Final Countdown

Well, my first semester at Cameron University is coming to a close. Next week is finals. It's been a good ride, all in all.

Cameron is a pretty cool college. With Art as my major, I found myself stuck with the same students over and again, which suits me just fine-- It's really the only way I ever get to know people. And my teachers were AWESOME. My drawing teacher in particular was very nice and helpful. She's the kind of person that operates on positive feedback, which I thrive under.

My English teacher was also pretty cool. I wasn't sure about him at first, but now I think he's great. Partially because he likes my essays, but also because he's funny in a dorky way that I can relate to. He also likes Zombie movies and books, proving him a man of good tastes.

So I have one busy week ahead of me. I have 4 essays, 2 art projects and 4 tests to finish. But I feel that I have used my time wisely (something which I never managed to do in high school or while I was at DLI) and thus, I will be well prepared for the week ahead.

I just love how anytime I am in an art class my drawing ability improves exponentially. Here is the proof: my last homework and in-class drawings.





Cool huh?

I am excited about the summer. In two weeks and two days I will be flying home to visit my family. In June I will start my summer classes. I will be taking Chemistry, with a lab. It is an unpleasant subject, I'm afraid, but having only one class will give me plenty of time to do it right, and hopefully I will also have some time to do some illustrations for the novel Curtis is writing.

I may draw some at home (is it strange that I still consider PA my home?) Charcoal is my new favorite medium for drawing, so if anyone, meaning mostly my mom or my sister has a photo they want drawn in charcoal, they should ask me when I'm there.

I Can't Blog Right Now.

Sorry, I just don't have time to blog today. I've got a stupid paper to write, a design project to work on and an Art History test to study for.

And to top it all off, Curtis and I won't be home at all Saturday because we're driving down to Texas to play role-playing games with some friends.

So yeah. No time for blogging.

So I'll just post another drawing and that's all I can do:

I just bought an ATB cd for 10$ that has 40 songs on it, three of which are more than an hour long. Now THAT's value! I didn't even have to listen to it before hand. With 40 different songs by the best DJ on the planet there's bound to be at least a few that I like.

I also got 9 pretty decent shirts at the thrift store the other day for 11$! This has been a good week for good values I guess.

But wait. I'm not supposed to be blogging. I'm supposed to be writing a paper.

Ugh.
