One Day I will finally complete some illustrations and figure out something productive to do with them. Until then I will hastily edit them together so I can avoid making new work solely for my art classes.

Sep. 8th, 2008 @ 08:35 am weird week.
so, yeah.
how days work in mikeland:

Wake up - 10:30a
School 1-5p (1-10 wednesday)
10-1 sleep
5:30-6:30a I go to the lake and watch the sun come up from a swingset
8-10:30 sleep

The first week back has been kinda slow, but I'm kinda panicking because there is NO WAY I can do 4 lab art classes at once, and I'm not technically qualified to be in half my classes. That and my oil painting class is going to knock out any and all free cash for the duration of the semester. Required classes really shouldn't consume $500+ cash in expendable supplies.

Partied all weekend, but really didn't. I was just kind of in the presence of partying. I'm kinda kicking myself for not taking it harder, Between classes and social junk, I literally met about two hundred people this week. I can't remember one single new name.

I woke up this morning at three and watched Macross Frontier with my roomate's cat ( I figured I should catch up, seeing as I named the only productive thing I did this summer after it) Then went to the lake at dawn to take photos. I ran out of film yesterday, so I went a little later than usual so I could get brighter coverage.

dull stuff.

These are some things I've been working on recently. As per usual, nothing is done and I'm pretty much stuck on all of them.

Jun. 10th, 2008 @ 03:15 pm The other day
The other day I walked out of work and saw one of the High school football starz working construction in the rain, struggling with a wheelbarrow, and smiled a little 'cause I'm a bastard.
Then I realized I was broke,standing with my broken heel in a puddle, smoking my last cigarette, and unsmiled a bit.

Sidenote: Wheelbarrows still exist!?

Saturday was one of the best days I can remember.
Sunday I napped a bit
Today( monday) was far and away one of the worst days I can remember.
to the extent I don't really want to detail it.

Though somehow, like a thumbsup from god, the first episode of Shigurui was fansubbed today. It's the second tv show from the director of my absolute favorite show (Texhnolyze). It's prettymuch the only thing that can dent my mood at this point, but it's a pretty bleak story.

So I dunno what tomorrow is going to be like.

But my chemistry of photography teacher is litterally the most useless person to ever be in a position of power over me.I'm sitting writing a lab report (the first of the class, despite counting as a lab credit) for a lab we only did a third of.I( and a group of 3 others) litterally spent two hours of my life last class re-measuring and remixing Iron blue toner because she kept giving us the wrong acid to mix with. I'm transcribing it from a sheet she handed out. Last class I'm not sure how she functions in real life. I guess she doesn't. one day she told a story about the time she had police break into another teacher's appartment because she forgot he moved to Florida.

some people are just BROKEN.


The class ends tomorrow. I'm pretty much blowing everything off. I've got a med-low A, and in reality her participation/tilt grade decides where I land more than anything I've still got left to do. So I'm writing an incoherent lab report and putting it in a gorgeous folder.

dinnertime conversation that actually happened/ aren't you glad I don't drink?

Mom: I almost got you that nicholas cage movie with the fire.
Me: ladder 48
sister: Ladder 49! nice!
dad: close enough
mom:no, not that one.
*everybody thinks of another nicholas cage movie with fire*
me: ghost rider?
mom: yeah!
me :oh
mom: isn't it very good?
me: I heard it has a southern rock soundtrack
dad: is that bad?
mom: what's considered southern rock?
me: I dunno... Oasis?

May. 14th, 2007 @ 04:35 am And I got the worst haircut of my life yesterday ( sleepy rambling)
Current Music: Portugal, the man
I finally got to register for classes today. Just now. at four in the morning. 8 days before classes start. In my pjs.

It's early/late, so I'm going to use lists to convey my frustration.

conceptual issues with summer school, columbia, and registering two weeks late.

4)RAAAAGH

5) the end result is I have 11( of 14)credit hours outside my major that apply towards absolutely nothing.

It's just shit. I'm going to be drawing LESS once I go to art school.

I am home alone and there is nobody here to explain the (litterally) 12 pounds of sour cream in my fridge.
