yay for lazy rainy days.
Had a 6 am - 12 pm shift at work today but now I have the house to myself while Ronin and Rob are at work. Been starting to sketch again, got a couple of cool books on the subject to get me more motivated (including a rad how to draw dinosaurs book!! <3).
Went to Busch Gardens the other day with Rob and his roommates -- unfortunately Sheikra was closed *sniffles* still haven't gotten to ride it. It was like 95 degrees out so we decided to wait the 45 minutes to go on the Congo River Rapids -- we finally do and get soaking wet and the second we get off the ride it starts pouring out. lolz. After eating dinner at applebees we went to their house for a night pool party! Twas awesome -- and they have the nicest doggy everrr. ^^;; I want a puppyyyy
So now I need to just take my car in to get fixed and start apartment hunting for the fall! I'm so excited to have a more perminant place of my own :) |

wheeee.
Abney Park and Arc Attack concerts were AWESOME!! Abney park is a steampunk band that sounds like they should be playing on an airship. Seriously, I wanna be a pirate when I listen to their music.
Arc Attack is one of the most unique and coolest concerts i've been too -- they take two giant tesla coils that shoot electricity at eachother and they actually make music with it! They played a bunch of video game theme songs and ended with the imperial march hehe Their final comment was "I hope you all had a good nerdgasm!" xD
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZLdguAzbwg coolest shit ever. (the sounds are seriously coming from the tesla coils) |

First day of Metrocon was really fun :D
Went to a bunch of panels and got some neat tricks for my character drawing in photoshop. There was a little fire show (shinnnyyy) and an awesome rave. Met a really cool guy name Robert whose studying criminology at USF and was wearing a Muse shirt :D. And I had glowsticks! whee
Funniest moment of the night: Dancing at the rave when random guy comes up and hands me a spoon.
*my thoughts * ... I has a spoon! (my spoon is too big?)
Robert decorated it with glowy strings to make it an uber epic glowy spoon. yay!
Two more days of con too ^^;; |

I decided since I am teaching myself Maya to learn to make 3d graphics for video games (and movie effects) I might as well teach myself how to program as well. It would look a lot better to a gaming company if I knew both how to make and animate graphics as well as how to program it into the game :)
So I am currently teaching myself c++ as well. I'm surprised at how easy it is -- for once something makes sense and is actually sticking in my memory :D. It's kinda interesting how I went in a full circle of what I wanted to do when I grew up --
When I was 9 I wanted to be a video game programmer and I went and asked the guy at gamestop what I could use to do that and he sold me a copy of visual c++. I managed to teach myself a bit but at that age it was a lot harder to comprehend and I soon gave up that dream. Then I got certified for SCUBA and have been known as the marine bio girl since. So I guess it's ironic that after 10 years I've gone back to my original dream :p |

Today I finally stood up to Cassia.
I told Sarah the yesterday that Ronin would be coming to hang out with me while I finished my projects today and advised her to not bring Cassia, but of course Cassia still came today to make trouble. So Ronin didn't wanna deal with her bullshit and left while I was stuck in a reallyyy awkward situation, since I needed to finish my projects but I couldn't concentrate because Cassia was there. (For anyone reading this that doesn't know the situation, here;s a quick recap: Cassia got jealous of me over something that wasn't even true, she turned all but 2 of my friends against me and made herself out the be the victim.)
After about a minute I finally turned to her and told her I was uncomfortable with her being there because she had tried to turn all my friends against me and kept calling security on Ronin for bullshit reasons such as "not feeling safe" despite her being in the room laughing for 2 HOURS. She claimed that it was "the school told her to call if she ever saw him on campus again and that she didn't say she felt unsafe." Right. That's why you fucking called them twice in the span of an hour. She's such a liar. So she finally left. Even though i'm sure the rest of her posse will think I had no reason for it, I did because my schoolwork was on the line.
One a happier note --
I learnt how to throw on the potters wheel today! Took me a good 2 hours to get it down but I made a really cool vase and a teapot and some cups :) yayy |

So we went by the SPCA today to see what they had for volunteering positions and they have people who get to play with the cats and dogs to keep them happy. I'm so doing that :D There was a really adorable kitten that I fell in love with but my rents don't want me to get one :( *sigh* I miss having something to cuddle with :( |

So that'll be great for my major! Best part? Our directors renting out the Muvico in Baywalk for the premeire! :D |

