well, that was pretty amazing! i know what i'll be listening to all weekend



in case any of you were interested, this weekend = awful. this coming week will be awful too, but that's okay! we've been setting up our yearly art show at my high school, which is a ton of work to begin with, but seniors get tables of their own too so (as fun as that is) it's a ton of work on top of a ton of work. oh well

i kind of want to do some new art over this lovely break so it's not just me putting up my portfolio again, but whatever. i probably won't have time, seeing as i have to finish my research paper and study for my finals

ah well

/bitch bitch moan moan

oh my jesus

Mon May 18, 2009, 6:04 PM
so i've basically dropped off the face of the earth as far as the internet and art go -- i guess you can blame AP Bio and AP Lit for that, but mostly it's just me being lazy and antisocial

err, i'd like to say that i'm wasting time watching season 4 of house because i have nothing better to do, but i'm wasting time watching season 4 of house and i have to finish a research paper for english by the end of the year.

yeeaahh

well, i got into my college of choice (RIT! land of the freezing cold!) and will be going there in the fall, so all's well that ends well, i suppose

art may be going up over the summer, but, more importantly, i'll be going through all of your lovely works! sorry about the total unannounced hiatus, it's time to start picking up the slack

hope you're all doing okay

ganked from the internet!
