Classes started again three days ago. Since that day it's been raining straight, all day every day. There are a lot of ditches around campus for water to run through, and fall off of. If my camera was water proof I would of taken some really nice images. I was tempted to take it out and snap some shots regardless, but the rain was a bit too hard. All those deep green colors, the sound of the wind in the trees. It's awesome...It's been kind of cold too, it's been in the mid 60's. A lot different than what it was just last week. The weather is diving head first into Autumn, and I like it.

Up to this point I've had five classes out of my six. Tomorrow I have the 6th one. It's only on Fridays. Only three days in and I've been loaded up with a a bunch of homework. I don't even have my textbooks yet, I'll have to go and pick them up on Saturday after work. Those lines are to ridiculous to stand in during regular class time. Even during break between classes too many people. I don't have that sort of patience.

Besides having a bunch of homework I am going to try and juggle personal work too. I finished my most recent piece of work. It was a digital painting of Korean actress/model Park Min-Young. She's really pretty, and it was fun to do.

I have a few others ideas for portraits that I want to sketch out. We'll see what happens.
Until next time.

School is mere days away. Class starts on Tuesday. Aside from working, I've spent these last free days drawing, and practicing my illustrations.
I've got a few nice drawings finished. I'm really happy with how my drawing has been flowing so smoothly these past weeks.
Best to prepare for class early so when I start with my assignments I'll be able to ease into them with less difficulty. I haven't watched any anime online, or any Netflix for that matter. I've been listening to lots of new music instead. Oh and I have been playing the Metal Gear Series again.
I completed Metal Gear Solid, and I started playing Metal Gear Solid 2. Playing them again reminded me how truly amazing they are. I always knew they were awesome, but playing them is such a memorable experience.
Just a quick update, not much else to say. Not sure when I'll blog again. I tend to forget about it when school begins.
Until next time.

A month since my last entry and nothing relatively new to blog about. It's true, I haven't done much that is relevant in these past few weeks..
Ohh yipe, what a nice positive introduction ehh? *nudge-nudge* (sarcasm)

Yah I bet I set it up perfectly, to entice you to keep reading hmm? ...Wait, I didn't? ...what.... *awkward silence...*

Why is silence awkward again?

ANYWAY, whoa total random opening. Guess it just one of those days, it's probably for the best that I don't make a habit out of it?

Summer classes have concluded, and I am just waiting for my final grade. Should be posted soon. It was a United States History class. At first I was sort of hesitant as to how the class would be conducted, but thankfully it wasn't a snoozefest. *cough* I actually learned some invaluable information, and it sort of rekindled my interest in US History and politics. (gross)

School will be starting up again in a few weeks, and I have been spending my time drawing and watching all sorts of stuff on Netflix.

I was finally able to see This Ugly Yet Beautiful World in it's entirety. It was short, and the story was slow moving. Then all of a sudden it all boils over in the last three episodes. It was definitely rushed. It didn't meet the expectations I had of it, but it's well worth watching at least once. I recently found Baccano! on there. My friend used to collect the DVD's as they were being released so I've seen most of the series. Now it's on there I mind as well start from the beginning since I forgot most of it anyhow. I also started watching Ga-Rei Zero. Never heard of this anime before, I started watching it completely spontaneously. It's good, but kind of weird...Well maybe weird isn't the right word? I'm not sure...

Ao No Exorcist is looking pretty interesting also.

Guess that's all for now. Time to go indulge my eyes on some pretty shinies. (don't ask)

Yo! It's been a bit since I've been on here. Summer vacation has been going nice and slow. Though it is coming down to the last month, I am willing to bet that August is going to fly by.

This weekend I went to a wedding. My mom got married. Her first time. They weren't together very long before they decided to make it official. I am still curious as to why it all moved so fast, but this is the first time that anyone ever proposed to her, so I hope she didn't get over excited and jump the gun, but who knows, only time will tell. It was so damn humid on Friday when we were running around trying to prepare. The temperature topped off at 104 degrees F, or 40 C ....With the heat index it was miserable. But there was a hot breeze so it stirred up the temp.

