Q3- Week 11

It's that time of the quarter again when all the students at school turn into zombies. A mixture of video games, procrastination and socializing resulted in a single hour of sleep this morning. I only have to endure this madness for just three more days, and I will be in the sweet abyss of my home with my fat cat at my side.

If you do it today, tomorrow will be easier.
It's too bad I don't have tomorrow.

Food or Art?

So I figure that if I just stop eating, I can buy all the art books/computer software/fun goodies I want at an accelerated rate.

But if I'm dead I won't be able to use them.

Wot a dilemma.

Just a Bit of Insight

Thought this was cool and wanted to share.
What words do you see first? Look closer, what else do you see?

On another note, we used a paper towel roll as a rolling pin yesterday. It was cool because it worked.

Ohh Burn!

So I don't know if I've ever mentioned that I work at school. I'm a note taker - meaning I take notes for specific people those who need extra help.

Today when I came into one of the classes I note take for, there was a camera crew in. Apparently they were going to film the presentations for the fashion students' project "Trash to Fash." They take trash and recycle it to make wearable goods.

Anyway, the director was setting up and asked the girl next to me if she wanted to be on camera and that chick said no. Then the director looks me up and down for a moment, and then walks away without a word.

Man what a burn. I guess I stick out as a MAA student. :) Yay me.

On another note, midterms next week! Projects will own me for the weekend.

By the way, I'm turning this into my personal blog and from now on will be posting my artwork at http://scribblesanatomy.blogspot.com instead.

Checking in

Quarter 3's actually been pretty busy for me. :) At least all of the classes are interesting, and doing homework is fun. I don't think I've done this many character turn arounds in a week before... the start of something new :O

Sorry I don't have any new art to post. I actually haven't been on the web too much lately. Mostly I just spend my time watching movies online now and relaxing between homework sessions. My Deviant Art should be hitting 500 deviations or so soon. Oh gosh.

Fabiola moved into my room :O Oh, and I got three new roommates this quarter. Hmmm...

The start of the end of my "social life" is coming to an end. Oh noes.

Back to homework I guess. Sigh :(

Quarter 03 AKA Winter 09

The start of school is just around the corner as my break slowly dwindles into nothing. My break was thoroughly enjoyable, spending most if it with those I love most: my family and my friends.

Winter 09 is going to be a ball. I'll be taking five classes and working two classes at school taking notes (yeah don't ask). To an art student, this basically means the shortening of homework time and more money. On a brighter note, the dreaded "walk to school" will also be over with the year of 2009 due to my brand new Ferrari! ... But I lie because it's not new and it's not a Ferrari. It's a '99 Chevy Malibu. Bite my furry butt - or someone else's furry butt because mine lacks fur.

As for classes, I'm finally out of taking those dreaded fundamentals in which the common person should know! ... Yet apparently my school is full of the uncommon. We are, after all, an art school. This quarter, I'll be doing sweat shop labor in Sculpture, forced to draw until my fingers bleed in 2D Animation, whipped to be sure that I learn the art of Type *cough*, how to Manipulate Images to do my every bidding and lastly how to Design Characters and Objects of mass destruction.

Overall, it means three months straight of little sleep, lots of working and thrills... and it shall commence Monday. Oh, I love our school.

On another note, I've decided to create some 2009 Resolutions for Art.

1. Draw backgrounds
   
2. Improve at drawing people
   
3. Draw characters that exhibit personality
4. Draw out of the norm - stay away from the familiar
5. Make appealing concept art

Yay for 2009.

Vacation

As fun as it would be to spend my entire break blogging, I'd rather sleep and eat.
:) Happy holidays everyone.
