fresh fresh!

Ekk. It has been a really long time since I posted something here. Last week I have decided to start fresh! So I have reincarnated Taco the Blog into another blog form found HERE! I thought it would be better for me to create one cohesive name since I already have a website and etsy site under the name Killa Yogurt. I hope you can all follow me on to Taco's new blog form! Thank you and have a wonderful day! :D

cool cool cool

sticker labels! :)

color paper fun!

Dear Taco the Blog,

Here are some of my student's requests! I'll give you more of their stories a bit later!

edit.

Here's a close up of some of my student's special request!

1. Alice in Wonderland

2. A birthday strawberry flavored pop tart for my coworker

3. a rainbow sprinkled donut

4. pikachu

5. angry french fries

6. skull with a mustache

7. cat with a mustache

 One of my students wanted me to make her a little jade to keep. I thought that was the sweetest thing a kid has ever said to me! Then a boy overheard and asked me to make him a little jade too, but with a mustache. -______-

happy valentine's day!

Here are some valentine's grams I made for my students at work!

 

 

 

 

hI CHEWS YOU!

Hello all! Bonjour! Hola! Hoy hoy! What up? Hm. Not much. So I really like making things out of colored paper and I really like candy. Smooosh those things together with Pokemon and Valentine's Day, and you get a super cool homemade Pokemon Valentine's Day gram! I'm not quite done yet, but here is a preview of what I have so far done!

You could actually open up the pokeballs and inside it's going to say: "hI CHEWS YOU! Happy Valentine's day!" And of course, right in the middle will have a Hi Chew candy! I'll show more pictures when I'm done! (Boy, I really hope kids still like pokemon! haha.) Toodles yo! :)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!



*BOOM BOOM BOOM* (Imagine the sound of a dozen fireworks and banging trash cans!)


Yes yes! I know I am about 30 days late, but we should all use our imagination and pretend it was 30 days ago! Better yet, I think we should just pretend to ask  ourselves a very important question: How exactly do I get rid of jet lag? It is definitely NOT by going to bed everyday at 8 in the morning!


Anywhoo, I got back from my wonderful trip from the Philippines about a week and a half ago and I had an awesome time. We had lots of family outings, eating, shopping, and site seeing!

My brother, cousins and I at a farm. I ate so many quail eggs that day.

 

This is the first time ever we had all of the cousins together!



 

 

Apparently you can also get this great deal where you can buy two shampoos and get a free jar of peanut butter.

The end. Toodles :)

Happy Halloween!

Dear Taco the Blog,


I gathered up some of my leftover construction paper, glitter, and sharpie and made some halloween grams for the kids at my work. I taped a candy bar behind to make it look like it was crammed into the skull. Overall, I would like to give myself a pat on the back! I'm pretty happy how they turned out.

Anywhooo... I would like to end my blog post with one of my favorite songs on the Braid soundtrack Enjoy! :)

Cool story bro!

Once upon a time, Micky hanged out with his friends, George and Bill.




Micky got hungry, so he bit Bill's head.




Bill was not too fond Micky's actions.



The End.

On a sidenote:

One of my students at work wanted me to draw him Micky Mouse and two gummy bear friends. I just added a bit(e) more to it. You see what I did there? Hardy har har....


Toodles yo! :D

somethings I wanted to share! :)

One of my favorite cartoon shows would have to include My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. They just have wonderful characters, graphics, and stories, and I love how they just bust out into song! So one day I decided to draw my own version of each pony.

Here are my sketches!

From top to bottom, right to left...

 1. Pinkie Pie 2. Apple Jack 3. Flutter Shy 4. Rarity 5. Twilight Sparkle 6. Rainbow Dash

I played around with Illustrator and Photoshop and came up with this :)

Note to self:

Color in the rest of the ponies!


Toodles homies!

coming SOON!!!

Hello fellow surfers!

A couple days ago, I had a photoshoot with the cool John Paul for my handmade eyeball plushies. We adventured through The Great La Mirada Regional Park on a mission to explore it's most secretive monsters.


Here is a preview of what we found.

EeeK! I'm excited! I am very close to opening my etsy shop and website! Stay tuned for more! :)

go daddy go!

