So it has been a bit since I've been on. I've been home for about 2 weeks and I've been keeping busy with stuff around here.

My cousin has graduated, I've seen a couple movies, I've done some photography, and pretty much haven't a decent time. I needed this break from my classes and am glad for this.

We have 4 new kittens, they are about a month or so old and are completely adorable. I have a new cousin who was born April 13 and who I saw for the first time last week.

Though some days I've been keeping busy, there are still times I'm completely bored and so I was loned Lost Session 1. Already in the last 3 hours I've watched the first four episodes and I'm completely into it. I figured I needed to update at least one of my online things with what I was up to so you all would know I was doing alright. Hopefully I'll update my site and other forums and stuff soon. Just this slow internet makes it a pain.

I hope you all are well!

Miss you!

Practically non-existant aye..

My work keeps piling up on me so I hardly have time for much of anything. The problem is, I can't seem to make myself do my work right away. Or at least I haven't been able to for the past couple weeks, this week I think is better. I wrote out everything I had due, every project that I knew the deadline to, every test coming up, and I've been working down it. It took up a whole page.. too much..

Anyway, I'm getting through it, slowly, but I'm actually doing it rather than putting it off and just sitting here thinking about doing it.

That's my big problem lately. I'll know that there is something I need to do, but I end up just thinking about everything that needs done; therefore, nothing actually got done.

Well, well, well... I just wanted to give you all an update. I'm still here, just busy with courses. Hopefully I'll have time this weekend to update http://through-my-eyes.org , but I don't know yet. I've also been trying to get reviews of my site to hopefully help me before I make my next layout.

Another place that you could possibly find me wasting some time is ArtistDreams. You guys should definetly check it out as it's an amazing place to be :D

And so the first week of the new quarter begins with a schedule of: Color Measurement, Photographic Optics, Physics, & a course I added into yesterday Walt Whitman. Previously I was in a different literature course, but I found out after I went to it on Monday that it was replacing another class in the Liberal Arts requirements and I didn't need it because I'd already passed out of the class it was replacing. Thus, this left me with a course of my choice, and after going to the Walt Whitman class yesterday I really think I'm going to enjoy it.

Beginning my studies the first step pleas'd me so much,
The mere fact consciousness, these forms, the power of motion,
The least insect or animal, the senses, eyesight, love,
The first step I say awed me and pleas'd me so much,
I have hardly gone and hardly wish'd to go any farther,
But stop and loiter all the time to sing it in ecstatic songs.

At least I'll have one class that I'll completely enjoy. It's different, and I love a lot of Walt Whitman's poetry, so I'm looking forward to it.



Sorry I haven't updated this journal recently, I just never really know what to say. Hopefully I'll update more, but who knows.

Anyway... If you are procrastinating or avoiding something and want to have a laugh with some amazing people go join Artist Dreams!

I know I don't use this account like I initially wanted, but I just find it hard sometimes to talk about myself or detail what is going on in my life.

Anyway, today was the first day of finals week. I didn't have any tests, but my physics one is Wednesday. This means I'm going to be free tomorrow as I was today. I'm not too worried about my physics exam, but I'll probably study some tomorrow.

Tomorrow, I also hope to work on a project that I began yesterday. I bought a new domain name and started working on it yesterday, but it hasn't worked at all today so I've been getting annoyed. I'm completely clueless as to what I'm doing, but hopefully all will be well tomorrow.

I can't wait till Thursday, I get to go home for a break finally. I'll probably be completely bored there, but I definetly am ready for a break from classes and such. Pretty early spring break, blah.

Anyway! That's all I have to bore you with at the moment! :)

I hope you all had a great day!!!

I was tagged by [info]hifusion, so here are my guilts:






Guilt
What is yours?
Explain yourself
Culinary: Chicken (Strips or nuggets) I'm the worlds pickiest eater, so if I go to resturants I generally know what I'm getting and it's not the special.
Literary: Nora Roberts Okay, I'm a sucker for Romance Novels, but so is my roommate!! Don't shoot me!
Audiovisual: The Food Network While I'm at school I don't see a lot of movies, and there isn't much on tv... Even though I'm a picky eater I like watching people cook. haha
Musical: Jason Mraz I know, so last year, but I like the fast pace of his songs, so I enjoy singing along. (Is Lame!!)
Celebrity: Ryan Reynolds I had a hard time thinking up anyone.. So Ryan Reynolds.. He's cute and funny.


