Well, I've gotten a fat lot of jolly great things done today :P One meal and that was about two hours ago. Go me.

I should have just used two swipes and gotten a fresh pizza all to myself :P

Anyway, I've got a project to do for studio. Make useable art out of 100 identical items. I've decided that I will be using index cards, rubber cement them together back to back, and I'm going to carve the 100-pieces-stuck-together into either a mini!grandfather clock or... something else, entirely. I've got two other stacks of index cards, just in case I found something else to be interesting or if I messed up on this stack. I just really like the idea of something so infinite and not there, yet everywhere, like time to be constructed out of something that would almost disintegrate if it got wet :P

Would be extremely amusing to see a clock made out of marshmallows X)

Oh well, that's my idea and I'm sticking with it. Due Wednesday.

My hair is officially white-blonde. Like this. I honestly don't look like myself anymore. Told mum yesterday on the phone that I had gone blonde, but its MUCH lighter than it's ever been before. She's pleased that I've settled in well enough to change myself without thinking of what other people might think, I think oO; heh ^^;

Ukrops is looking to hire, I asked today -- unfortunately, I was in a hurry and I had sodas, AND Alexis wanted me to go to Kroger with her, so I didn't get an application today. I *WILL* get one tomorrow. Cross my hearts ;)

So much work to do this weekend. I'll probably lock myself away, again, like I did LAST weekend...

Oh well, back to the drawing board. (haha, I defaced a new sketchbook just now :P )

...

I want to see pictures of my baaaaaybeeeeee~~~ ;^;

Still up, but I'm gonna grab a little nap so I don't fall over between now and the end of my english class this afternoon :P

Up, around, going to class <3

So I went to english class...

...at some point, the girl from the 16th floor comments on my shirt (the green one from a while back ago that I bought with that pale green floral skirt) and then Alexis is like "Oh, wait, I haven't seen that shirt before, lemme see!"

...

"Ashley oo; you have a bust!"
"Yeah, I know."
"...I always thought you were, like, an A. You hide it so well! You could be a C!"
...
"...I am a C. I just don't flaunt it."

Odd girl, noticing my boobs =P

Too much noise in this residence hall, owwies my head -_-;

So... I've gotten back into my weekend slump.

Coming right out and saying it: I know a lot of people that have been in direct contact with me have instantly picked up on my mopey-ness today and last friday. They also noticed last weekend that I was nearly inaccessable. Just couldn't find me, even though I was in the room most of the time. I can hide well when I want to, I really can.

One really big spot of bother, right now, is the subject that I've chosen for my english essay. Even though it's the best thing to write about because I can describe it so clearly, my dreams are not to be taken lightly. And some of the ones I highlighted were some of the ones that bother me the most.

Not good, considering the fact that I'm basically dreading the revision process for fear of re-living one of those dreams, yet again. I'm just glad that I can type something while looking at it without actually transfering the emotions to myself, or I would have been blubbing in the computer lab wednesday. Eh, I'll get over it.

Headaches are starting to plague me again. Bank account is dwindling. I went job hunting again today and, apparently, the only place hiring within walking distance is Ukrops -- have a Subway and a Movie Gallery app, too, though, they're not hiring, but they're 'taking applications'. Hat in ring, so to speak.

...being pushed to be around people 24/7 is also getting tiring and slighly irritating. I don't want to push them away and then appear rude, but I just ignore them and appear rude and they leave on their own.

This shit with Tricia isn't helping. And I just want to go home and play with Spice so very much right now. Give Cinni a kiss and an apple and let her sniff me all over while she's looking for her bucket of feed. I want to see the lamb that was born two weeks ago.

I have a week and a half more before I have to revert to all morning classes Monday through Thursday. Which screws up with my sleeping patterns (or lack thereof) and I'll end up either half-dead or I'll have to start forcing myself to go to sleep earlier. 8:30 mornings are not my idea of fun, let me tell you.

I have to figure out how to use the public transportation system in just a few hours -- I need to be at the fair grounds to deliver my two pieces of artwork for display tomorrow... I still need to print the digital piece and mat it properly. Not only that, but I kind of need to figure out how to properly 'hang' the portrait. And baleet my signature. Meh.

There are a few other places that I can look for a part-time job... there's a Pizza Hut across the street, a Papa Johns somewhere, a Community Pride Plus (grocery store)... ugh. I don't want to really think about all of this, I just want a job close by that won't have me beating my head over the door by the end of a work-day. That's all I want.

...at least my 4-page essay that ended up as 6-pages was spoken of this way:

I feel as though I have been looking through an out-of-focus kaleidescope, or through a glass darkly.

But, then, we ask our students to take risks with their writing, to look beyond ships and kings and trivial things. You have good work.

The only mistakes in the entire thing were entirely due to re-typing it in a total of 10-ish minutes and not having time to actually go back and make sure the spell check was doing what I wanted it to (thin instead of think... I can't call it stupid, it's just doing what it's built to do) and I didn't have time to reformat my journal entry that I used at the very end from my usual oO; !!! -- ... to normal writing. I did take those bits out, but I didn't put in all the additions and embellishments that should have been in the final draft.

And my 100-index-card mini!grandfather clock is coming along quite nicely, I think.

...I have some last-minute notes to put together for Art History (so Kristina can gather them up for studying, as we have an exam on the first three chapters this Tuesday) and I still need to complete my 8-views from a mirror for 3-D/Line.

Good grief, I'll be glad to be out of that class in three more sessions, but... meh. 8:30am classes until the end of the semester. Figure Drawing I, Sept 30th until Nov 2nd... and then, oy, 3-D Design at the Bowe Street Parking Deck from Nov 4th until Dec 9th :P

...

At least all of my days will end by 2:15pm starting the 29th of this month!!

...

Ranting, yes. Bite me :P