In the few weeks since my last entry I was finally able to create a new artwork! And right now I have two solid pieces in production. I haven't worked on either one of them since some time mid-last week, but they are there and I will be doing more on them later on this week when my studies for school end on Wednesday. I have been finding out how amazing Netflix is. There is way more movies on there than I thought. I have been watching a lot of foreign films, predominantly Korean and Chinese ones. I've only ever seen one Korean film before (that I am aware of) which I absolutely loved, called 3-Iron and I saw another about 2 weeks ago, called Ajusshi (Ajeossi) or Man From Nowhere in the US. It is so awesome, I watched it on Netflix a good 5-6 times before I decided that I had to have it! I got it on Blu-Ray for real cheap on ebay. I have been also watching some Chinese martial arts films, and I watched a Korean thriller, and a Japanese horror. There is a lot of stuff I want to watch on there, it's tough keeping track of it all.

Oh yah, I had to play manager at my job two weeks ago. The boss was on vacation and I had to fill in as her replacement in the meantime. She was really pleased with how I did. She told her boss how well I did, and he gave me a gift card. (nice!)

I'm not looking forward to the end of August, she has two weeks off.... -___-"

heh, guess that's all for now.

So it's pretty humid outside. The air is full of moisture. I hate this muggy weather that we get day in and out. It was raining pretty hard when I was at work, it thundered for a good hour and a half. The power went out for a moment, but it came back on quick... Pity I didn't get to see any of the storm. The rain is inspiring to me.

I don't have much new to add, I finished one of my summer classes. It was only a month. Now I only have a History class one day a week. It's a very interesting class. US History from 1877 to Present. Aside from working full time I haven't done anything constructive. I mostly laze around the house in a complete stupor. Since summer break let out I have been in an artistic slump...I started a painting ages ago that I never finished, I drew random doodles that didn't amount to anything either than just that. For some reason my art has been blocked, and I don't know why. The other day I tried to draw something seriously, and I am still looking at it now trying to decide what to do with it. I don't even know if I like it or not. Right now I have somewhat of a cohesive image sketched out and I am attempting at inking it. I don't know if this piece has a life. It might make it into photoshop, and I might color it. I stare at the screen and look at the same drawing magazines but nothing remotely creative is generated.

I feel like I am in such an artistic dump, I feel pretty ashamed at myself actually.

I better get something coherent drawn before the summer ends though. If not I would have wasted loads of time to spend indulging my artist's desires...Come this fall, my school schedule is huge, and I won't have time to do anything other than school and work.

But yet, I sit here, and think of that, and nothing comes to mind.
Ah well.

It's officially summer now.Yesterday was the summer solstice. The Earth passed the sun on the elliptical orbit, moving southwards. Changing the sun to hit directly at the northern hemisphere... No I didn't google that, thanks to Astronomy 101 for that information. That was such an interesting class.

Anyways I don't have much of anything new to say. I've spent most of my days so far shifting between work, and homework. When I am not doing the latter I am watching awesome youtubers. I've become quite the fanboy of youtube bloggers as of late. I've always watched a select few, but I've seen several more now.

Take a look at this music vid, it's so awesomely funny:



Those guys are so badass. First time I saw it I was like "okay, that's cool" the more I watch it I am loving it and laughing my ass off more and more.
Nigahiga and Kevjumba. Look em up on youtube. You won't be disappointed.
That's it for now.

There is an awesome thunderstorm outside. Lots of lightning, high wind, and pouring rain, perfect conditions for a blog entry...

I started school on Tuesday. The classes are ok, more on the boring side. Probably because they aren't Art classes, they are other classes that I have to take that I have been putting off repeatedly...Well one is, should I say, was. Due to lack of sign ups, it was cancelled. Therefore I needed to take another class to fill in the slot that I missed. Now I have to add that cancelled class to my fall semester and have even more classes to take... ugh... -_-"

Well I will be done in the fall, and then I'll be transferring next spring.

I got inFamous on the PS Network. Due to the server being down so long, them put up some free full games for download. One was inFamous so I got it. I've always wanted to play it since I've first seen it... That more or less all I've been doing lately. Looking aimlessly on the computer watching vids and wasting time. I haven't drawn a damn thing since school let out. I've been slacking big time...

I still have all of summer to be productive....
