MELISSA DEX GUZMAN

No one believes that we have a swimming cat, so… here you go.

Boxes out the door! Bye boxes! :)

Good bye all you boxes.

Our cat likes taking baths. Then she looks like a rat.

Rat cat.

Oh, love of mine.

Finished editing Amanda’s headshots from this morning. I’m pretty happy with the shots in post.

We make fires. Pretty ones, at that.

Typical Saturday night.

Helped Josh make this the other week and we used it to brand the boxes. :)

Spray painting an army of boxes.

Hanging out with these things this weekend.

And just like that I actually went through making a video for every week in the year 2011.

Last video.

Playlist of all video blogs.

All video clips.

Good riddance.

There’s no BlizzCon this year so this is what the convention center in Anaheim will look like.

Kinda legit bummed out about this guys…. I mean, yeah I save $1000 but it’s the only time I can really nerd out over Blizzard games and not get slain for it.

Russell is impressed by Josh’s “Magic Nipple” making skills.

Everyone who calls on the name of the load will be saved.

Best typo ever from MoMo Sushi.

Last week I said good-bye to 7-8 inches of hair. This was the last photo of us together.

Family of cats.

Alex let me paint his nails. Haha.

The best birthday cake.

Thanks mom and dad. :D

Saving all the pinks and reds and whites for Valentines Day. For now, some shitty heart glitter over top of OPI’s Ski Teal We Drop.

This is how you counter agg.

Did my nails but don’t really like them. Waaaaahhhh….

Rimmel Black Satin and OPI I Lily Love You.

All Canadian drugstore polish, woot woot. Quo by Orly’s Celestial Star with Essie’s Shine of the Times. All in preparation to hopefully receive my Deborah Lippmann’s “Edge of Glory” set if it doesn’t get seized at the border.

I’ve developed this mental problem of being addicted to nail polish. Terrible.

Watching the Mythbusters. Surrounded by nerds and SFU/UBC students/professors.

Second attempt at water marbling with half of the Nicki Minaj OPI collection.

It went… okay.

Cleaned it up. Next time I am using tape and not cuticle oil. Shit.

Also I should probably use a better contrasting pair of colours. You can’t see the gold as much as I had hoped…. Eh.

LOL I’m making a fucking mess.

Cut it all off.

Do any of you guys still play MEGU?! Just now a “potion porter” visited Dramilton and gave us 50 elixirs!!!! How does this happen?!

Hay guyz I got a sleeve for my iPad 2 for $5. It’s the ugliest thing I own. This is how I treat my technology.

And this, folks, wraps it up. I’ll probably do a longer post on the making of, but this is the last that you’ll see of this thing. I’ve grown rather attached to it.

Did a “does it fit in my car?” test. Great success.

Took a break to visit Melissa and her cube at work

HEYO, best day ever when Woolworm visits you and then y’all get to go for bubble tea together. Like a fucken episode of SailorMoon, son.

Here’s a screenshot of the dirty companion cube from Portal 2. I’m just posting this as a reference since I haven’t quite decided how dirty I want mine to be. Probably not this dirty. This is too dirty.

Edit: Oh what the fuck, it’s a companion cube from Portal 1 they throw at you. Well, I fucked up. Oh well.

Another view of my paper mâché companion cube gift box. In regards to colour and form: the molded corners are fairly “Portal 1”, however the paint job is based on the companion cube’s revised look in Portal 2. It looks dirty and beat up because I want it based on the companion cube that GlaDOS throws at you at the end of the game. Like I mentioned before, I may have to revise those marks but I might be lazy or out of time. Or both.

More photos when it is in gift box mode with a ribbon wrapped around. :D

For the most part, I have completed the painting of the companion cube. I might touch it up tomorrow if I feel anal enough but considering I’ve run out of time…. CLOSE ENOUGH.

All ready for painting. I should really just give it away as it is. (I won’t.)

Also fucking Gmail raped its changes upon me. I has a sad.

Papier mâché complete. This is a companion cube gift box. I just wanna say that if you ever receive a companion cube from your tragically nerdy girlfriend, it either means she has a ton of time on her hands or she really likes you. So fair warning. And ladies and gentlemen, if you ever make a companion cube for your significant other, you are either crazy or you must really like them.
