so, i spent a lot of today driving. well, maybe not a lot, but more than usual.
i had to get up early to drive matt and dad to school and work so i could have the car. i got back around 8:30 and went back to sleep. it was nice.
course, the night before i was up till around 4... mom caught me still up at 3 when she brought a cat in to sleep with me. i told her i was going to bed then, but i just waited till she left before going back to what i was doing. which was reading this story on sapayne, which i haven't done in a while. somehow it's different now that i'm the one paying the monthly fee... which makes sense, i guess...
anyway, i watched the episode of house that was on tuesday when i did get up, and then it was time to get dressed and leave... for carver!!!
it's rainy and gross...
yasha and i met at carver for cafe. it's mediterranean week. he had a tasty looking shrimp wrap and i had pasta with pesto sause. very tasty. dessert was baklava, but not as good as mom makes it. of course.
we followed adashek to anatomy. on the way i was waylaid by stoll, who has really pretty curly hair now. she was excited as always, and it was nice. we darted in and ran to a table in the back to sit on. joseph was doing the potato and saltine test thing today, and we wanted to stick around for it. but there were other teachers to visit so we had to leave. we went to cook's, and found bri when we got there. cook was busy writing the last of his scholatic recommendations, so we couldn't stay for that long. then we found nate and followed him back to moore's class where yasha talked to her and i talked to nate. and then we went to the office and left a note for steele about the duct tape thing. yasha has to put together a nice email for her with pics and descriptions and stuff, and we're gonna try to get a meeting with her next friday to talk it out.
and then i drove home. i stopped at caribou on the way and got the best drink in the world, a turtle mocha. tasty.
i meant to get right into my drawing when i got back, but mom was in the family room and i didn't want to bother her or anything with the tv... so i ended up in my room, back on sapayne, until i had to go get dad.
and oh my god, that was the worst driving i've ever had to do. it's rainy and awful and dark out, and that was NOT fun. it's a good thing i'm so familiar with ward's chapel and berryman's and shit, otherwise that could've been very bad indeed.
so, having got nothing done on my drawing, i've got to finish it before, like, 3 tomorrow. hopefully val will be checking after that, or will check people and go back a bit later to check again, or something like that. cuz i've still got another 4-5 hours of work to do on that stupid thing before it's really finished and i can be happy with it.
wow, i haven't done a pic-a-day post her since thanksgiving. i've got a few more in the facebook album, but i've been slacking in the picture-taking over the past few days. ok, not since, like, thursday or friday.

break....
i'm a horrible person... i didn't update this all break... i did take pics, but i forgot saturday...
today! yay! back in the dorm...ok, so. thanksgiving. at the murphey's. mom made 2 pies, a cheesecake, cookies, whipped cream. pop-pop did the turkey and the gravy, lynne did everything else. after dinner we played trivial pursuit! but it was girls vs guys so my parents wouldn't be on the same team and kick everyone's ass... cuz they rule at trivial pursuit. and we played guitar hero on the wii. dad played! and once he stopped trying to play it like a real guitar he was pretty good. i'm actually better at it than the brother! i can play songs on medium, and he can't! i'm awesome!
ok, i need to finish unpacking all my stuff... laundry...

messing around
first things first...
hair sticking out... needs to be washed...
I LOST MY MIND and explored what exactly picnik is...
these are the results... and they look pretty cool, i must say. i only took pics that had me in them, and i just made them look artsy not cutesy and dumb...

anyway, i really need to go to bed. i'll give some actually relavent information about my life when i'm awake again. but i did have a nice long and entertaining conversation with shelley on facebook today. it was really nice.

so, this is just to say i've taken the pic, as i'll be doing fun things later...
ETA
so, adventure to barnes and noble today. took the bus with angela and nathan. ate lunch at panera, and i had a FUCKING DELICIOUS bread bowl soup thing with cheddar broccoli. sooooo tasty. i got ces her gift, and i got fala's gift, and i got a book for myself. a giant one. that was $27.98 and was super discounted to $7. AND I WANTED IT! so i got it. we went to target and we went home.
and i got one of my 4 papers for my self-portrait done! the head and upper chest! and there were some sexy clavicles there.

sooo
i was chewing gum...i got kinda started on the giant self-portrait. i'm not gonna do the whole tearing it up thing cuz, during class discussion, it was brought up that would make it look surgical, i guess. and i wanted it to be smooth and perfect. so i'll be embroidering a background instead. oh god, sooooo much work! the final will be 22.75 x 66.5 inches, meaning the figure on it will be a little under lifesize. so far i've taken all my reference pics and started gridding the final paper. oh so much work ahead of me...
i've actually started my unit 3 paper. all of a paragraph and a sentence, but a start. yay...
yay! my ADD test is tomorrow! finally!! so happy that it's finally gotten to that point. i'll have time right after FI to get back to the dorm and put some stuff down and get my checkbook and go catch the bus. i can't wait to get this over with...
oh, and progress pics are over on the art blog....
as a random side note, jolt gum really does get me energized and a bit focused. which is great! meds in gum form!

i'm bad at this...
i've decided/realized that it'll be easier to write the eleciton paper than it will be to write the unit 3 paper. it has to do with the amount of research and where it's coming from. simply, it's easier to find information on the environmental issues in this election than on cliques in other countries. unfortunately...
oh, i've gotten my last projects for both of my studio classes: a stop-animation in time and a larger than life size self portrait [conceptual or realistic] for surface. and i know what i'm doing for both as well. i'm taking parts of bodies that can look like faces:
,
,
and making conversations and stuff for the stop animation. and for the self portrait i'm taking it upon myself to do a life size detailed pencil drawing in me in my underwear [and i'll actually look at myself, rather than just assuming like always], then tearing the drawings into medium pieces, sewing those back together and embroidering some sort of background. it's going to be intense. i'm going to try to get as much of the drawing done as possible before break so i can go get thread and embroidery floss when i'm home. oh god, so intense!
