wow livejournal what?
So i have not posted in like a year or something... stuff has happened. Went to San Fransisco again with Cameron and had an amazing time. Going out there just cemented the idea in my mind that being here in birmingham is like not really being alive. It's like living in a city of zombies, or maybe I am the zombie.... gonna graduate soon (finally) and then find something to do with myself that makes money. I've moved into a nice apartment downtown with cam and it's very cute with all of our stuff in it. Quit smoking 2 weeks ago and it is extremely hard not to smoke but I'm managing to do it. I have been looking for other jobs but the economy is so bad that I am still at the friggin ups store boo (here right now)
All the art I have been making has been very satisfying and looks very good. Book making is awesome and I am one of the best in the class. Painting is boring and I hate it but I still like the stuff I have done in there and everyone eles seems to as well. So art is cool or whatever and also the only thing I see myself caring about for the rest of my life but I know it's not going to pay the rent when even the really nice high end art galleries in bham are going under. I figure once I graduate I'll lay low and work on art while finding a job that gives me money and has health insurance (easier said than done).
My teachers say they want me to try some grad schools cause they say I'm talented enough for it but I am so sick of school that I might do it later in life if I feel like it but right now I am just ready to start building a life... Thing with Cam are great, we are coming up on our two year anniversary and I think the last two years have been really good for both of us. He is so smart and studious I'm kinda waiting for the day he is gonna leave my dumbass but I hate to think about it.
What I am gonna do first when I graduate is find a job and get myself into a situation where I can save up money while desiding what city I want to live in cause this alabama shit has never been and never will be good enough. Hopefully I can just whore my mind and body for a few years and have enough to set up a life somewhere. It's exciting at this point that I am just one math class and an astronomy lab away from being out of school. I just hope the economy picks up and aids me in my escape from this shithole.
