The Beginning

Yeah...I'm not going to go rant off about myself in the first blog. It's pointless, and if you're lazy enough not to click the button, that sends you to my profile that actually tells you what I like, and actually want to learn more about me...then you shouldn't be here. Click the button; learn more about me if you wish...you know, oh! And be nice.

Anyways, The Dictator Penguin Trilogies [which has nothing to do with penguins or dictators and doesn't come in a trilogy] is a collection of cartoon doodles that I draw on my white board [which dangles outside my dorm room] or simply scribbled in my notebooks, about once a week or so in my spare time when I could be doing something more productive...like studying. *cough* over-rated *cough*. Cool, so the main character is me, Dezi or Dao in the cartoon [Dark Apathetic Overlord, seems to be another common name for me as well], and I deal with casual everyday girl things...typically guys, classes, you know...all that jazz.

Now...The Dictator Penguin Trilogies used to actually be An Awesomely Incrediblicious Day in the Life of Adria (copyright of Emo Cupcake Inc.) Adria is my little sister, I love her dearly and the AAIDITLOA series was our little project with each other for about a year. Well she got busy, I got impatient, and I went off to create the Trilogies out of my own boredom. I would have called it An Awesomely Incrediblicious Day in the Life of Dezi...or Dezra...whatever but I don't like long names, I didn't want to steal anything else from my sister, and The Dictator Penguin Trilogies did just fine for me.

My best friends are in the Trilogies, but we have created different names for our cartoon-ish selves. There is:

"Dao" or "Dark Apathetic Overlord"--> Me! Yay! Now for those new to this, I'm emo, so my character always has this little dark aura around her, signifying her emo-ness. And by the way don't start with this new emo bullshit you see on the news or in High school groups. Not "Hardcore Emotion" just "Emotional"...Meaning I don't cut myself, where all black [though I do wear a lot of it], wear too much mascara or blush so that it looks like I'm crying...NO! I'm just emotional, I have issues and I could never control them when it comes to personal feelings, don't get me mixed up with these wannabe posers that don't even know what the hell they're doing!

"Real Modern Life" --> My best friend...literally. I hang out with her the most and she will most likely be in all my cartoons. She likes chemistry; she's a nerd...just like me. However she is not a hippy, which...it seems I've been drawing her like a hippy lately with the John Lennon glasses and all but she really isn't one. She prefers living in the...40s-60s area.

"Damn French Whores"--> Another friend...DFW...now, how can you explain her? She's an economic, business centered, politically incorrect, cruel but truthful, "don't give a shit about your opinion on me" type...person. She and I are a lot alike... the only difference being I don't like to express my thoughts as outwardly as her.

"Eccentric Candy" --> Another one of my friends that lives in my dorm, she's the sympathetic one, we all love her but sometimes she's just too nice. We're all afraid she might get stepped on...much like me. She likes English [which all I can say is...ew], and she's an art fanatic.

"MR Ravishing"--> The only guy in the entire cartoon. Dao likes him, he likes Dao [or so all Dao's friends say], but neither of them will admit it. He's a computer geek...I really can't explain him any better than that without getting distracted. You'll find out later that it is really difficult for me not to.

So those are the characters, their names might change over time since, you know, I'm nice and try to make other people happy...so when friends want to change their name...more likely they will. You might occasionally see my sister in here, but that's only because I'm trying to put in some of the episodes of An Awesomely Incrediblicious Day in the Life of Adria...but this is my cartoon, not hers, so unless it has me in there than those episodes can go die. I try to make one of these a week...sometimes two, possibly three...but it all depends on how much I feel like delaying my death in English. I ask you to please comment on my bloggy cartoons...and put a subject you'd like to see, because I suffer from writer's block quite frequently...I'll try my best!
