:sob: i’d like :sob: to thank! :sob sob: myself, and, of course, myself(!) :sob: for stickin to it for so long! :sob sob:
because five years later i’m seriously feeling the love from custo-ers dripping out in between the smart-ass taglines and five bajillion screen subs. featured, walled, complimented, and spotlighted. so much so that i’m actually aprehensive about uploading another sub for fear of flooding the site with my mindless photoshops. as well, it’s imperative to geek out for a sec and mention the nice fuzzies that come with getting props from the old-timey folks like c72 and max. i’m swimming in good digitalis right now.
on the flip side of the arty fart, i’m completely bewildered by the reaction to my drawing in arch class today. the teach has never given me a comment, postive or negative, except to show me how to use the adjustable triangle for hatching. aside for one criticism regarding my [tremendously hideous] freehand sketch from the first class session, i really’ve no clue regarding the quality of my work. self-criticism notwithstanding (i’ve got messy line work, smudge problems, and let’s not start on my inability to allocate space division evenly), it was utterly confusing to have my drawing scrutinzed by so many classmates today. did i do something so elementarily wrong that they’re all just having the best internal laugh ever? or was my drawing actually somewhat good? when i look at it, i see really ugly bushes (they lookin like stylized fire ew!) and not enough differentiation between line weights. i’m confussed about it all. it’s not a hard class — i think all i lack is practice — but i’ve seriously not felt so intimidated by a school subject in my entire life. math is difficult for me to understand but i know that i’ll grok it eventually. the same is applicable to chemistery and physics. i don’t feel stupid if i don’t get that stuff right way. for some reason, architecture scares me shitless…to achieve that perfect balance between logic and creativity seems impossible.
also for whatever reason, i’m all fricken social today. had lunch with maggie and angel then hung out for (three!) hours with two new friends geeking out on, among other things, fry’s, video games, skinning, and computers. i’m tired and i still’ve homework to do. but damn was it all some good times from morning till night.
