BlackTezcas' 19th Trail: An Artsy Geeky Amazon will Keep Her Sanity with Help from Her Robot Friends!

[BlackTezca]

 

Woo!  Time for another challenge!  This already come up so soon and technically my challenge started...today!  So here we go and let's get this all set up right away!  No more being lazy and no more breaks!  Just pure awesome to celebrate the greatness that is the revival of MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000!!!

 

 Hi, I'm BlackTezca and I'm just another Artsy Geeky Amazon in glasses!   I have had mistfortune in taking place in such horrible films as my debut in  From Lurker to (Newb) Rebel! before continuing to take roles from Roger Corman in various C-movie SciFi plots listed in  BlackTezca's Daily Battle Towards A Much Better Year before completely bombing in my latest flick, a supposedly legendary action epic of raspberry proportions BlackTezca's 18th Trail: An Artsy Geeky Amazon will fight! Will sacrifice! And will find a way! That's what humans do! Ooof that deserves some majot riffs from a crew that has experience and talent in tormenting themselves!!

 

Oh last challenge was not that bad,,,

 

Now though I have had my difficulties and challenges, I can still move forward.  This week an an awesome movie (or what I hope to be awesome) comes out!  Which not only goes well with this challenge, but also with my epic quest.  I shall take on sleep, build up my eating and workout habits, power up my immune system, continue to make beautigul artwork, all of these things to march forward to become like my QUEEN!  My inspiration!  A showing beam of optimism in the pool of cynical, cliche, cookie cutter genre films!  MY ULTIMATE QUEST!! MY QUEST WHICH IS...!!!

My Main Quest is to be as POWERFUL and BATTLE READY as Wonder Woman

 

Now for all that primer out of the way, let's get going into my awesome quest!  A whole lot of crappy movies to watch and make fun of, so let's get the crew together for our united survival against the horrors of terrible films!

YOU NEED TO SEE IT IT'S THE OPENING FROM NEW MST3K GO TO YOUTUBE FIND FIND FIND FIND IT!!!!!

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

Uhh, I haven't watched that show yet. My bf recently introduced me to Monk, so it'll take us some time to get start another series. But that is definitely something I'm curious about.

Oh and I'll come back for awsomeness and advice on anime. We finished some series and we're still try to figure out, what we could pick up for our weekly Anime evening. I'll write more about that at the end of Zero week.

[starpuck]

Wouldn't miss a BT challenge for the world!

(Is that the way the saying goes?  I always mess sayings up.)

 

[Teirin]

MST3k!!

Day 01 & 02

 

First off I need some mug in a yellow jumpsuit...like Jonah-...uh oh.

Day 01 & 02 Details: 02/05 vitamins! Ahhh vitamin C!  Need to keep my immune system up!  So this is starting off well!

 

Cambot is ready to start rolling!  Needs to have enough charge to power on though...
Day 01 & 02 Details: 02/17 good sleep days! So I am gonna give myself a point here cause I did go to bed at a good time and set my alarm accordingly.  The issue was that I had to wake up to a dog making a mess and had to clean it.  Ugh...so I tried to sleep in which didn't work.  Oh well, still counting this as I struggle to be awake.

 

Gypsy is a large sassy robot, perfect for solidifying my meals!

Day 01 & 02 Details: 01/05 good eats days! Monday was a holiday so I wasn't too careful with food.  Ooops.

 

Tom Servo is a smart and smooth robot!  If he was a human he would lift!

Day 01 & 02 Details: 01/05 working out days! Yes!  Got a short pilates workout in last night so I don't try to shove everything into rest of the week.  However I'd like to do more than this so I need to push!

 

Crow is different!  Creative, snarky, dramatic, and different!

Day 01 & 02 Details: 02/04 arting days! So it's been a while since I did an art spam!  I think I have only two images to spam!  Here is one I did last week:

 

And another I finished yesterday!!  

 More fun limited palettes!  I like doing this though I should probably work on full color images sometime *sigh*

 

Todays' Plan: I am still struggling to wake up.  Ugh such bad sleep.  For today I have a workout planned if I don't go to kickboxing, so I shall be working out one way or another!  I also have an art trade I need to finish by 06/04 so I'll be working on that today and maybe starting another piece!  Hoping to get better sleep tonight and also to wake up earlier tomorrow so need to get some sleep in and not...sleep in like I did today.  Ooof.

