Today's post is brought to you by my first-ever guest blogger, Siarah O'Brien. Those of you who actually follow my blog, or who know all of us in real life, know that Siarah is the brilliant daughter of two of my very best friends, Shawn and Kristin O'Brien. She's 14 years old, a freshman in high school, insanely talented and she said yes when I asked if she would guest blog for me. Pretty much all the qualifications of an A+ guest blogger, especially the saying yes part. I have a feeling she will be the Melissa Harris-Perry to my Rachel Maddow, at least until she gets sick of me asking her to fill in when I'm gonna be out of town. At any rate, please enjoy the following post and thank you, Siarah, for providing excellent content! I now yield the floor to Miss O'Brien...
First off, let me just say it feels pretty awesome to be the Dave Factor’s first ever guest blogger. Yep, that’s right, FIRST EVER. Super awesome and something I didn’t even expect to be asked to do. Plus it gives me a chance to test out my new typing skills because I just finished learning typing in school. Yay! I spent a few days trying to figure out what I should blog about for this special occasion. Blogging for someone else isn’t as easy as blogging for yourself. So it took a few days of intense thinking. My parents suggested a few things, which helped me out. It’s really a rather random post but then again, I’m a really random girl. :D
So,
I’m Siarah, a 14-year-old girl who loves kitttehs, tacos and being awesome
and random. I actually have been mentioned in this blog before as the
creator of Death Cat the Series. Dave wrote a whole post about DC which
to me, was a really big deal. I remember Dave and Shannon from when I
was little so we’ve all known each other for a long time. I really like
drawing and animating (even though I take along time to animate) because
it’s fun! I’m a ‘profeshunal’ kitteh drawer because I’ve just always
drawn them for some reason. I’m no good at drawing people though but I can
probably draw any animal decently. I go to Hanford High and woah, it is
nothing like Jr. high. I keep seeing kids making out in the hall and
that isn’t something you want to see everyday. Plus several guys have,
like, actual beards and I don’t think you’re supposed to have a beard at
this age. So I think I’m the normal one in that school which is
different because I’m not used to being the normal one.
Now,
let’s go back in time and visit a young girl with a dream. A dream were
good and evil clash in an epic battle of epicness, a dream were said
good and evil take the form of two kittehs. Yes, Death Cat. Possibly my
greatest creation. When I first started DC, I didn’t plan on doing
anything with it. I just wanted to draw cats on live action backgrounds
that I ‘borrowed’ from Google images. But then I found myself drawing
the same cat, an evil cat with sharp POINTEH TEETH. So after he was done
terrorizing helpless bystanders at the lake and swatting helicopters
out of the sky from the Empire State Building, I created our heroine and
both Death Cat and Hero Cat (who, Fun Fact: is actually a girl) fought
their first battle. Which ended with Hero Cat beating Death Cat with a
small, but powerful, stick. I posted it on Youtube and my parents shared
it on their Facebook page and for some reason, my poorly drawn, barely
animated, video received several positive comments. Dave suggested I
make another featuring a giant squid and Death Cat: The Series was BORN!
Well
now that I look at it, I wrote a lot. And my hand hurts so I’m cheating
and not using the home-row keyboarding method I learned in Business 1. I
was gonna use the last paragraph to talk about tacos but you're probably
tired of my random babbling. Hopefully my art will make up for what
little interesting-ness this particular post has. So yeah, all this art
was by meee and made just for this occasion. :3 Hope you likeeee. -Siarah
