Ramble post
Wow. I get busy and my internet keeping-up-with-ness sucks.
I'm graduating in December. My senior art exhibit is currently up; pictures might happen when I a) remember to take them and b) trouble myself to upload and post them. Seriously, I'm probably doing it wrong because I'm perceiving it as a massive pain in the ass to get it all hosted and shit. I have five oil paintings, three sculptures, and three ceramic pieces on display, which was probably greedy of me, but there was only one other 3D artist in the show.
I'm slowly figuring out the socializing-in-meatspace thing; I have classmates that I talk to now, and no sooner has that happened than I'm fucking leaving. Really want another semester of ceramics, at least. I'm focusing on being a little more outgoing, and contemplating joining Facebook, because that seems to be something everyone uses to socialize, and it's a way of socializing I'm familiar with, and I really feel like I'm a staying-put rock in the middle of a fast-flowing river; it all flows past me. At least a couple classmates kayak, and some others mountain-bike, the former being something I've tried and really like, and the latter being something I'd like to try. Making meatspace friends who do this seems like a good way to go about it.
I wonder if any of them go rock-climbing.
I'm gonna lose all my studio space. I also need to figure out a bit of discipline so I don't just stop doing everything.
Anybody got any advice? Facebook, self-discipline, socializing, adjusting to not going to school anymore?
