Hola. Im new here in this scary world of vurtual pictures and ... doodles... But, I've enjoyed my first few days already and hope to submit a few things and make a few friends.
Me myself am a kind of a mix as a stereo type as I enjoy classical music, reading anything, dont hate the peace pipe and enjoy a concert or two in a far off field. To my drinking friends Im known as the 'Cultured' member as Im the only one who can pronounce a 3 sylabel word. I enjoy all form of art types, depicting from Russian Surealism to the Greek mythology archived scriptures.
My reading preffereance is very wide as I enjoy anything from Alan Poe's Hellen to Terry Pratchet's Discworld.
My personal art tends to be more chaotic and even putrid as my idol as an artist is Francis Bacon, and yet I try to cram as much anime and manga in me each night. My name Myddraal was chosen because Regal was already gone and because its from the masterpiece series by Robert Jordan's 'Wheel of ime' series of books. The Myddraal are race of wraith like creatures, draped in Black clokes with snake like features with a silver knife designed to infect any being its blade scathes. Thats what a critic in my small home island once said about me to an art piece I did, that my art 'can infect any viewer it reaches'. I always took it as a compliemt.
In my life I have just finished my A levels getting full A's through all my art courses giving me the choice of what art college I want, however im taking a gap year to travel. Japan or Canada seems like the most viable.
The only other art that I think I dont do distatefully is my desriptive writting. If im not drawing, reading Manga or not praticing between
Tai-Chi Crane movewents I tend to be typing something on my computer until the early morning. They tend to be rather cryptic, but an elder reader may enjoy a piece or two.
If your ever interested in reaching me, Im allways welcome to more friends. A few selections of names I've received over the years are Ref, Regal, Bear and Man in Russian Boots.

A journal is a form of 'peace of mind'. To write in this argutitous tabed out white block, I recight my own 'peace of mind' so that I know my words fluttering around a dormant frontal lobe wont be forgotten. Tis' true what De'Kvatch said as he painted Red Peter's archive of Bolshevik firearms,
'To be Slavic in a Soociety of dictatous empathy can only ring true through the Bells of Heaven as it ROAMS.'
I dont pretend I dont need this inclosure. Who doesnt!? Im typing here at a saturn black keyboard, tip and tapping vibrating through the cold night air as the mere mention of a whisper dies into the Alopiathe walls of my desolate house. I wish chaotic pianos would play with every not to every key that I press. I wish the spawn of the Abys like sky would dance to the chorus of my humming. My reasurance for a 'peace of mind' will not come as it did not come for that faithful Russain. In Apathy I type, and I type, knowing far too well that this would scathe the touches of Heaven!... before it would graze the eyes of an unknown monitour and an eager eye... At least an eye with a mind behind the Retina to know what hollow words my typing Fortute to.
If a reader does take.... a mere double digit of seconds to read this entry, dont be dissmayed by a bored and confused idolesant as he sits at his computer... night, after night... after night.
P.S. Im sure I will have something much cheerful out there next time. perhaps even a little... happy Elf, or two.
... It may have been the career my parents chose for me at a young age, Lawyer or a Q.C. Barister. -sigh- I spent alot of my early years in Royal Clubs where the chips are called 'Obland Potato, flambe et Tissie' and usally cost £10 for a hand full, surrounded by elder gentlemen in a mist of stale Cigar smoke. Or, it may have been watching the Series Frasier from an early age... Or it may even be the fact that I started reading Edger Alan Poe when 6 and cant help but write descriptive writting when possible (see how much space I've allready taken on a simple reply?). Even more reasons as I was sent to 9 years worth of private Prose and Theatre training when 7 and yearly stood reapeating dead poets work. -ponders- The amusing thing is my spelling and grammer is usually quite appauling. Now, as I drag this onto way beyond too far a word count, thank you for knowticing and questioning it instead of referring it to merely be a side affect of being 'Posh' which I am far from
heh woah. I guess it's probably a combination of all the above. That's really interesting. Most people have different styles of writing, different sets of words that they use more often than others, but usually they're all relatively similar and you can't usually tell much from it (for insance, you probably can't tell from reading this that I speak with a slight german accent). So because your style differs from what I usually see online, I just had to ask :)