Dear Taco,


Today I am the proud owner of killayogurt.com! (My very own first website!) With the help of my little brother, I bought the domain name for a good deal, but I am still in need to get hosting. (Preferable free, considering my sad and empty pockets) Meanwhile, I have come up with a banner for my site!

BEHOLD....









Meet Parker, the angry cotton candy who roams the tiny streets of the Philippines. (I think that is a jeepney in the background)




Things to do this week:
1) finish up the website
2) finish prototypes
3) finish mass effect 3







Well, I guess that's it!...See ya! *POOF*

robots in disguise

Dear Blog,




I think a Transformer is living in my neighbors backyard.










Sincerely,
Jem

Hello Internet World!



Today I finished up my valentine's day grams to give to the kids at work this Tueday. They are colorful-heart-shaped-glitterly eyeballed-monsters with a yummy hersheys bar in their mouths! I hope the kids like them!



Who doesn't love a cookies and creme chocolate bar? I know I do! And that is why I made only 19 hearts.



Toodles!


:D

Magical Eyeball Plushy

I made some eyeball plushys the other day




...and watched my sister's car come to life! :)

Here comes Hercules

Dear Internet Surfers,


Today is my Mommy's birthday and so we took the family out to lunch. While roaming around the buffet aisles, I got into thinking. Ice cream. Plain brown Sprinkles. Spicy tuna sushi. Boy, those dumplings over there are looking mighty tasty. Did that guy over there really filled up his entire plate with fried bananas. Holy crap! Her Christmas themed earrings lights up every other second ... I HAVE NO MUSICAL TALENT!!!!

Was I one of those kids whose asian parents forced into learning the piano, saxophone, flute, or those other shiny objects that I have no idea what their names are? NOPE. I kinda wish they did, but all this is going to change.


Zordon: How so?
Me: EXACTLY!
Zordon: Huh?
Me: A harmonica of course!


Look at this beauty that I just ordered!


(It's actually a Key C I got.)


Now it's going to be great. The internet is filled with magical information with lots of how to instructions. I just have to keep on practicing!



Can't wait till Hercules comes in the mail! Peace out homies!

PS. Life List #28 Past the CBEST and CSET: CHECK! :D

hoy hoy!

HELLO INTERNET...HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! :D






Boy, I'm stuffed! I ate and ate with my fam bam, watched some Ghostbusters, and was bitten a couple of times by a parrot. Haha... I never learn. But I hope you all had a great day!






So a couple days ago, I decided that these big heads needs some bodies to go with.












Toddles yo!

WalaaaaaAAA!

My blog needed a make- over...


...so I recycled some old work, made some space ships, mixed in my love for clam chowder, and added a lovely picture of myself.

Magical Source, Mystic Force!

Bendis: We're gonna die.
Mal: We are not gonna die. You know why? Because we are so... very... pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die. Huh? Look at that chiseled jaw!

Mostly every morning I eat my breakfast while watching Power Ranger's Mystic Force. It's actually very much watchable, fun to watch, and a good way to start off your morning! If you count 11:30am still morning.




Here are some graphics I've been working on this pass week! :)


I chose you! Pikachu!






K to the i to the R-B-Y!!!





LINK!





and last but not least....

Meta Knight!







These are actually gonna be put onto banners for the new CKI website (Supersmash theme!). Six more to go and almost halfway done!

So far I love Pikachu the best! He looks really high! :D





Toodles!

Life List #19

19. Build my own treehouse.







Just like this one. :)

Life List #27

27. Better my Adobes Illustrator skills.


What better way to practice adobe illustrator than to draw the original cast of Stargate SG-1?





This took me awhile but I'm happy with the results! I love playing around with Illustrator and I want to get better at this! So I'll try to make something every week (hopefully!) :D



THE DOODLE:




For some reason, I started to watch Stargate....and it is AWESOME! I'm just on season 2 and the story lines are wonderful! I love how they tie in the mysteries of our own world to their show! Worm Holes, alternate universe, Thor and Ra were actually aliens from another world?, say what!?!?! Yup! It's all there!


Toodles and go watch it for yourselves! :D
