Yeah? I'm usually not confident enough to hold conversations with a teacher, no matter how much I may love them. It's just in my shy nature. I tend to slip away from situations that give me the opportunity to be awkward; always say the wrong thing and such. There are some teachers at some points that I've held some good conversations with. I also try to avoid any kind of praise or compliments. I get so bloody awkward and start to blush and just have to nod my head in agreement.

I go to a college prepratory school, so we have a wide variety of classes. I'd rather take anatomy over environmental, because really, I could care a lot less about the environment. Plus, taking anatomy might look better for the college I'm hoping to get into. I'm aiming for a 4.0 GPA next year and with the way my art teacher grades, I may not end up with a 4.0. Which would seriously, seriously piss me off.

Uh. It's 1:33 AM (I almost said it was 4:00 in the morning, where's my head?) and I'm about to try and write a one-shot or a fiction of some sort because I've got something bottled up inside... Or, trying to look for someon to co-write with somehow. It's easier to be creative writing role play style for me, esp. when writing with someone who is talented. Unfortunately, a lot of writers these days seem to be... Not so much talented? That's mean, but whatever.

School's out for summer, though. Happy about that. :)

English is a class I love, depending on the teacher. I liked 3/4 of my English teachers last school year. But... I don't know. I'm probably going to keep up with art. Because it's a good stress reliever. I just thought it'd look better for the college I want to go to if I took something intelligent. Like anatomy, which I have a big interest in. Anyway. How are things? Haha.

I might not even take art next year. I don't know... She doesn't let us do much original work, either. It's always, 'pick a reference,' or something like that. I'm not saying I'm much good at trying to do something original, but I'd like to give it a chance, you know? Teachers. They really bug me. She doesn't even teach us. I was like... 'I thought this was art class. I'm not learning anything.' :[

See, I believe my art teacher is homophobic, and her grading is bias. She's also known to choose favorites. So, it's kind of hard for me to find confidence when she only liked one of my pieces of this year. I'll have to take a picture of it for you. It's an acrylic, but it's seriously my best work. In my opinion. Though I don't like most of my art, so... My opinion is biased?

Haha, thank you. I blame my art teacher of this year. She's... It's hard to explain. But I'm hoping to buy a new sketchbook this summer and work on some things. I'm a sucker for motivational speeches. This is all your fault!

See, it's just that I believe I'm a terrible artist. I want to learn how to better construct people and figures. My best art is done when I'm not trying. My old DA: ieroisourking.deviantart.com.

Yes, I totally understand. :/ I used to be an artist. I've always wanted more instruction.

Hey, I love your art. :)

XD I'm a bit slow. His stuff is way rad though, and I ended up adding him on Myspace. :tehe:

Ahh, okay. Yeah, I'll look for it tomorrow, I think. I've still got 2+ pages to type for this stupid paper.

OH MY JESUS.

BUCHER. R DAMMIT.

*headdesk x3*

Correction: Stefan B[b]u[/b]che[b]n[/b].

-_- I'm a little stupid.

Meh, well let's see how I can manage painting a snowy scene for, crap what was it called...*looks for notes* Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening. That thing. Yeah, let's see how I can manage that when I've practically no white paint left. I'm too poor to buy more, atm. I could always water down and spray it on, maybe. Dunno. But I'll totally upload it, and you should totes show me yours too.

Ahaha, one day I'll have to go to Seaworld.
Ouch, does it hurt? I don't regularly burn, but sometimes...meh.

Ohai, we just got Photoshop CS4 Extended in the mail. For #300-something. Wrong one too, they gave us Extended instead of just plain ol' PS. Win.

XD I'm much too retarded to figure out Twitter. I'll just kinda stick to Myspace and chill there. And do the bajillion projects due by Tuesday that my English teacher LOVES ME FOR and decided to give me an extension on both of hers. Thank god, otherwise it would've been four and a half this week. *headdesk*

MHM, it kept me walking on air for a week. Next goal is to get them sign it next time they're in the states and possibly paint one of the other guys. Then again I'm still broke, have to pay off my texting overage, have to buy and iPod, and have to buy more paint and canvas. OH WAIT, SPEAKING OF PAINTING AND PROJECTS, I'M DOING A PAINTING FOR PART OF MY MASSIVE POETRY PRESENTATION.

*slams head into keyboard* Leave it to her to give us a huge 5-part poetry project, and I'm the only one without a partner. Nonetheless, I'm doing a painting representation of the woods being covered in snow at twilight, it's for a Robert Frost poem. Probably try to do impressionist if i can. [/randomblathering]

So, whatcha doing in Cali?

:file: I figured I'd say hi. :cute: It's been awhile.

I'm working on my research paper for my graphics class and ended up picking Stefan Bacher as my artist and somehow his work reminded me of you. Man's a genius. Have you heard of him at all?

