I watched a movie last night called "Peurs du noir", which translates to "Fears of the Dark". It's a bunch of animated short films about fears people have, with a French woman talking about her fears between shorts. Overall, it was a slow paced movie, but each story was very entertaining, and the animation was outstanding!!
Anyways, the point of my telling you about this is the fact that I've fallen in love with an animation. It's exactly what I look for in cartoons and every other media. So great! The artist is a French woman named Marie Caillou, who does a lot of web animations, clothing designs, and other media. Most of her work is Japanese inspired and it's all amazing.
I'm considering getting a fairly large chunk of ink on me all based on her art. I've put some ideas together so far, but nothing final yet.
Here is her site in case you care to check out more of her work.

Here are some of her illustrations:

Today I went to the zoo with Melina and Nate. I love the zoo. I was bummed we didn't get to see the penguins and it was raining almost the whole time we were there, but I still had a ton of fun.
I took a bunch of pictures and recorded videos using my cell phone, which sucks, and made a silly video for all of you so you can feel like you were at the zoo too! Pay attention to the part about the Gorilla!! Haha.
Enjoi!
