Villain Month: Draw a different villain each day for the whole month! (Simple enough, right? ^^)

Ok, honestly I don't really recall ever having heard of this before... Ok well maybe something years ago, the memory is very fain (more like minor deja vou really)... But anyway, I just found out that October is apparently Villain month. I have no idea by who's decree, and my minimal attempts to research the event have not been fruitful. The idea sounds very interesting to me however! I only found out on the second I think, so I've missed a couple, which i may try to make up. In fact, I couldn't help myself and I went ahead and did my villain for tomorrow tonight as well! XD I'm gonna scan and post them as soon as I get a good chance. I've got a whole pile of stuff to scan and clean actually, and my files are rapidly turning into an unnavigable mess the way I have them organized currently... Darn...

Now the Irony here is actually the fact that about three weeks ago my English teacher assigned us to do an expository essay on whatever we liked. I was going to do something which is something of a running joke with me and my close friends that involves me doing the same subject for projects every year, and having teachers be none the wiser. (The main problem with this of course is that once you know all the facts, you don't need to do any research, so you have no resources to sight, which makes your teachers very, very annoyed.) So anyway, I had this paper to do, and I wasn't going to have access to the internet over the weekend that I was supposed to dig into researching on, so I had to make a decision, and I literally came up with a new topic while riding my bike down the hill to the library. I began playing with the idea of doing a paper on the relationship of heroes and villains and their roles in today's society. I've been absolutely obsessed with Labyrinth, Jareth in particular, for some time now, so I've been thinking deeply about our perception of villains lately. The point of this story though is that I wrote the darn paper, (yeah it's an awesome paper too XD), and I'm turning it in tomorrow mourning, not realizing til yesterday how apt my timing and subject were.



Join in everybody, and have a great Villain Month! ^^