Er, and I actually did hear from the band about the painting copy. XD A friend talked to one of the guys on Twitter, he said I'm a very good artist and their road manager dude said the road crew took it. So yeah. I'm set. Haha.

How've things been for you?

Haha, sorry. I'm trying to fill in and fix parts of it.

Haha, it's alright. I never go anywhere without my ipod and now I feel naked. It's so sad.

Haha, your teacher is radsauce. :tehe: My teacher just lets me do whatever I want because I do a really good job. The amount of times I've just wandered in with some excuse to get out of my Latin class and just chill there. She adores me. She told me she knew I got into the Academy but wasn't allowed to tell me :tehe: AND today I had to go find a room that I wasn't aware existed, because when I had my schedule redone for next year, my guidance counselor wanted me to play messenger and get someone for her, and I just gave up after scoping out the whole south end of the complex, and just like ran into the room and went, "Mrs. Melusooooo? I can't find this roooommmmm~"
Turns out she didn't even know the room existed either. XD

:tehe: All I'm praying for right now is that I get an answer from the totally coolbeans keyboardist in the band, cuz I Myspace messsaged him and he's notorious for responding to fans. But yeah. That's all I want, just an answer from him to let me know if they actually got the fanstuff I got up there.

>.> Oh, sliiick. He doesn't have to know that though. Heh.
:cheese: I know. I'm dying. My parents aren't like other parents; they won't buy me a new one. Because it's my fault. Like, if I'm the one who broke it or lost it, it's my fault, and I have to pay. If it, like, died of its own accord, then they'd pay. Stupid life. I was SO going FMLFMLFML all day yesterday because I was searching everywhere. My unicorns died.

Ahaha. We're not allowed to have that few classes. We [b]need[/b] to fill up our schedule for the whole day. :con: But I totally intend on being the artistic recluse all my senior year too. There's only gonna be two mandatory classes, English and gym. I can probably arrange something to get out of my lunch. Then I'll just be in the Academy, writing, graphics, photo....and whatever else. :XD

YES IT DID. OH MEIN GOTT. *passes out* Not only was it the greatest show I've ever been to, but I was THIRD ROW in standing room. And I'm extreeeemely short. I have some amazing photos too, I turned one of them into a pin. *insert heart floating over my head here* I was [b]supposed[/b] to meet the band with my friends, they won a contest, but seeing as there was traffic and shit...I didn't. I almost cried (ended up crying the next day though) there, but I thought fast and the huge copy of it ended up downstairs by the VIP eating area (to keep it safe, coz the customers loved it and the security dude was coolbeans). When the first band went on, I yanked the amazing new black Sharpie out of my bag and started writing frantically on the back of it, in big (as neat as I could manage since I have shitty handwriting) writing, a letter to the band. Explaining what happened. Later, near the end of the show, me and one of my friends' friends held it up for a minute or so when Strify came to our side of the stage, and the few people in front of us chain-handed-it-off onto the stage, and the crew pulled it to the side. Later I got the security dude to take my letter to the band too. *cheesy grin* It was amazing. Some of the better photos are in my photos thread on the boards.

Never heard of them, but they're probably snazzy. It's pretty damn sweet that you're doing some art for them. XD I'd kill to do that. And no, the painting doesn't count. :file: I'm utterly heartbroken and all ashaioghaiog because I LOST MY IPOD. MY FUCKING BABY. *sob* I think it fell out of my pocket after 5th period two days ago. I was freaking out yesterday and everything...but I know that a nice nano like that (second generation) isn't going to come back to me. It's going to be reset and used or sold. So damn. I have to save up to get a refurbished one now. :cute: For the same price as a brand new stupid nano (which I hate, I hate those stupid new nanos) with only 16GB, I can get a classic refurbished 80GB.

Danke! Only now, for next year, instead of taking seven courses like most of the student body, I'm taking [b]nine[/b]. An early-morning gym to get the actual Academy class in, and then an at-home online advanced writing course.
:cute: Haha, I kinda don't like most of what I posted; it's from earlier in the school year before we learned a lot.
:tehe: Right now, I'm rather into making pins. It was one of our projects, so I made a Cinema Bizarre one, and I'm sort of addicted to it. I'm making a second CB one for me, and then a few random pins that my friends are asking for. Heh.
Oh! And that painting, the copy of it ended up on stage for the concert. I won't annihilate you with the details unless you're really interested.
Mm, what band? And what are you aiming to do, for starters? Or do you just have no ideas whatsoever? XD

:tehe: I got my acceptance letter today.
XD And got an award for one of my graphics pieces in an art show; there were only two graphics winners.
I'll post a bunch of my art. I figured out how to turn Photoshop stuff into internet-friendly stuff.

Yeah
its the same for me.
like I wanna be a musician, but then I'm leaning towards becoming an actress more.
:[ its so complicated :[
