Hmmm.. revival?
I'm thinking about reviving this journal, mostly because my myspace is more of an art-centered thing instead of a day-to-day one.
So right now I'm super stressed because of this art project. The subject matter is hard enough - cubism. But the concept I have behind it is personally distressing, which is a friend who killed himself last year. My prof is really excited about seeing my piece, after telling her the entire idea and backstory behind it. But I can't work on it unless I have a certain plug-in for photoshop that I get today. ;.;
I was reading about procrastination. Turns out it's not from laziness (usually), but from perfectionism. Which... sound more like my case. I really have a problem with art procrastination, or even finishing a piece. But there's a lot of other stuff too, so I'm thinking of getting one of those self-help books. >.> (never thought i'd see the day...)
I have a few other projects I have to do for other classes too. Japanese 401 is killing me. I mean, I understand everything but it's still a lot of work. I'm glad I didn't go anywhere for spring break b/c I've been sooo busy with this shit.
At least I've been getting support from some friends about going to Mexico this summer (yay natchan and alisha). I still haven't told my family that I'm going... but it's more b/c I don't want my mom to know about the money I got from my settlement. I think I should just come clean about it, but I'm gonna raise hell if she starts trying to make me pay for the entire cost of my plane tickets. It's not like she helps out financially with much already, that's usually covered by my grandparents. At least she can keep helping with the plane tickets.
I've had an extremely stressful year and a half, like people wouldn't even believe. In fact, I barely believe it. So I'm taking this trip to meet up with an awesome person, see some awesome stuff, and just bask in the awesomeness of it all. In a way, it's like a 自分探し。 It's not like I usually have the money to do this anyway, so I'm jumping at the opportunity.
Meh, I'm gonna go read some cheesy romance stories to get my mind off things.
