Hey, it's my birthday I know you all remembered . I actually found some sculpey glaze to coat my polymers, so I guess that means figurines are back onthe horizon! For those of you who have forgotten, let's redocument all my figurine exploits....

The BIG figures


and the figurines :ininja:

(I also made a Chun Li I guess I never posted, and a Hermes [mythological] and an Edward Elric [which sucked]).

But YEAH. I'm gonna work on beads be on the edge of your seat!

That reminds me, I love for getting me my subscription. Also, I have some hats and other sewn goods to soon post. EDGE OF YOUR SEAT!

It's DONE.

OMG.

...over.

Not talking about break. I just finished Harry Potter 7! Oh my lord, I was reading it all day and I finally finished like a half an hour ago. Amazing. Not the actual book, mind you, I've got my quips with Rowling's style, but the actual 'harry potter' experience that is my life has drawn to a close.... that is if you don't count the movies. Those have another couple years coming, and the seventh one will need to be like four hours long.... Hopefully I'll have someone to see it with when it comes out.

Don't want to post any spoilers because I know I avoided them like the plague for months. I'll just say I love Snape, now more than ever. I feel a sudden influx of HP fanart on my part.... hah hah, I did some the past couple day. Don't you laugh at me!!!!

Oh, hey... what about Dumbledore being gay...? Hah hah.... I mean don't get me wrong, one of my best friends is gay, but I found it really... I dunno, weird. Dumbledore's like, a million years old, he should have no sexual preference whatsoever. That, and it sort of made me worry he was coming on to Snape, which, if you've seen the movies with their fine choice in ugly actors across the board, is the BIGGEST nightmare in the world.

...gives me the jibblies...

Oh well, now I'm just wondering where all the Grindewald/Young Dumbledore Yaoi is (not that I want to see it), considering how every other form of non-canon yaoi is everywhere. Maybe canon-ness ruins the fun? I don't know, I won't even try to understand. 'Prolly better for me that way.

So, yeah, break is almost over, heading back to the dorm on like, Tuesday morning, I have class, work, and fencing one after the other after the other.... so from noon to six thirty, all tuesdays will be a likewise nightmare, as you can imagine. Wednesdays are empty and Friday nights are empty too. Monday and thursday I'm free from 2pm and earlier... crazy business.






Who knows if I'll have time for art again?





pshh... we *all* know I will.

Hm, I think I'm feeling a bit better now. I'm an A student in college. AN *A* student. I wish I had a pair of glasses to shine so I would look the part. I got a 93 on my Computer Science test, and a 90 on my philosophy paper. Isn't that astounding? I'm totally preening, but whatever. I never expected this...

I realized something today during library study... There's a SCANNER in the school library! and what can you do with a scanner? SCAN THINGS. Awesome! I should probably get to it at some point. I have to walk to fencing later in the rain, and that should, at the very least, be amusing. I hope you're all doin' good.

.... I really need to finish Harry Potter 7 ....

and that's about all :-D

Well well, everyone or maybe no-one (I think I write these more as a 'because I feel like it' than to fill anyone in because I know only five people probably read it and maybe two thoroughly. Catharsis, perhaps?)  I've, as of Sunday, been at college two weeks. I'm still not thoroughly adjusted but I think things are getting progressively better, or at least hoping.

I'm lucky to have a couple of friends from my old school because I don't know what I'd've done without Kate and Steve. But, anyway, I think I'm making some friends. I actually had dining hall for both meals I went for today with someone to speak to.

I think most of my misery (which is slowly on the decline) is in fact mostly my fault.  I mean, I haven't been 'reaching out' to others because it certainly isn't my nature. I don't just meaninglessly pop in and say "OH NICE LAMP" and hope a conversation ensues because if it doesn't I just look like a creepy lamp-ophile. Also, I really haven't let the usual loud, sarcastic, fun part of myself out. I'm still in fake nice mode, maybe as some sort of defense mechanism, and it's kinda hard to make it go away. Fake nice me is effing boring and I wouldn't want to hang out with her either.

I also am ALWAYS worried about classes. My CPU class is making me nuts because I don't know whether my teacher has stopped grading my assignments and isn't accepting them (which she does based on time but I don't really know how or why or how to know if she has) and my philosphy class is... odd. I think I understand and did well on today's interpretational test but maybe its way over my head and I have understood nothing... If no one else gets it either I'm in the clear, I guess.

BUT I feel like drawing. Did you see the subscription? Isn't it cool? Stu got it for me because she's totally cool. So, now, I need to actually post some stuff, at the very least some sketches. I've done a few lately. I have some acrued, so I will have to riffle-riffle. I really feel like I'm missing so many drawings I did in school.... hmmm....

Well, anywho, that's how it is.
And at least it's hopeful instead of my day three-through-seven day rant at Kate that "they put a bridge on campus so I could jump off it".
:-D

----AFTER THREE. Things aren't better and probably never will be. Optimism is stupid and I don't think I'll ever be happy again for the rest of my life. If these are 'the best years' I can only imagine what working will be like. Dining hall costs a bazillion dollars and I never go. I'm overworked and overwrought and exhausted.

P.S. I'm a little depressed lately,  I think.
