Description
Whew! Finally finished this one! It's been in PS limbo for a good while.This is an update to my original catsme complete with my ipod video, lightboard and Fujitstu laptop: Alucard.
Like the original [link] this spoofs how I like to multitask and seem to be much more productive if I do.
Thus I am always researching, writing/editing, sketching, inking, and painting. Sometimes this is also combined with watching TV/movie, listening to music and playing video games.
Extra arms optional (but they would help if we all had them). Don't try this at home kids.
Catsme is (c) to Me

How's that? You're a westerner yourself, aren't ye? After all, NC is only a mite south of where I dwell in VA.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yet here you live, in the western world! The globe isn't so divisive anymore. And anywhere that is, shouldn't be. ; ) How's NC this week? I hear VA is in droughts, though I dunno first hand.
Native or ethnically Indian, if you don't mind me asking? Just wondering if the States are new to you or home? I know, I'm prying, and I'll clamp my jaw now. As you should be doing, rather than waggling that digital tongue at every passerby!

well,duh, there are Indians here. Being from the commonwealth of Virginia you should see a lot of them around.
We had rain last week but this week is hot. As always, the Raleigh area is under watering lawn restrictions cause people like to water their lawns even during the drought.
Born here and raised here, family is from India.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, that's unfortunate. It denies you the benefits of a great lawn sprinkler playtime! I'm working in Texas at the moment. Eastern Texas is flooded. When I return in August, hopefully the drought will be over. I wanna play in the water. ; ) Though Shenandoah National Park has some awesome waterfalls, if it's not.
I know there's many Indo-Asian people here, smartaleck. ; P One of my favorite people in the world is my Indian friend Michelle. But being born and raised here is a unique perspective to someone who emigrated.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah I know. and whiney yuppies start talking about how they can afford to pay the fines even though the water sources are drying up. Where in Virginia do you live (when you are not in Texas)?
Hehehehehe hey you set yourself up for that one, silly. So you know another Indian person named Michelle? I googled my name and found at least 8 people with the same first and last name as me and are from the same area that my family is from. They don't look like me, but I am sure someone would get all of us confused. I hope they don't ruin the name 
Yeah thats two different breeds of people. The some of the ones I met that are born here tend to be snobby and bratty and think that being Indian is embarassing, but then all there friends are from the same part of India that their parents are from. I have a friend from college that was an International student from the Philippines, I remember she said that she noticed that with them too. I'd rather hang out with the ones that emigrated.

Usually, I'm dwelling in Fairfax, right outside of DC. Way up in Federally Occupied Northern Virginia. ; p
I do, I'd apologize but she might beat me with her short and fiesty self or something. Deny me tea, I dunno. Is Fernandes the name you googled? To me, doesn't sound Indian, but I might just be ignorant. *shrug, laughs* I wasn't aware you're connected with Kit! God, everyone's known to everyone else! I'm surrounded!
Is your character shining and new?
The thing I usually hear from women about emmigrated Indian men is that they're really chauvinistic. is that true?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, I've been to fairfax.There's a really good Indian Buffet in Henderson called Minerva.
*rolls eyes* Do you remember in history class when Europe colonised parts of the world? Portugal had colony posts in India. My family is from Goa.
Yeah we were roommates at NC School of the Arts. I haven't talked to her in years til recently. I didn't know she went by Kit til I got back in touch with her. Kit's the only person on DA that I know in real life.
They aren't as chauvinistic as second generationers. I don't like either one and I have yet to meet one that isn't an asshole.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hrm. But Henderson is 5 hours or more away south from the DC area where Fairfax lies. I don't see myself driving 5 hours for dinner, but I'm usually too hungry by the time I need to eat to be making long winding trips unless it's to feast at God's table or somesuch.
If I'm ever through Henderson, I'll look it up, though Google Maps didn't know of the place... Do you mean Herndon, by chance?
I recall the fact, surely. No one I knew ever recalled where everyone's colonies where, though. I know that Spain had a lot of the Philippines, England has Hong Kong, lots of Africa, everyone was sharing the Caribbean and South America, but I didn't know much beyond England's annexing of the subcontinent as far as India was concerned. I'm just not that much of a details person, historywise. I go more for the good stories. Stories make the world go round. Dates and Names are just so much filler.
I know a couple folks on here, from school or otherwise, but very few to I hold conversations with whom I don't know offline... you must ave some special talent for that. So what do you do now, that you aren't at NC SA?
That's what I hear.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's it! Herndon! I lived in the other side of DC for 2 yrs so I was rarely in the west side of the area.
India had the British, the french in the west and the Portuguese in small areas. Africa was also colonised by the Germans, French and Spanish. Mostly the British, and French though.
That's me all right. I just like a good conversation, but that also means that the people I talk to have to be interesting enough to talk to and can enjoy my sense of humour.
I'm back home in NC right now. Working on my portfolio to apply to video game companies as a concept artist/storyboard artist.
What are you doing in Texas?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I see! What brought you over our way? You were in MD or Arlington County? I grew up west of Annapolis, MD, myself.
Did you major in history or something? You're a font of interesting tidbits. And rife with a particularly strange brand of humor. In the modern sense, and not the medieval melancholic sense which brings on plagues. ; p I'd like to know how the portfolio submission goes, whenever you're ready! I work for this weird company that makes real life treasure hunts, myself. We give away tons of gold and jewels and weird artifacts to the ones who solve the puzzles. Of course, as might be excpected, I'm their illustrator on staff. Since god forbid I do anything else for work. I'd die in an office job. I almost killed my whole department when I worked for the USPS for two weeks.... O.o And this also answers "Why Texas?", since my partner at ScrollQuest moved here last year. He has me down working intensive for two months. ; )

