HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEH!

That's right, Lil Blue is 17 TODAY! YAY ME! Technically I'm not officially 17 until 9:29am, but WHAT THE HECK! Why not start the party early!

Yes I actually stayed up so I could write this journal, even though my mom was nagging me to go bed! I have a full day planned to celebrate my 17 years on the earth!

First thing is I demanded yesterday that I be driven to school, I think it's fair that I don't have to be subjected to the misery of taking the fracking bus today. Even though it's going to be HOT AS TEH DEVIL, I'm gonna wear my new and most favorite hoodie! It's white, black, pink, blue, and electric GREEN! It's kinda obnoxious but I LOVE IT. And I think I may be getting a cake, a friend of mine said she was going to make me one, ain't that sweet? I am LUFFED!

After school gets out, me and my bday crew are gonna hop in a shiny limo and head to san francisco for the evening. We'll probably go have dinner at the Rainforest Cafe (if anyone knows about that ). Then we'll hit the mall and do some shopping, go to the metreon, and PIER 39! We're gonna have so much fun, you'll probably GO BLIND! We'll be out in the streets until about 11 and then head back home around 12. Then I'll sleep late and bask in my birthday plunder (presents I mean). Speaking of which, I got my camera yesterday! It's SEXEH! It takes amazing pictures, it's the sassiest camera I've ever seen, and it's ALL MINE!

Well I better go to bed, I will need all the rest I can get for my big day! TOOTLES!

Lil Blue

P.S. - birthday giftart for mehs anyone? I will luff you forever, SUPRISE ME.


CONTEST WINNERS!
1st Place - 's Lyric [link] and 's Suki [link]
Why: When I looked at Lyric he was so striking to me, his black face mask and markings were in great contrast to his coat and he had the most adorable mark on his back, reminded me of wings! FR did an awesome job with his design because I could easily make the connection between him and his parents. At first I didn't think I wanted Isis to have a foal whose coat was blue like hers, but Suki's coat works very nicely with her black and purple markings, and it guessed it was ok for one of the foals to look more like Isis. I also found cheesey's little comic at the top to be amusing.

2nd Place - 's Vishwara [link] , 's Rai (white) [link] , AND 's Aqua (white) [link]
Why: There's a three-way tie here because I just honestly couldn't make one these be a third place, they were all on the same level to me! Vishwara was another one of those purple foals that made so much sense because of her parents being red and blue, but I found some her markings to be a little too much for me (not to say it wasn't an awesome entry Kate! ), I like to keep it simple. Rai was interesting because of the blue squiggles on her white coat, and I liked the purple hair with white tips, though again I found her markings to be a little to crazy for me (I still REALLY like her though, perhaps a giftart for you Phantom?). Aqua was BEAUTIFUL, loved her markings, but I felt white was not likely with the pairing, (same went for Ignis about the black)

3rd Place - 's Flash (blue) [link] and 's Niveu (white) [link]
Why: Blue is my absolute favorite color so I couldn't resist Flash's blue coat, I also admired the zigzag-like pattern that went over his shoulders, very unique. I like the lavender color of Niveu's markings and their shape, but like I said before, I didn't think Isis' foal would be white.

Honorable Mentions: Although you guys didn't win the main prizes, I wanted to acknowledge you and your entries because I found them interesting, but now quite what I was looking for in the foals' designs.

Most Colorful goes to 's Ronin [link] because I think I can see like every color of the rainbow man!

Most Adorable goes to 's Callicarpa [link] because she's peeking out from behind her mommy on her spindly little legs

Most Bad Ass goes to 's Fire Storm (red) [link] because he just looks so bad ass!

Most SHINY goes to 's Vision [link] because the foal has THREE GEMS!

PRIZES!
1st - Pic fully colored with a detailed background
2nd - Pic fully colored with a simple background
3rd- colored pic of your character with no background

For the first place peoples, don't forget that we share ownership of the foals . You won't need my permission to draw them, but if Isis or Aldebaran are in the picture you know ya have to give me ma props!

For all the winners: You guys should send me a note explaining what you want your prize to be! If you don't get them in, I'll just do something I think you'll like.
