An Interesting Day

Well today was mildly interesting. It was day two of waking up not balls tired and actually moving in the morning! Drawing was boring, but I got a shitty motif done and drew a skull :P Then Gina and I spent the noon hour at Target and Michael's and Pei Wei before returning back to Kerrrrrrr. Then Dorothy and I just sort of sat in the room all day. I was playing Sims and she was working on her fabric study, which does look really damn good. I don't start mine until Thursday, but I'm hoping to meet or exceed hers. She said she envies that I work so fast, but I can't tell if she's telling the truth or not because I know how competitive she is. See, I'm not. I'm making art to make me happy. Sure I care that it looks nice, but I'm not striving to make everything perfect and be number one in the class.

Somewhere in the mid afternoon, I drew a picture of Lita in my sketchbook and then practiced what I wanted to do for the mixed media application. I drew her on bristol board, then went over the drawing with light washes of ink. Well they started building up and before I knew it, I pulled out the white paint and had a full blown painting going :P It looks like my eyes on the wall, kind of helter skelter, but somehow works. I'm happy :P Then I picked up the painting I started a few weeks ago of the grey skinned girl and refined the skin and painted hair and eyes. I'm bad at painting now... I forgot how to paint hair my way :P

Then Dylan and Kyle stopped by and after hanging out for a bit, they invited me to Kyle's room to watch Tosh.0. NO ONE EVER INVITES ME ANYWHERE. We had to go to the B tower, and I must say I'm really glad I'm a girl. I've only been in two guy rooms, but I'm learning that they all smell bad and are scarcely decorated. Maybe that's just my inner woman and the fact that I like embellishing and accessorizing, but seriously guys, what's so hard? And what IS that awful smell?!

Came back to my room after and have just been spending the evening to myself. I really like the new shampoo I got, it smells nice :) I braided my hair super tight to see if I can get some sort of cool shape tomorrow. Ugh, design. I don't like the project and I never get any work done because everyone talks in that class. Kim talks too much to me and it's no wonder I don't get anything done. Plus I can never put my phone down... college fail. I dunno, we'll see how that project goes. I might do my graphite/wash technique on that!

Nothing on my mind tonight, just enjoying the time to myself after a very social day.
