Hai everyone!
( ◞･౪･)
Back in Chicago, my friends wanted me to draw a picture for them. I agreed to draw for two of my friends; the first drawing was of Kylo and Rey from Star Wars, and the second was Todoroki from My Hero Academia. I didn't get a chance to finish it before I left for Wisconsin and since then, have procrastinated and have drawn many many different things... I'll be visiting Chicago soon, so I decided to sit down and finally finish it.
Here he is!
Uninked and strangely muscular for his age... I think this drawing also took me a little longer than normal because I couldn't get over how young he is and all the muscle he has. It's as if my hand were saying, "No, this shouldn't be! Don't draw it!!"
It just made no sense... I get it, he's training to be a hero and all, but it still makes no sense. That's anime for you. Anyway, while I was drawing, I got so caught up with drawing that I forgot to take pictures.
Here is the long, but still not so long, drawing process:
I actually can't remember how long it took me to draw this. I started off with drawing him with just a regular lead pencil, but finished it with my bluuuue non-photo pencil. I love that it's blue, but I don't like how thick the tip of it is. I think that's because I'm used to drawing with lead pencils.
Digression: State Fair Food!
This is the Brat I took a picture of after I devoured most of it. Lol. It was so good. I also ate a chocolate funnel cake and completely forgot to take a picture of it.
I'll remember to take lots of pictures next time! I took pictures of everything else though! I had to bite it at least a few times before I took a picture though because... I couldn't wait to eat it. I don't know how bloggers can sit there and take a picture of their food before they eat.
I went to the state fair on two different days! I promise I didn't eat all this in one day!
These are the Jalapeno White Cheese dipped in marinara and jalapeno ranch dressing. It was the first food I ate of many! The cheese was OOZING out. That's Wisconsin cheese for you.
All of my coworkers told me that the cream puff was also a must have.
I had to stand there for a minute and figure out how to eat the thing... the cream puffs I'm used to are the little round cream puffs with a little cream inside; you know, the ones you get in the frozen section of the store. I sort of ripped pieces of the breading off and dipped it in the cream, which, by the way, tasted very light and fluffy.
It was afternoon when I had eaten this food and I hadn't had my caffeine yet, which is a must. So I bought an iced mocha. I thought it would be like any other mocha, but they added these little mocha chips in it which gave me something to crunch on in the heat.
One of the Chiropractors at the office I work at recommended that I try the Bison meat:
I hear there is a bar nearby that sells Bison Burgers. That's my next place to check out!
The State fair was literally, fried food heart attack heaven. That's the name and the process: eat amazing fried food, have a heart attack, and land in heaven.
These are fried olives topped with melted cream cheese.
It was tempting to go back for seconds, but my goal was to try many different kinds of foods. When I heard there was Elotes at the fair, I had to find them!!
Yaaasss! It was like back home. Apparently Mexican style corn isn't popular in Wisconsin. You'd have to search far and wide to find it. Or make it at home.
I know... I ate a lot... but this is HONEY ICE CREAM dipped in Chocolate
It didn't even have time to melt. After that, I sampled a small piece of pure maple sugar.
This stuff just melts in the mouth; it's dangerous. It wouldn't take long to go through an entire bag of it.
