Current mood: bored

so, i went ahead and made a facebook: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1153297600

i don't think i'll be using it very often though, it seems kinda boring...and i'm just not good at networking type sites.
i'm too shy/lazy when it comes to inviting friends.
:B

Once again I have wasted a good 30 minutes of my life changing my myspace layout...why do I even bother? I barely even use myspace...

oh well.

So yeah, quick up-date on my life:
I'm still in school, and doing well.
I'm taking mostly art classes: drawing II, design II, and digital photography I.
as well as my last semester of germen (I can't wait till I never have to use this mother fuckin language again). They are all going well, but I still can't wait till I'm done with craven (myschool), so I can transfer and move on with my life.
I've been working down town at the old theater as a set designer/painter. It's for a show called 'Into the Woods Jr'. The 'Jr' means is performed by kids…the whole thing is really cute and…stuff. (Aren't I gifted with words?). No money, just for credit in my drawing II class. The set looks amazing, I'll post pictures of it soon (for reallys:B).

Anyway, my class finished that project on Tuesday after a good 3 weeks of hard work. I'm definitely expecting a good grade.

I feel I should write something about January, but I'm kind of avoiding it on account of not be sure what really happened in January. The whole month just seems like a blur to me now.

You see, it starts like this:

On new years day I hooked up with this guy that I barely knew. And I'm really not sure why, or if I even liked him before we went out. All I know is that next time I have a boy friend I'm going to be a little more careful.

Now I'm not saying he treated my wrong. It's just that we weren't right for each other, and we barely had anything in common. He's a math/computer geek, and I'm an artsyfartsy/bookworm/nerd-thing.

Wrong match from the beginning.

That and we never had time for each other. I'm going to school full-time/swimming competitively/working 20+ a-week (still at the YMCA btw), and he's going to school part time / working 50+hours at two jobs. Plus we're both the lazy type, and weren't willing to commit to anything serious. So we called it off (does this make any sense?).

But anyway, it was fun while it lasted.
and we're still friends and that's what's important, right?

…Neee-way, I learned something important: having a boy friend is hard, especially if you're socially awkward to begin with.

Nehhh, done with that. Feels great to get it off my chest.

IN OTHER NEWS:



i'm falling in love with everything this band creates..

also, i'm going to start posting my scraps to my live journal.

crashhhh

Current mood: crappy

our family computer(thedesktop) died yesterday; ; we think it was the hard drive.
i'm on my laptop right now; but all my art, art programs, music, pictures, favorites, writing pieces, etc. were on that computer...i'm so sad= =
all those pictures i've been working on for so long are gone. all those wasted hours. hours i could of spent doing something else...like home work, or reading, or being with friends...
you see, don't just work on one picture at-a-time. i'm too ADD for that, so i work on up to 10 pics at a time, or more. thats why it takes me so long to get things finished. and even when i finish pictures, i don't always submit them because i don't like them or i want to submit them with something better looking..i'm such an idiot.

sighhhh, oh well. maybe this is a sign that i need to work on other things, newer things...
a fresh start....

quit

i quit my lifeguarding job last thursday. i told her(myboss) i needed more time for homework.
the truth is that i just freaking hate lifeguarding with an undying passion. that job is so mind numbing it drives me up the walls. every time i have to sit and watch a fucking 180-year-old water aerobics class set to music from the 30's i cringe and twitch, imagining myself jumping out of the horrendously uncomfortable lifeguard chair and putting the poor old bastards out of they're painful arthritis caused misery (that's normal right?).
i've been life guarding for 3 years now, it's time for a change.

i still hope to be on the swim team, even though it's not the same team without regina (our coach who was fired for no real reason).


i need a new layout...this one with the stars and moons is old...

for you people<3

homework

OH GOD I HAVE SOMUCH HOMEWORK AND I JUST DON'T WANT TO DO IT. WHYYYY
i really don't have that much...i'm just really lazy so it seems like a lot...

i just want to be lazy and draw for the rest of my life, is that too much to ask?!

WAAHHT oT

updateonmylife

alright! summer vacation is officially over for me!
i'm ready for school! i'm so exited about the new school year. i cant wait to get it started.
just a few more hours...

so, about this summer:

i worked as a YMCA summer counselor for the first month, but after awhile i got kind of sick of all the boll...it was pretty much the same as the last couple of summers i worked there. except this year my boss was fired (for no real reason, other then the new ceo is a jackass), she was pretty much the whole reason i was working there, and with here gone the program was going to crap.
so i want back to life guarding for what was left of the summer. friday was my last day, i would work early in the morning before it would get to busy.

the summer season swim team went over pretty well. i didn't really improve in my freestyle events, but i did improve a lot in both my backstroke and fly. so that was good.

unfortunately, the same guy that fired my boss from the day camp fired our swim couch. why? he wont tell us. but basically everyone on the team was crushed, and now the team is probably going to be split up.

i don't even know if i'll be going back to work for the Y, it's such a joke...
i'm thinking of applying for a job at books-a-million.

so yeah...that was my summer..

oh! and the online class i tried to take this summer never worked out (not enough time...), so i withdrew. but the teacher never got the withdrawal, so he FAILED ME! can you believe that?!
so we got that all fixed, thank God we kept a copy of the withdrawal paper work. they removed the F from my grade. i still cant believe they let that happen though, how ass-backwards is this small hick-ass town?

...yeah, back to school for me tomorrow! just a few more classes and i'll b done with this town!
<3

ps, i'm offering commissions, you can read about the details here: http://speckledji.deviantart.com/journal/13956219/

agghhhhhhhh

agghhhhhhhh,,,,,my arms hurt.
tonight regina(our swim couch) made us do a lactate set…for those of you who don’t know what a lactate set is, let me explain:

we swim 20 one-hundreds, in between each one hundred we do 10 push ups (this is the first lactate set of the season, every one we do she’ll add more push ups), then she flips a coin, if it’s head we’d sprint the hundred, if it’s tales we’d swim it at 85% (best stroke without sprinting or dieing) on 1:15. it’s a type of test set. the point is to test how much progress we’ve made since the season started (about a month ago). if we die during the set it means we’re out of shape, if we make it, it means she needs to give us harder practices.

so, anyway, none of us died. this means on monday she’s going to kill us….we need it though. we have a meet in a few weeks and i still don’t feel in shape yet. i mean, yeah i survived the set holding the same pace, but I felt stiff and sluggish the whole time. I HATE THAT FEELING. It’s like i’m trying my hardest to go my fastest, my stroke has the best rhythm, but i don’t feel like i’m going anywhere…and it hurts!

oh well, at least my arm, leg, and back muscles are getting hard again…it’s so embarrassing having to wear a racing suit 2 sizes too small at a meet and having every thing stick out9 9…

yeah…

summer day camp starts on the 11th. This year i have the 9-year-olds, should be fun. i can’t wait to get out of life guarding, the pool has been packed lately…stupid parents can’t even watch their own children. GOD! WOULD IT KILL THEM TO TELL THEIR FLIPP’IN KIDS TO STOP RUNNING ON DECK!?

pshhhhhh…parents…
