another semester, another headache. classes started for this spring on tuesday at the Design Institute. im crossing my fingers and praying that my classes will treat me well this semester because ive got 4more months until this pregnancy is dunzzoooo! i have a big issue with procrastination. it seems that i study harder if i dont do projects until 2 or 3 days before my final project is due but this time i really dont have a choice but to stay on my toes. sometimes, i feel like im never going to finish school but who am i kidding? im only twenty two years old, theres not need for me to rush. ive still got a bunch of years ahead of me but i guess that because i have three kids makes me feel like im old. somtimes, i catch myself thinking about grandchildren and attending PTA meetings! i guess thats what you call 'responsibility.'

insane in the membrane. i dont have time to do things i wish i can do on my spare time anymore. i have a deep passion for drawing, mainly life drawing. last year i took a life drawing class which consisted of nude art. i know it sounds a little uncomfortable but you learn to love the true beauty of art through nudity. if i can, some day, id like to find time to get back into that. it brings out the insanity in me through my hands where im able to express it sanely through charcoal and paper.

on the other hand... my camera has been collecting dust. ive been searching online (since i never have the time or gas to go from store to store) for a flash for my canon as well as a new lens. im just not satisfied with the lens i have, it drives me nutts. bleh. i feel like jessie from saved by the bell. you know the one episode where she starts over dosing on this pills and starts crying to zack saying, 'TIME...THERES NEVER ANY TIME...!' hah. you know what i mean. on the brighter side, i registered for a makeup class this saturday. i dont wear makeup but maybe it'll motivate me to paint peoples faces for the hell of it. it should be fun.
