So, this semester is turning out better than the last. I have a way better Illustration teacher. His name is Eric Palma and I suggest you look him up. I can relate to his work in a way. I am pretty interested in the R.A. position for next year and look foward to the connections class again. I have planned to an extent what I want to do for the next 6 or so months. I will take classes in the summer to lighten my load next semester and maybe be an R.A. over summer to prepare for the following semester. Amazing. I have been told from various sources the ups and downs of the job.
#1: I will be getting a free room
#2: The job will take up some of my free time
#3: I will be responsible for people on my floor and events made for it
#4: I will not encourage underage drinking
#5: I must help anyone that asks for it

There is more, but I'm in for the responsibility and getting involved with everyone parts. Money from the job is nice, but that is the least important part of the job. So in light of all of this I decided to download the Naruto: Shippuuden episodes from 1 to 76. I have to say, I haven't laughed as hard as I did today with it. Also I have taken a liking to Ink drawing and location drawing. I will update and post a page with the finished work whenever I get to it. In the mean time... Yamato has something to say.


"Is something wrong?"

Up Coming Week

The following week I have to get my projects prepared for Survey.  That word I now dread.  I have been awake until 5 in the morning for 3-4 days this week and I'm sick of it.  As soon as I get home I am not doing work until that late.  I feel like I failed a class.  I'm not too happy about that.  I also evaluated my teachers this week.  Bill and Rudy are my least liked teachers.  I can't wait for next wednesday to come and go.  I also have much to do as in get my children book printed and touch up things so I don't SUCK.  However that didn't change how I felt in my Illustration class earlier.  People are so much better than me that I want to jump off my balcony.  I also heard about a company wanting interns for next semester and maybe the summer.  I hope I can get this job because I need money and in the summer I'll be closer to Angela distance wise.  Picture related; it's a page out of my children book.

Turkey Count Down

I have been going about my semester with horrible success.  My projects seem to almost never end.  I have to spark up my finished pieces in 3 weeks.  I have little time for play.  In the mean time my vacation starts after I get out of World Civ tomorrow (technically today since it is 2:13 a.m. ET).  I won't be going to my other classes because I can do so.  My Illustration class is a bitch with herpes pretty much.  I can not wait until I get to xmas break though because no work will be involved.  I have been consistently waiting until the last day or so to do work as a result of being lazy.  I also have around 15 dollars left on my meal plan.  I have to resort to buying food and stocking up for the couple of weeks I have left.  On a more cheerful note I am overwhelmed with joy at our new president, Barack Obama.  I don't see how people can think he is the Antichrist.  Hopefully our economy will improve once he kicks good old George out of the house.  In speaking of improving economy I saw a commercial today on the MTVU network that bluntly said, "We are asking for your help to make a video game that will resolve this economic mess we're in."  How stupid does this sound?  Very.  It gets an 8 out of 10 on my stupid bar (the bar that knocks the smart out of things).  I can't quite say how lucky I am, though it took no effort, to have witnessed the Avett Brothers live the last weekend.  I saw them in Ithica's Stage Theatre and let me tell you that they fucking rock.  To me, they beat out ZZ Top live.  Unfortunately they are the only shows I've been to so far.