I went to school at Catholic University of America in the NE side of D.C. I graduated in 2004 with a BA in Studio Art.
Nah, I just like learning things. History is very important, there's a lot to learn about the world if people study history. It's opens your eyes to why things are the way they are.
A rife font of plague?
Ports are going sloooooooow. I applied for a bunch of stuff around this time last year. I either got no replies, thanks but no thanks, or we can't hire anyone at this time/your art skills are bad. So I'm beefing up the port the best I can. I'm beginning to think it's misogynistic cause I emailed some companies outside of the US just for info about them and they were happy that someone emailed them.
I can't stand office jobs. Granted they pay better than waiting tables and less angry customer interaction, but I was not made for a cubicle. Unfortunately, I need money while I am trying to get a dream art job (got the loans to pay off and art supplies to buy and sushi habit to slate).
I can't imagine working in a post office. They'd throw me out the first day cause they'd think I'm too smart, either that or make it a living hell for me to work there (had that happen before).

That is quite deliriously crazy ironic. With chips on top and everything. O.o I graduated from Corcoran College of Art in 05, and we were in the city at the same time for almost 3 years. This is highly amusing. Gradumacation is good, though! My degree says General Fine Arts as a major, I think. *ponders* I sort of focused on illustration and printmaking, though. ; )
People do tend to follow certain patterns, don't they? And it helps to understand the cause and effect and catalysts that bring them about, I agree. I like poking at the workings of the human animal, off and on. It's a fascinating topic. Though one is biased simply by nature, sadly. Why are YOU the way YOU are is even more interesting, though. Individual study, as opposed to group and societal intrigues. Or, if not moreso, at least as interesting. To me, anywho. And though it probably sounds like I'm full of it, when viewing a debate or discussion or argument from the outside or even when I'm one of the involvees, I can usually pull the intricacies of the discussion apart to see the thing from a few different views. It helps me understand people better, but people never think of this happening, so everyone assumes that an idea posited in argument is based simply on my best interests. Really, I try to look at every angle first... which doesn't always get realized... and I don't really like explaining the longwinded thoughts that brought me to an idea if I don't feel I have to. So, it makes debate interesting.
You're frightful? Nah. I like ya.
You can never tell with art directors (speaking as if I didn't hold the title...), though. Half the time, it's based on personal preference as opposed to talent. They also just might not need the kind of stuff you do for their projects, currently. Find your niche, and work at getting a job in that. Also, try single commissions- ie, magazine illustration and editorials for stuff. Newspapers, literary magazines, business magazines, et all. I dunno if you'd done so or not, so feel free to ignore my foolish advice. *shrug, smiles*
Me either. I am glad I don't work in a cubicle any more... O.o I'd snap. Falling Down style. Maybe. ; p But really, I didn't work in a post office. I worked FOR the post office at the HQ in DC, doing graphic design for the whole organization. Which, soulless as it was, would have paid well. Unfortunately... I couldn't swallow my personality enough to become a government zombie from 9 to 5. All that sushi I won't get to eat, to put it in your terms. *sorrow*

