College

My classes have been absolutely amazing so far! On Mondays and Wednesdays, I have Art History, Yoga, and Photography. On Tuesday and Thursday, I have Design I, and my Biology lab on Tuesdays only. So far, the first two days have been uplifting! I know someone in all of my classes except Photography, but I can totally befriend the girl that sat two seats away from me. She seems.. nice?

Anyways, today I was waiting outside my classroom 30 minutes before it started and I found out some girl named Angelica changed her class from the afternoon to my class time. Then I found out this girl from my Design II class was also in my Design I class. So that was good to find out!

BUT NOW, the most important thing of today.

I finally got back my Drawing II art pieces, and found out one of 'em is going to be in my college's student art show. So., I'm excited, even though I hated that art piece. But, hey! At least it's something.

I just need to attend my Biology lab, get my blood pressure checked, buy a yoga mat, and then I can finally settle down and soak in the happiness.

Tomorrow is going to be fun, we're going to use a pin-hole camera. I'm unbelievably excited.

Illustration

My friend Alex texted me earlier and he gave me something to draw. We were talking about dreams, so I ended up drawing a scenery from his dreams after giving me some details. I decided to use pastels since I hadn't touched them in a long while.


I really need to start working on illustration more often. :D

I'm still tweaking it a bit, but here's what I did tonight:

Habbit

I should write in this blog more often, I always forget about this thing. Anyways, today I went with my sister to LCC to buy my books for class and apparently we spent over $900 books. And to top that all off, most of them were mine. Now that's pretty sad, especially since I bought USED textbooks. Oh, well.. I'm excited for this coming semester, so it's alright. I'm taking Art History, Design I, and Photography. This will complete all my art basics.


Anyways, I'm starting to come up with more ideas for my take on the Sketchbook Project, my theme is Sleepless. I've done the cover and two entries so far. They're not my best, but I like them very much.

I'm going to read for the rest of the day. :3

I need more artistic stimulation!

Hope

This summer has had it's ups and down, but this past weekend was just magnificent. I hung out with a group of friends on Friday and it had been the most fun I've had in a long time. I'm glad that I chose not to be such a recluse and get out of the house that day. Then yesterday (Saturday), Alex came over and we just talked and looked for meteors all night (Alex saw 17, I saw 14).


Truly, this summer has been the best. Even though there has been a period of sadness, everything is alright. And just for some reason right now, I found hope. Hope that there's always going to be a better tomorrow. The hope of being able to enjoy life. The hope of falling in love.

My judgement may be impaired right now, but this has been the most uplifting mood I have ever been in a long time.

Here's to hoping tomorrow will be a spectacular day.
