Egads. So today's the LAST DAY OF THE SEMESTER for me. Turning in my portfolio and sketchbook for final grading in about four hours. Ye gods and amen.
Have also committed myself to CRAPLOADS of artwork between now and the weekend, and I think that was rather insane of me, all things considered, but there it is. However, this semester's Big Lesson is that Eden, given plenty of free time, will do her damnedest to WASTE said free time. So. No more faffing around for me. I seem to do better with a constant workload and regular schedule.
Am running on zero sleep (what can I say? The last day of my finals seemed like a key opportunity for an all-nighter), but will still attempt to meet all self-imposed artistic deadlines. 'Cause, y'know, this is supposed to be mostly an art journal, yet here I am bitching, once again, without posting anything worthwhile. I solemnly swear on a pack of brand new mechanical pencils that the next post will contain some sort of art dump.
In other news, I have fallen in love (again) with "Falling for the First Time" by the Barenaked Ladies. Granted, I'm the one who thought of the song this evening and went to search for it and proceeded to squee over it, but somehow this is all
wakkawoo's fault.
I'm so cool---too bad I'm a loser
I'm so smart---too bad I can't get anything figured out
I'm so brave---too bad I'm a baby
I'm so fly---that's probably why it
Feels just like I'm falling for the first time
I'm so green, it's really amazing
I'm so clean---too bad I can't get all the dirt off of me
I'm so sane it's driving me crazy
It's so strange, I can't believe it
Feels just like I'm falling for the first time
Anyone perfect must be lying
Anything easy has it's cost
Anyone plain can be lovely
Anyone loved can be lost
What if I lost my direction
What if I lost a sense of time
What if I nurse this infection
Maybe the worst is behind...
