Total Just for Laughs rip off....

There are five stages of dolling, six if you're a university student. But we're just gonna deal with the first five her tonight folks.

Stage 1: 9 pm. You open Paint and grab a base to work on. Some of your friends are talking to you on MSN. You have class first thing the next morning, but you figure, 'hey, as long as I get 8 hours sleep, I'm cool'.

Stage 2: 11 pm. You've gotten part of the dress done, but spent most of the night so far chatting with your friends. You want to get the doll done tonight, so you ask them to stop bothering you. Also, a little devil has appeared on your shoulder, and he keeps giving you suggestions on things to change, and pointing out andy problem areas. Yeah, you may be up a little late, but you figure, 'hey, as long as I get at least 6 hours sleep, I'm cool'.

Stage 3: 1 am. The devil has gotten a little bigger, and he found his reference pictures. You just can't decide if she should have a gold bracelet or a silver necklace, or maybe both. And you've always wanted to try doing a glowing effect. It's gonna be a long night, but you figure, 'hey, as long as I get at least 3 hours sleep, I'm cool.'

Stage 4: 3 am. The devil has gotten even bigger, and he's brewing you coffee. The shading on the hair doesn't seem to want to come out right, and the glowing effect is impossible to do (mental note to invest in PhotoShop). You REALLY want to get this doll done tonight, as it's for a contest, but you'll never be able to to that AND get enough sleep without missing class, so you figure you'll stay up all night! Besides, as long as you get 36 hours sleep tomorrow-and a pair of transplanted eyes-you're cool.

Stage 5: 6 am. At this point even the devil is packing it in (Hey, I have an appointment with some new arrivals at 8 ). You stagger outside. The sun is like God's flashlight. You see your friends, on their way to class, rested and refreshed. You look up at the sky, and say-say it with me-'I swear, I will never pixel-shade again'. And some of us have that little addition, 'and this time, I mean it'.