Wow I wonder if we ran into each other on the metro :-3
Well that would only be 2 yrs cause i transfered in 2002.
Hehehehe you haven't heard my viper tongue yet
Good advice, I've just been hitting brick walls. Mostly cause people want artist that do digital rather than traditional.
oh no! the Zed word! *gets the cricket bat out to battle gov't zombies.*
Damn now I want sushi.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That would have been superfluous, though strange and kind of a wonky little fateful intersection, since I never really talked to the other people on the metro whom I wasn't with. The metro is a boat full of strangers. Though, it's really a train. O.o So... it's not a boat at all.
Is it terrorizing to small children and old ladies? Or sailors and bikers, too?
Yeah, learning to paint digitally is sort of necessary now. I'd advise getting a tablet and doing so. *nod* Though not every project calls for it. Magazine illustration is often pastels or traditional art of another medium.
Gung ho there, aren't we, Miss Fernandes?
Mmm. I was craving that terribly last night.

True, then protesters mow you down with their peace symbol signs on their way to the National Mall. No joke. The only time people ever try to talk to me on the metro are sleazy guys trying to talk to me.
only to bratty children, cranky old scabs, and anyone that annoys me
What? You wanted to go zombie bashing with me
I get to go eat sushi tomorrow with my sister. We both have been craving it, but lack the money to go eat it.

I've been at the national mall during a protest, and it was certainly an amusing experience. A thousand clamoring voices, all saying different things... and they expect people to listen to their views when they can't even get a solid statement out about what they want. I got petitioned to sign things for 5 different causes all at one protest. So sad. What I found really obnoxious was the cops telling people they couldn't visit the Vietnam wall if they had a protest sign, though. That's irritating.
If they'd been trying to talk to you, does it make 'em sleazehounds, or are they sleazehounds prior and even if they keep silence around your subway-travelling self? I sometimes get intrigued at how we perceive people when they're removed from our personal experience.
I'll try not to become a bratty kid, or a cranky geriatric, then. ; P Tell me if I do.
Surely! Though with Dead Rising being played for hours here at work, I see a ton of CGI zombie death... Am I being desensitized... or trained subconsciously?
Lucky critter. How was it?

I just thought it was stupid that someone has a poster with hearts and rainbows and peace signs around the earth with words saying lets have peace in the world. then used it to push people out of their way on the metro.
Hey I was minding my own business and guys ask me about seeing me on here before or asking if I was new and that they wanted to show me around. or were they asking my chest? 
I'd be the first to tell you.
Why are you playing Dead Rising at work? I think trained. I watched Slither last night (can't help it, must watch Nathan Fillion make polyester cop uniform look sexy). I was thinking of tactics they should have used. Then I thought: "I play way to many survival horror games."
Nah we didn't get to go
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Certainly a quandry of intent, there. Did they apologize? Or do it... nicely at least? Hrm. People are silly creatures. Supposed religious individuals who don't act according to their tenets at all, Christian or otherwise; hippies who shove aside people on the metro, obnoxious police officers, lying politicians. People should often be neutered, in my opinion.
*laughs* You should probably carry a sign or something. If they do that, you can slowly bring the sign up from your belt and watch their eyes follow it up to proper height. Then hit them with it.
Thank you. ; ) I try not to be a pain too often. Except when I'm feeling Puckish.
Because it's a cool job, and we have a GIANT HD TV for it to be played on. There's a PS3 here, too, but I don't tend to play that. I like the Wii better, overall. I saw that a while back, too, and really only because Fillion was in it. *grin* Though probably for different reasons than you did. I'm secretly Firefly fan, though maybe not to secretly at that. ; ) And if you want a neat read, I recommend World War Z, by the fellow who wrote the Zombie Survival Guide. It's quite neat.
Suuuushiiiiiiii!

NO they didn't and no "excuse me's" either. Just the chip on the shoulder and acting like their opinions matter more than other peoples as the barged their way through the metro stations.

Hrm. Terrible! Sounds like most people on the metro, though. Unfotunately, you'd think they'd be kinder. But alas, people are mules. Obnoxious and fractious and prone to kicking.
