  • Finally done with that bitch of a project! Remember my instant classic "Grace"? Here it is, to jog your memory: Well, I had to reinvent it (not this particular photograph, but a "subject. I chose this photograph…

  • This project is even harder than I thought it would be. I'm not even done with the studies yet. Ugh. (Fortunately, I have frozen yogurt to counter my frustration.) I plan to rent this movie and watch it with Greg t…

  • Greg and I spent the past couple of hours at Arundel Mills Mall, and he just went to go take his brother to work. He'll be back soon, and then we'll go see "A Scanner Darkly" at Muvico. Should be pretty awesome. Watch…

  • I feel weird all of a sudden. Like I should cut off all my hair and take up rock climbing or something. Do you ever feel like that? (I mean, not the hair and the rock climbing, but the weirdness.) ten years living …

  • It liiives!! (Well, not yet.) I have completed THE ultimate playlist of songs from 1990 to 2000. Total songs: 100. It's amazing. Trouble is, I still haven't purchased about 23 of the songs needed to complete it. Worki…

  • So here we have the project I submitted last Thursday. I forgot to take pictures of it then, so I took pictures of it when I got it back today. (I got the equivalent of a B++, by the way.) It's hard to tell because th…

  • Finally done! Okay, the concept: Shape Wars. There are two armies of different shapes (and in my case, they're also different colors) fighting a battle, and as they collide, new shapes form (of a different color). …

  • This project is SO much more complicated than I thought it would be. Remember the bas-relief project? ...Okay, it's not nearly as complicated as that, but it's still quite a lot of fuss. Results tomorrow, I promise. An…

  • Wow. Busy week. Lots of class, and work, and hanging out with my aunt Darla, who came in on Tuesday. Fun times. She's got the funniest stories. Greg and I saw a hilarious movie. It was mostly hilarious because it h…

  • AP scores have arrived. Did I forget to mention that? I think I did. Okay, so here they are, in order of badness: English Language: 2 (Ouch.) English Literature: 3 (No good, you need a 4 to pass.) French: 3 (I can't…

  • It lives!! I've finally finished that exciting-yet-much-harder-than-it-seemed-to-be project. Wanna see my step-by-step process? Okay. Luckily, I took pictures along the way, especially for you to see. So enjoy, dammit.…

  • Sorry it's been awhile, guys. Been überbusy. Lots of class, and my first day of work was on Wednesday. I'm really very good at shelving books, I believe. Just not very fast. That will come with time, I hope. I have…

  • So, my class is going well. Lots of cutting and pasting, so far. And lectures on the importance of negative space and other such things. But it's still really interesting, and I like it. Also, I've been spending lo…

  • It liiives!! Detail: So yeah, the explanation: You cut up a bunch of shapes out of black construction paper, and glue them to the inside of a big white rectangle using rubber cement. Leave space betwee…

  • I now have a ton of art supplies! Yay! And I'm almost done with my first assignment, which is difficult to explain, so when I'm done I'll take a picture and post it, okay? Okay. And last night, Greg and I went to s…

  • So the first day of school was really pretty good. My teacher is very nice, and very passionate about teaching, which is cool. He also seems pretty laid-back, but strict, too, which is good. And hey, it's ART, so what…

  • Sorry for the delay--my account on my computer was being really messed-up, so I had to copy all the documents, music, photos, etc. into a new account, then delete the old one. So yeah. Problem solved. Anyway. The t…

  • The truth is, I thought it mattered...I thought that music mattered...But does it? Bollocks--not compared to our people matter... Name that tune! By the way, who said that? And who was he kidding? Anyway. Keep…

  • We're leaving in about an hour for Lake Mackinac (saw MAK-ih-naw), Michigan, to attend my cousin Bill's wedding. Be back Monday around midnight. My parents didn't have the time to shop for them for a wedding gift, s…
