Wow.  It's been awhile.  If anyone still reads this, you're better off following my tumblr.

This year has been long.

In January, I got my heart ripped out by the second season of Sherlock

In February, I turned 21, but that was not very exciting.  It was my first birthday away from home and I was very homesick

In March, I was officially accepted ( Read more... )

And just like that, my first year at proper Uni is over.  Most of my stuff has already been shipped home and I fly home myself this evening.  I think I made a good choice coming out here.  I think it's helped shape me as a person.  It's definitely different here, but I don't think it's bad different.

I'm glad to be going home.  I miss my parents.  I ( Read more... )

So I haven't forgotten about journal-ing.  I just haven't really had anything of great interest happening.

I'm back home from Uni now.  Yay for winter break!  I got my grades back and I got four As and a B in Printmaking.  I worked my butt off for that B.  It seemed like everyone else in the class could draw better than I can.

I went and saw Sherlock ( Read more... )

( cut for length and spoilers )

College is so very booooooooooooooooooooring at the moment.  My required math class that I could have and should have waived is tedious and easy.  (The first three chapters were on basic math functions (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), fractions, and decimals.)

My required portfolio class is a rehash of the portfolio and resume ( Read more... )

Today was the start of my last quarter at college before I transfer to uni!

So... uh... I just watched Lennon Naked.

I was under the impression it was metaphorical nakedness.  *starts trembling and voice breaks*  Nope.

I don't really care for The Beatles so I didn't really know much about John Lennon.  I still feel like I don't know much about him.  ( Read more... )

FUCK YEAH THE KING'S SPEECH!!!  AND COLIN FIRTH!!!!

So, I just finished watching Exit Through the Gift Shop.  It was really enlightening.

I've always been sort of a passive fan of street art.  It's just as valid an art form as anything else, in my opinion.

I started off kind of leary of Thierry Guetta and his slightly scary sideburns and I kind of hated him by the end of the documentary.  He's an ( Read more... )

I forgot to blog about seeing The King's Speech on Friday!  It was so good!

As an American, I didn't know the story and probably would have never known the story without this film.

SLIGHT SPOILER: I will now take to swearing when I cannot think of a word.  :)

I highly recommend it.  Excellent performances by all.  I really hope Colin Firth gets an ( Read more... )

The Short Version:  Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 = BEST ONE YET!

The Long Version:
It was so good!

Someone got Snape some volumizing shampoo!

I thought Lucuis Malfoy was going to cry when Voldemort snapped Snakey's head off.  He was appropriately scruffy and that was good.

It was so good, I literally can't think of anything specific that ( Read more... )