Now I tag:-

[info]cherry_pops [info]keylock_n_love [info]gigglesmunchkin [info]mind_on_fire and [info]neck_kisses

Another non-real update, lol... Lazy Saturday morning here, and I felt like making more banners for [info]krisgoat. I know the limit was 400 pixels, but I made some longer ones that are better in banner rotations or top-sites, so that's why they are longer.

I hope you like them!

So I haven't updated in a while. It isn't that I don't like lj or anything, it's just that I don't really have anything interesting to say or at least nothing I feel like sharing. Classes are hectic and I'm nearing the end of the quarter so a lot of projects are coming to an end. I've also been working on a number of sites for people back home and for my mom's business so that's what I've been doing when I'm not working on homework.

Anyway, the point of this update... I made some banners for [info]krisgoat :)

Well. I've been back to New York since Sunday. My break was alright, if a little on the boring side. I did see quite a few movies, which I can't remember a lot off the top of my head...Narnia, Memoirs of a Geisha, Fun with Dick & Jane, King Kong, Walk the Line, and some others I don't remember right now. But it was enjoyable. Well....mostly enjoyable. I did get my haircut... originally I wanted long layers and about 6 inches cut off. I had long hair...The lady that did it completely hacked up my hair and it looked like a female mullet. Not good for me. So that night I called my cousin, (who used to do hair), and asked if she could make my hair look normal. To make a long story short, I got about 14 inches cut off & had I known that it was going to get that short I would have just donated it to begin with. Last time I got a haircut I donated 18 inches. This is the shortest I've had my hair in 8 years, but I kindof like it. I'll post before & after pictures later, (I didn't take any of the "mullet" head).

Now onto other news:

I know you guys probably don't want to hear this, but I feel the need to plug my sites...I updated my texture site with 37 new textures & I'm close to hitting 200 800x600 textures. Also I updated my portfolio site! Please if you have time check them out! It would mean a lot if you could offer some feedback!!!



ThankYouThankYouThankYou!!!!!

I don't know what is wrong with me lately, but it seems that I can't concentrate on anything lately and when I try I just get these horrible headaches. I'll try to work on homework, and I just can't work on it so I'll try to work on something in Photoshop only to sit here and do nothing. I'll have the tv on and try to watch some show but get bored after 5 mins so I go back to my homework. I get nothing done and feel like I'm completely wasting my days. I'm generally not like this. If I'm in the mood to do something in Photoshop, I open it and make something. Now I open it and sit their and think of things I could make but never get around to doing. If I have homework or something I need to get done I get my book out and start it. I just can't now. I have no clue why I'm in this mood, but I've been stuck in it for the past couple weeks.

I'm just wasting my days.

Sorry I haven't given a real update lately. I just started my new quarter last week & already I'm busy. I guess my classes will be alright this quarter, definetly different. Last week was my first time printing color in the darkroom, so that was fun! This week we took what we knew about Additive and Subtractive colors & made "negatives" on copy paper and used them to take a coloring book page and color it in with the enlarger. The only colors we could use were red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, black, white, brown, orange, & chartreuse. Definetly an interesting experience. I got out of that class an hour early, I should technically still be in there now. I guess I'll like the majority of my classes, but I'm only in the second week, so I don't know. My first big test is on Monday, and I have a report due on Wednesday for Technical Communication.

10 more days till I go home for break!

    Well, I’m back. I actually arrived back to my dorm room around 9:30. I’ve been up since 4. I don’t know why, but I’m not really tired, just exceedingly bored—or boring as the case may be. I’m already completely unpacked and my room is back how it was before so I’ve been reading for the past 4 hours. A romance novel—yes, it’s an addiction that I haven’t been able to break since I was 15. Anywho…I needed a break and decided I describe the things I did over break. Please feel free not to read if you think it will be boring or mundane.
