Happy Fluttershy Friday! (#129, 130, 131, 132(?)!!!)

Hello my followers and HAPPY FLUTTERSHY FRIDAY! It has been a while, and I have been SUPER remiss about keeping up with this, especially with NYCC slowly creeping up like a bad cold. I hope that if you are at NYCC this year, you will take some time to come over to the education panels over at the Public Library. While I know not everyone who might read this is in education, some of the things we discuss are quite interesting.

Now, ONTO PONIES!!!


Oh my goodness, I broke 130!!! And I will be honest, I AM RUNNING OUT OF ROOM! For real, like I don't know what I am going to do! Right now, I still haven't fully integrated the ponies I got from BronyCon into the collection. I feel like I need another bookcase, it's that nuts! Maybe I should...

Anyway, let's check out the newcomers!!!


First up, while I am NOT taking this girl out of the collection, I did want to point out that at least one Fluttershy came as part of this new set. I may try and find her individually on eBay just so I can add her. This is a cool set that came out this year, which I believe was meant to celebrate the 35th anniversary of MLP. I like this idea of merging the current characters with the old school style. Very vintage and I like the homage it pays to us who remember the old ponies. 



Next up, this ADORABLE Flutterbat that I swear to God I want to cuddle ALL THE TIME! From Sew Adorkable, this little Flutterbat is done in her teddy bear style, where it's super cuddly and is begging for hugs. And come on, even with that mad face, who wouldn't want to SQUEEZE this little critter?

Next up, this Fluttershy seapony bath toy. I am glad I am finding SOME seapony stuff. I feel like there's not enough. Now, because of how she is, I may keep her in the packaging, because there's no way for her to stand up outside of it. Plus, I don't really take baths. But the cool thing is is that she lights up! And even in the packaging, I can still press the buttons to make her light up!


Lastly, the mystery box Fluttershy. I never got one of her, and honestly never really thought about it too much, but lately, I've been kinda digging this girl for the stand out of black and pink (two of my favorite colors, even if black technically isn't a color) and I saw someone selling her and decided to cave. At least I didn't have to spend hours trying to find her!

Movie Review Monday (GOOD BOYS!)

Happy Movie Review Monday! It's been a while since I've gotten to go to the movies, mostly because there aren't many movies out there that I am dying to see. However, while I am not huge on some of the humor that has come from Seth Rogan, the trailer for "Good Boys" did intrigue me. So I went and saw it this past weekend on a date. And oh my god! I was DYING! Let's take a look:

"Good Boys" (Director: Gene Stupnitsky)



"Good Boys" follows three boys who are just starting out in 6th grade (oh, the memories from middle school) and already they are starting on the wrong foot. The major issue is following little guy Max (played by Jacob Tremblay) as his issue sort of overtakes his friends Thor (by Brady Noon) and Lucas (by Keith L. Williams). There are a lot of vibes from different movies that seem to remind me of a combo of a bunch of movies, from "The Sandlot" to "Ferris Buller's Day Off." There even seems to be some "American Pie" thrown in as well. But not in a bad way! Honestly, the humor in this movie had me just about falling out of my chair with laughter. It's just so much awkwardness that makes you want to laugh because you can remember similar things happening to you (or maybe not quite so similar, but still awkward). 


The topics are relatable, and the laughs just kept coming. The movie was short, sweet, and to the point, just like this review! Honestly, I would go see this movie again, and probably will!

Happy Self-Promotion Sunday!

Hey all! It's me! I know it's been a bit since I have posted--between work starting back up (remember y'all, I'm a teacher) and moving on with my love life, I have been quite the busy bee! So I am finally getting a chance to put up some stuff for Self-Promotion Sunday. But I also have some news to share!

First up, my news! I mentioned this is one of my last posts, but just in case for anyone who missed it, I will be presenting at New York Comic Con this October!! I am SUPER pumped about this, but it does mean that a lot of stuff on the side is going to be cut in half until after the presentation. I want to make sure this presentation is well received. But for anyone who might want to come check it out, here's the info:
Title: Fan Art: Teaching It Is OK!
Date: October 3rd
Time: 1:30pm to 2:15pm
Location: Room 67A at the New York Public Library!

I hope if you happen to be at NYCC, you will come check it out!


Now, my newest designs. These are up on my Redbubble, but remember, a lot of my stuff has also been moved over to my TeePublic due to sweeps, so just make sure you take a look over on my TeePublic as well as Redbubble

My latest designs are based off of paintings I did recently, and they were quite popular. Because of that, I have turned them into digital pieces so that others could get them. They are my Nintendo Princess Stained Glass Series. I got Peach, Daisy, Rosalina and even Bowsette! Check them out below, and then check them out on my Redbubble! There are two variants of each, but below I am showing off the variants that include frames. I also do know that the Rosalina background is finer than the rest in terms of looks. When I was doing the filter on the background to make it look like stained glass, it didn't look right when I had it bigger like the rest, so I went smaller with the fractals on her design and I think it works. I DO still have two of the paintings, those are up on my Etsy site.











I am hoping to have some figurines done within the next week or so, including some projects that have been SUPER long in the making. So keep an eye on my Etsy site and make sure you check out all my digital pieces! Cause remember, we got Halloween coming up! I've got Jack Skellington designs, and a few cute Care Bear designs as well!
