So, a trend that I've noticed among my friends on here before me, once they have gone off to college, they are less and less frequent on this website. i find that I'm doing the same. I was in the process of uploading all my high school stuff, but i kinda stopped… I think it's because I'm spending more time out participating and learning and creating. Sorry if y'all were interested in my art, that I've kept you waiting. I'm going to go edit some things now and upload them, hopefully in order.

Hey y'all

How's it going? I feel like i haven't been on here in forever, but it's only been a few weeks. 
Art school is going great. Well, community college, but art major. It's so much fun. Advice: if you don't want to put in effort to go back and relearn things you know, don't do it (unless you took AP and can skip basic classes.) More than half my class never comes to my Drawing I class, and it's so sad. Why did they do this if they don't want to attend the class? 
My favorite is Color Theory. Looove it.
Making friends = Yay!
Work is aiight. Double shifts every weekend = not yay. Money = yay. 
I still have to put up all my art from last school year. i swear, it's all on my computer. i just have to make it look nice. 

I really want to go to France. I think about it every single day. Waterlilies. The gardens. The Eiffel Tower. Normandy. Cannes. Nice. Shopping. Food. Music. Beaches. Smoking. Healthy food. Free Healthcare. Other nearby countries to which i can travel for the weekend. Love. Romance. Lazy mornings sharing a cigarette on the balcony in my underwear with my husband. Wine at night. Art. Museums. Architecture. Rodin. Monet. Van Gogh. 
And that's all I think about. Except boys. But I need to stop that. I need to focus. I need to sleep.

to try and write a song without singing out loud.

Mika is awesome, btw. If you don't know him, go look him up. Best person ever. Inspiring. 

I've been having mojor wring blocks and idk why. Probably because I write about love too much and I don't have anything at the moment. Nothing strong enough. That could ever be, that is. Fucking a.

COLLEGE

3 min read
HEY GUYS! HOW ARE YOU?

School started a month ago, and I'm officially in... COLLEGE!! Art major, of course! It's been so much fun so far! I have an art seminar, which sucks, but we're working on writing about our art and that boring part. I also have Drawing 1, 2D design, and Color Theory & Painting (it's one class), English 101 and Calculus. 
And, unlike how I thought it would be, it's actually a lot of FUN! I'm enjoying all the lessons and assignments. I'm learning a lot of new stuff and techniques, half of which I knew but am refining. 
And I'm also spending a lot on supplies which really sucks. 
So, I"ll be puting up some of my Color Theory stuff because it's in presentable condition. I also still have all of my stuff from LAST YEAR that I still need to put up.. 

For Color Theory, I have it once a week, for three and a half hours, from 6 to 930 pm. Yeah, it is a LONG class, but today I was painting, and realized that it's actually a really good length, especially for a painting class, because you have so much time in which to complete what you're working on, and you don't start and stop so quickly you forget what happened and breeze right past it. My other two art classes are two hours, and it's a perfect length. Not too long where it drags on, and not too short where you can't finish anything. 

The only that's not good is that I feel scatter-brained a lot more. At least having different classes on different days forces m to know what day it is. although I've been waking up at the latest time possible to just make it to school on time for class. And my math teacher always starts early, which blows.

I've made some friends, and I'm actually going to the Renaissance Fair Saturday with two of them, one is from high school. I've been hanging out with my other friends a lot. I'm very happy with life right now. I have no desire to return back to high school. I went their once, but it was enough. I don't want to see my old art teacher. The only ones I want to see are my math and french teacher, that's it. i don't want to go to drama, I don't want to hear about their social drama. I don't need or want it. I'm so happy right now, going to my art classes, being on top of things, having the friends I do, and doing things my own way, going to work, and being a responsible person. I love it, and I wish this could last forever... or at least until I go to France. That's still my goal. 

If you know who I am, or have me as a friend elsewhere, PLEASE KEEP ANNOYING ME PUT STUFF UP ON DA BECAUSE I WILL FORGET. I will forget. I will forget. I will forget. I will forget. I WILL FORGET. 
So yeah. Please, I insist. 
Plus, it'll give you a good excuse to talk to me :)
