Why the heck did I agree to start taking Art Institute classes before I move? I'm getting sick of these online classes...

Oh well, only two and a half weeks before I get a month or so off.

Since I haven't learned enough Maya to make my 3D AMV yet, I've finally started working on the other video I mentioned in passing several months ago (http://kiiiiiiiitsuner.livejournal.com/38806.html) for my final project in my Design class. Unfortunately the project has to stay secret ( Read more... )

I don't get to register for spring classes at Sierra until next Friday, but it looks like two of the classes I need have only two spaces left. If they fill up before I have a chance to register, then I'll be pretty much screwed out of a semester. There's a chance I could add the classes once the semester starts, I guess, but lately that's been ( Read more... )

I met with my counselor at Sierra today, and apparently I'm only a credit and a half of P.E. away from getting an A.A., and I only need another two classes after this coming semester to get an associate in Multimedia Design too. So now I've basically got two main choices of what to do with this ( Read more... )

After a few weeks (maybe months) of being annoyed by my malfunctioning sound card, I finally got a fresh one installed! It was refusing to play any sound at all for a while, but my dad got it working somehow. It's such a relief to be able to hear all the sounds I'm supposed to hear ( Read more... )

Last weekend, I happened to catch American Psycho 2 on TV. It was surprisingly awesome. I haven't seen or read the previous story yet, but it was more of a spin off than an actual sequel. Mila Kunis plays intense so well. Another thing I liked about it was that while she murdered loads of people, there was hardly any gore at all. I'm sure some ( Read more... )

How very sneaky of them. Illinois Institute of Art sent me another envelope of stuff to send them, and hiding in the back of the pile I found a letter what says I've been accepted to attend their school!

Tomorrow is the last day of summer drawing class up in Grass Valley. Hard to believe the end is here, but I'm not complaining. What's especially nice is that, if I added the numbers up right, I'm completely safe from failing the class (which was a rather large worry for me), and I should have enough points gathered to secure at least a B. I'm not ( Read more... )

Just gonna toss something in here real quick to keep my diagonal running, then I'm taking a nap. I've taken to completely disconnecting my computer to focus easier, and so far it's working. Last night I finished my symbolic self-portrait, and the teacher actually really liked it. Not that it was a particularly complicated drawing; it was just a ( Read more... )

Next week is the last week of drawing class, so this weekend is gonna be major catch-up time. Hopefully my finished drawings turn out as well as my sketches, because apparently the teacher really liked my sketchbook, especially my wheel of Gouda.

We started reading Stardust in English class today, accompanied (for today, at least) by the ( Read more... )
