Quote of the 'Week'

"Men will always be mad, and those who think they can cure them are the maddest of all."

Discovering that someone has commented on one of my blogs is such a joyous feeling. Hint, bloody hint!

Halloo again citizens of t'internet

Hello.
I'm back, after around two weeks of forgetting to post anything on this blog.
Here is a picture I am currently working on when I can be bothered:

It's based on that steampunk style that I discovered not too long ago and love deeply, where modern-day objects, or futuristic gadgets, are given the aesthetics (and sometimes the actual technology) to make it look as if it was created during the Victorian era, when technology was limited to gears and sprockets and pistons and steam power. The result is a delightfully retro-futuristic style that appeals to me greatly.
However, that apparently does not mean that I devote every second of my time to working on this picture. Quite the opposite, as a matter of fact. It has been days since I last worked on it, and I can't find the motivation to continue.
Don't ask. My mind is a wierd place that even I don't understand.
Or is that what my mind wants me to think? Aha! 'Tis all a conspiracy. After all, my mind literally makes me think. What's to stop it from making me think what it wants? Maybe my mind has all sorts of hidden agendas and plots for the future, but I can't figure it out because I need my mind to figure it out and my mind will want to cover it up, whatever 'it' is...

In hindsight, that is a rather silly notion.
Fun, though. And it really pads out my entry.
Wait, that sounded really wrong, and I thusly apologise. But what a fantastic euphemism!

And on that bombshell, it's time to say goodbye.
But I won't.

Hang on, I've got something...

I have just remembered that I have found out how to put my Flash animations on YouTube. Look for an animation called 'Elderberries'. It's just a lip sync experiment, but it's rather fun. It might be on the video bar to the left.

View it!

Over and out.

Just padding out the blog a bit.

I'll level with you.

I am just posting this to make the page seem a bit more filled out. I have not prepared anything interesting to say.

Then again, the very first post was rather long, yet very good (if I do say so myself), and that was one hundred percent improvised. Perhaps if I keep bashing out whatever keyboard letters my fingers land on, guided by my mind, my stream of consciousness will provide you with an entertaining post.
Hmmm... let's see...


Nope, I've got nothing. Writer's block, I suppose.
Ah, well. Sorry about that. I may as well end this post then.

Until next time...

Welcome to the mind of William Wivell. Please drive carefully.

Good day blog-gogglers.
Today is a momentous day indeed. For today is the launch of my latest blog.
Now, the less enlightened of you may be scratching your skulls, mumbling: 'what do you mean by latest?'.
Well, I am also doing a blog about a bit of schoolwork I am doing. Like a project diary. I customised it, and it entertains people weekly with a fine blend of funny images, subtle criticisms indirectly aimed at the school and wacky videos.
This blog will be exactly the same.
Well, not really. I wanted to do a blog where I didn't need to do an hour of classwork in order to have an excuse to create a post. A blog where my imagination could really be let loose. If you look at my attempts to restrain it in my previous blog, think about how what damage that imagination could do if released.
Millions could die!
By die, of course, I mean laugh.

So set your funny-bones to side-split, your watch to Greenwich Mean Time, and your face in plaster as we travel further than anyone has ever travelled before... into my brain!

Oh, wait. That's not that far, really. Probably a few centimetres, if you're standing next to me. Ah, and you will have to be shrunk down to smaller than a pea, won't you? So it will seem like miles! It's all relative, you see.

Some of the more astute of you may have noticed that I have a tendency to ramble. Fear not; just let the blog entries engulf you like a tidal wave of molasses, covering you in sticky goodness until you are as one with the molasses (there was actually a tidal wave of molasses in Boston, America many years ago. A factory burst, or something).

As you were.
