I've been meaning to update, but there's not much to update on, really. I've been in school. Trying to stay on top of things. Trying to take care of the important things and hoping that the less important things can maintain themselves.

Been working on my Halloween costume, but I'm not even really sure what we're doing for Halloween. I'd really like to do something, but. Who knows.

Goals for the rest of the year:

-Quit biting my fingernails : Day 58. The urge is mostly gone, but I've gotten bad about picking at my fingernails instead of biting them. For about 2 weeks I had no nails because of picking at them and from them peeling off.

-Draw more : Absolutely loving Drawing I. I used to hate still life drawings, but I've really grown to love them. Class may be 2.5 hours long and all still life drawing, but Takahashi approaches it in a really easy going no-pressure atmosphere.

-Get a job : No real job, but I'm going to be selling paintings and etc at some arts festival on October 3rd.

-Make more friends : Making myself hang out with some of the people I met over the Summer. Met some pretty decent people in the art department, and girl crushing on a few others. It's nice to get to know some new people.

Peas...

Got a thing from Kurt/Haley to hold all my tchochkes. I thought I had more than this, but I guess not.

Went to Walmart and just had to get the peas in a pod.

Goals for August:

-Quit biting my fingernails : Day 14 and I haven't bitten off a nail, yet. My fingernails look like crap, though... They're all different lengths and shapes and I keep getting paint and dirt under my nails.

-Draw more : Haven't really drawn much. But! I have been painting.

-Take more photos : Uhhhhh yeah. Photos. Forgot about those, already. I'd like to make a "ourbedrooms" livejournal post at some point, but I think I'm going to wait until we paint my room. ( OurBedrooms Community ) + ( SaucyDwellings Community )

-Get a job : Still no job. However, I have picked up a cleaning job on the 27-28th this month for $100 with Kat. It's a starting point. I'm also looking into purchasing the supplies to start mass-producing car portraits for people. Figure it'd be an easy way to make some money.

-Make more friends : Ehhhhh. Working on it. Revisiting some old friends. It feels good to see some old faces and just hang out. I'm looking forward to my classes though; I might meet some cool people in my courses.