First day of class was fun :D (I'm taking clay I)
There are only 3 people in it including me (and one is Sarah!). I love summer classes.
We spent the first half picking up materials at a clay store in st pete (adventure time!) and then ranson (the professor) was like "anyone mind if we go to cafe bohemia and get some coffee?"
... best ... class... everrr |

So I had 6 hours to kill before work today... and this is what I ended up spending it on:
I'm really proud of the background -- and I'm finally starting to get proportions right! except her head is still a bit big for her body but thats okayyyy it's still badass. That's Rhea, my rougue for my new dnd campain i'm running with some friends from work :)
Ohh also--
So i forgot my cell and ronin had my car, thus he had no way to know when to get me. He came by best buy at like 9:30 pm, but I was in the bathroom. When I got out my friend Dani was like:
"so this really sketchy guy in a black trench coat comes in with his hand in his pocket asking for you. I was ready to shank some bitches." lololz |

I finally got my foot checked out today -- no fracture, it's just badly bruised.
I got 5 more things of couscous whooo!!
I've recently gotten addicted to the show Chuck, and I had a little marathon before I went into work ... at Best Buy ... the other day. I kept feeling like some big spy situation was gonna come up :p
Hanging out with the people from my work more often now -- went to IHOP with mike the other day and I was invited to a warhammer 40k tourny being hosted by another one of my friends there. I feel special, it's invite only :p Now I just need to finish painting my necrons ... I decided i'm gonna put green LED lights in my monolith. Was also discussing how rad it would be if I could make it hover. FEAR MY GRAVITY DEFYING MONOLITH! PEW PEW PEW!!
I finally finished moving all of my stuff out of my dorm and into the house. I really hope they weren't serious about that $100 every day you are late in moving out policy. It was my fault though, cause I should have done it sooner. So no one to blame but myself :)
Bandit seems to be liking her new spot in the kitchen. She's been out and about exploring a lot. I just made oven pizza ... i wonder if Milo would like my meatballs on it. *goes to find out*
nope, apparently Milo is not a fan of meatballs. Oh well. that's about it for now! ... I think the neighborhood cat got just got in another fight with the local racoon. It sounds epic out there ... |

So the semester is finally done and I am 90% done moving everything out of my dorm room into our house in gulfport :P
I guess here's a little good/bad list to simplify my thoughts:
+++ awesome house for summer
-- was infested with fleas from the previous owners
+ flea bombed it
--- but was too late and now I look like a zombie from all my bug bites
- giant fucking beetles outside
+++ Stevie devours them (it's badass)
+ Got to blow a glass cup at the artwalk a few weeks ago
+ Waiting to hear back if I got an internship there for the summer
+ Done with all my classes
- got a c+ in psyche *grrrrrrrz*
+ summer clay class starts next week
+ hours are increasing at work
++ STRAWBERRIES!!
--- my legs iccchhhhhh (damn you bugs)
+++++ DAVIDS COMING BACK FROM FRANCE ON WEDNESDAY!!!!
++ Ronin picked up a hot guy for me at the beach :p
--- he smokes and I don't date smokers
++ still flattered that he gave me his number and told me to call though
+++ found out a ton of people at work DnD and warhammer 40k so I can actually get some use out of my armies
-- I'M HUNGRRYYY and we are out of couscous :( *le tear*
One the note of drama, I feel the summer will hopefully clear up the air. Not that it worked out that way last year, but that's okay cause the people involved are a lot more mature than certain people *cough* who hide in bushes instead of confronting the truth (literally).
I guess only the future knows what'll happen next. |

So after a lot of thought I decided to change my major to interdisciplinary arts (a combo between art, music, and film). I had been considering doing this for a while, but I was too afraid to because everyone's always known me as the marine science girl and I didn't wanna let my parents down. I still love marine science, but I am not meant to be a scientist. I had worked on 2 major research projects and I just didn't look forward to going to them. I love the animals, but the research aspect is just not for me. The arts are the one thing I've always had a passion for, and they are my only classes i've truly enjoyed. I'm feeling much more relaxed and sure about myself now that I have made this decision.
On another note, my dad found a nice two bedroom house for Ronin and I this summer -- We're checking it out tomorrow and if we like it then we have a new home starting may 1st!! ^^;; *excited*
So anyone that wants to take a vacation from the north east and come down to beautiful sunny florida, just give me a call and you'll have a free place to stay :D |
