I'm far form being your typical girl. I have many traits that defines me as unique.
Some people will see that as boring and just plain odd. What I find logical, others see it as abnormal.
I always try to see things with an open mind. People would find me naive and too passive.
But really, maybe I just don't bother. Haha, I'm also lazy!
Now that I think about it, it's quite hard to really define myself. I have many facets
(though, I lack the mysterious aura factor. I'm not cool.) Usually, you'll find me in a good mood. Friends say that smiling come natural for me.
To a certain extent, I can be a pretty simple person. I smile and laugh when I'm happy, and cry when I'm sad.
I cry really easily. Though, it doesn't mean my tears lack sincerity.
I sob in horror movies too (I feel sorry for the people who gets their head chopped off for no reason).
I always complain about the fact that I have no time to do anything.
Yet, If I did have this so called free time,
I would probably spend it doing nothing but lying around while daydreaming about Gackt.
I love art. I'm not sure about what really defines an artist. I just do what I like to do.
And if people can feel something or relate to my work, then that is just the bonus.
I can take criticism. But if it's just empty words, hahaha I won't even bother. I like to do things on my own terms.
Maybe that's why I dislike school so much. Most of the time, I feel like I'm limited in my creativity. But, I know deep down,
I'm just being lazy and difficult. I need to overcome this.
I have studied Graphis Design for about 2 years (though, haven't graduated yet). I've decided to change my study field to Visual Arts.
Guess for now, I'm just not mature enough to accept to be limited in my work by teachers and clients. It's just not expressive enough.
Maybe after I graduate in Arts, I'll might go back and finish my Graphic Design studies (or I'll go and study Animation).
I care little for academic performance, I just try to get good grades for my parents sake. I think that's a pretty valid reason.
For now, I just want to enjoy life and be the best I can be. Thank you for reading.

Name : Martou (or Mart)
DoB : November 25 1988
Graphic design experince : 2 years so far of making little icons and some wallpapers…
thinking about trying out some layouts too ~nya ^^
Loves : Some things… but mostly the j-pop band UVERworld ~nya ^^
Dislikes : A LOT of things but right now… SNOW!!! I just can’t stand it anymore…
too much snow here in Quebec … o.O’
Network : blog
So then Keki (the master mind behing this lovely little site lol) [Ahem, EVIL master mind, is I may V.V - Keki] has asked me to write some things about myself too.
Humm... not very good at this kinda stuff. So first off, I’m a 19 years old college student,
trying to become a math teacher ~nya (didn’t see that one comming, ne?) But yeah, that’s like my big goal right now in life,
so icon making is really just somethin’ I do in my free time ~nya. I’m really the quiet type of girl I think…
I can easily get along with mostly anyone, but I‘m not the one who's gonna be all friendly dovey with people I barely know lol.
People say I should smile more often nya… lol, I DO!!! It just doens't look like it… lol :p So anyway, there you have it.
Oh yeah, and the punk’ed thingy… It goes way back to high school lol, used to like talk my mind out more often about everyone and everything.
Plus, I was more tomboyish if you know what I mean lol :p I changed a litlle over the years, but not much… the word DRESS still doesn’t exist in my vocab ~nya
(A jar full of cookies for the ones who get me to wear one to lol)
Well, with my new job I still need to look a lil’ more girly so to speak… Keki says I should be like that more often… yeah right! AS IF!!! Nya lol :p
Art is a very vague thing, really… For me, art is something anyone can do,
it can be the most beautiful thing for some, just like it can be something entirely different for others ~nya lol :p
So even though I really love drawing, I really don’t plan on continuing my career in that branch.
Mostly because it’s quite hard to find something that really pays off the bills each month loool,
and because i've never really like to be forced to do something... That's one thing I didn't really like about art in hight school.
If your work wasn't really what the teacher had in mind, then it's no good. Even if it's like your best piece ever!
Maybe if there were more possibilities here, I would have tried it. But math is really something I love ^^
(don’t try to understand.. Keki tried and it gave her a headache lol)
So, of course i’ll continue drawing and making icons in my spare time. After all, pratice makes perfect, don’t ya think so too?
P.S Sorry for the lack of fancy word in there, let’s say english is not really my first language lol
Thx for reading ‘till the end ~nya.
