have a good chance of getting in the animation industry with a wide range of skills. Not just in the naimtion process. I'm also never in for a whole day&nbsp; of lessons and I have fridays off, which is also good because this means have time for work, getting a job, socal life and family.<br />&nbsp;Not to mention it means I have alot of time for a certian badgox who I know has been misisng me&nbsp; a whole lot, and I wnat him to know that I miss him too. ;3<br /><br />I've already been doing some life drawing, 3D max skills slessons and basic essay writing and artist anylsis stuff. Whivh is awesome.<br /><br />Not to mention&nbsp; there has been parties, drinking and freebees abound for freshers like me! ;3 I also got to meet my long time internet friend Emsie here too! ( <a href="http://emsiecat.deviantart.com">http://emsiecat.deviantart.com</a>&nbsp;) She's such a hunny. &lt;3<br /><br />so yeah, thats all for now. I still have no real internet. I'm still waiting for my new PC to come in as&nbsp; well. I'm currently using pheobe's lappy or the libary to talk to you guys. So do excuse my silence.<br /><br />I still lurve you guys. &lt;3<br /><br />oh, art post comming up next btw :3 urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:acid_shadow:8433 2007-09-28T22:17:19Z 2007-09-28T22:17:19Z Okies, Just to let you guys know that I'm off to Portsmouth University this saterday to start my course in animation!&nbsp; I'm kinda nervous, excited and batty about the whole thing right now. I've been busy a HELL getting ready for it and it's about to get busyer. <br /><br />I should be finally getting my own free laptop ( 'cause I'm dyslexic if any of you who don't read my descriptions wouldn't know. 8B ) some time in the next month, but until then- I wont have much inetrnet acsess, so you may not hear from me in a while. I'll see how things go.<br /><br />I may also have a roomate for the first 3 weeks, but I'll find out on the day (emergancy placement and all. Yeah, I got the sucky rooms (thats all thanks to BOURNMOUTH UNIVERSITY - thanks a bunch for making your decitions way too late, so you screw up my offers at portsmouth. ¬.¬ ) thats without on on sweet, but it's catred and it's cheaper and at leats it's a place to live. So i lok forward to all that.<br /><br />So until then, please be patient and wish me lots of luck. I'm hoping to see&nbsp;Emsie from the mewtwo temple<a href="http://emsiecat.deviantart.com/"></a> while I'm up there and wish&nbsp;Scifer<a href="http://scifer.deviantart.com/"></a> and his mates a good house-warming party. Hopefully I'll be able to make it, but it depends on whats going on.<br /><br />so yeah, thats whats going on. I'm busy, but when have I ever not been busy?<br /><br />So yeah. just to let you know.<br /><br />&lt;3<br /> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:acid_shadow:7992 2007-09-21T00:04:20Z 2007-09-21T00:04:20Z <p>I.