 

Hoping to get this train rolling with a little more steam! Wish me luck!

Day 03

 

First off I need some mug in a yellow jumpsuit...like Jonah-...uh oh.

Day 03 Details: 03/05 vitamins! Still keeping up this habit at least every weekday.

 

Cambot is ready to start rolling!  Needs to have enough charge to power on though...
Day 03 Details: 03/17 good sleep days! Much better sleep last night.  And got to bed exactly when planned to get that sleep.

 

Gypsy is a large sassy robot, perfect for solidifying my meals!

Day 013 Details: 02/05 good eats days! Awesome fooding yesterday!  Woo!

 

Tom Servo is a smart and smooth robot!  If he was a human he would lift!

Day 03 Details: 02/05 working out days! A combined Kickboxing and Upperbody workout!  A little bit rough but managed to get through it with success!

 

Crow is different!  Creative, snarky, dramatic, and different!

Day 03 Details: 03/04 arting days! Man an art trade taking a while!  Hoping to finish it tonight so I can work on something else!

 

Todays' Plan: Intro to Muay Thai maybe in the cards so hoping to do that before getting home.  If not then I shall find another workout to do instead!  Once I am home it's off to be some art and pretty much eat a good dinner before getting to bed at a decent hour!  Wish me luck

Week 1 Summary!!!

 

First off I need some mug in a yellow jumpsuit...like Jonah-...uh oh.

Results: 05/05 vitamins! I have been pumping myself full of vitamins!  Really hoping to not get sick now!  I better not!  

Week 1 Grade: A

 

Cambot is ready to start rolling!  Needs to have enough charge to power on though...
Results: 05/17 good sleep days! Sleeping and alarm setting going very well here!

Week 1 Grade: A

 

Gypsy is a large sassy robot, perfect for solidifying my meals!

Results: 05/05 good eats days! Barely made it!  Overall made very good food choices!

Week 1 Grade: A

 

Tom Servo is a smart and smooth robot!  If he was a human he would lift!

Results: 03/05 working out days! Sadly this one is a miss yet again!  Got too got up with a lot of things to work out.  Which is just an excuse.  Will do better this week!

Week 1 Grade: B

 

Crow is different!  Creative, snarky, dramatic, and different!

Results: 06/04 arting days!  I have art to spam!  WOO PREPARE THINE EYES!!!

 

Week 1 Grade: A

 

Not too bad for Week 1 but I still have the same challenge as I had before!  I am too lazy!  I need to get off my butt and work!  However, at least I can safely say that I earned myself a grade of...!!!

 

Week 1 Final Grade: A

I need to work out more.  I have been doing the bare minimum and while that's been all right as I have shifted my eating to be intermittent fasting and I am feeling more trim, but I also want to strengthen up and help my metabolism up!  This needs to be a focus and I should just do what I can to make this a habit again.  I'm not sure why I have been slacking other than plain ole laziness and that is more unfortunate!  Need to get into gear, especially since everything else is going strong.  

 

I have been starting to wake up earlier which is gonna be a help to get me feeling like I have more time to myself.  I do have a leg routine planned out today and I did do Muay Thai yesterday so that is a good start.  Time to keep pushing this on!

 

Let's go Week 2!  This one is starting off a lot better but there is still work to do!  Let's do this!!

 

[Kishi]

I'm feeling you on the magic of getting up earlier and feeling like having more time. There's just something about waking up in the semi-dark that makes the day feel full. There's no need to be up so late, except that sleep is boring.

 

Good job on Week 1!

[Treva]

Thank you for sharing your art with us!!  I really like seeing the cool creative things you've drawn!  I especially like the limited palette one you posted.  I don't know anything about art but I think sticking within the one color scheme is really cool and makes the shadows extra interesting.

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

Nice art again. Like it

[Luciana Valerosa Culming]

You alright?

 

[Teirin]

*poking again*  You ok?  Hope you're just busy.
