It's so cold outside & I am in love with it. Despite the fact I was called into work today, there is just something crisp about leaving a bookstore into the night air that makes me tingle. It also gave me an excuse to buy a leather jacket today. and drink hot tea outside.
Know what else is nice? Having a weekend that doesn't involve slaving in the art lab till midnight. I love my major but I've never had my weekends sucked away like i have this semester. It's been several weekends in a row since I've actually felt relaxed or relatively cheerful in manner. I hate driving but I catch myself feeling like I should be just out of habit. So I'm trying to remind myself that I like having chill time. This is a rare and fleeting moment and I should be savoring the fact I have nothng to do.
I also can't pull myself away from my new Dell XPS. It's so freaking fast compared to my old computer (known as Clunker) and I've loaded it with a 9 cell lithium battery and a ton of memory and hard drive space. I now have a video card so nice I can finally become an online gamer again without my computer wanting to commit suicide. I installed all my adobe programs today and it hardly took any space. To Clunker it would have been an atomic bomb. Just Beautiful. Only thing that sucks is I can't transfer my music until I get an external hardrive, pretty much 17GB of music took up my old computers space, which is a pretty huge file to transfer.
Christmas is gonna have to come a little earlier. : )
For those that are interested, I'd like to go to a haunted house next week sometime. These two I think sounded the most promising here in Memphis: www.hauntedweb.com
and www.nightshademanor.com.
the more people that come, the more we can grab onto each other haha. So check out those sites and give me some feedback!
Is anyone doing anything exciting for Halloween? I can't decide if I wanna party it up or not. Most of my Halloween party experiences have been horrible and I want to forget them, it would be nice to go to one and actually have a good time.
ah, it feels so nice to type in good ole lj again. Maybe I'll do some artsy things tonight that don't require grading! I'll leave ya with a couple of videos I'm enjoying lately:
This is all of want to listen too. This is where I wanna go.
