Hey eljay. I know that I dismiss you all the time (honestly I've forsaken you and facebook to twitter), much to Krystal's dismay, but I think I want to try to rekindle my love for you.
I finished my second quarter at school and garnered all A's and one B. I'm very very happy about this. It brought my GPA up to an accumulative 3.4 and now I can join the honor society. And not only that, my color theory teacher was so fond of one of my paintings I did of a cardinal that she's going to hang it in the hallway. All in my second quarter. Fuck yeah go Bertny.
The spring quarter starts tomorrow and I'm ready to bust down the door. I've got analysis of form which is going to be drawing naked people for four hours a day. Not too excited for that, but I tried my hand recently at life drawing with shockingly good results. I'm much better than I give myself credit for (god knows I don't have the biggest ego over my work). I've also got language of animation and film which I've heard is just watching cartoons all day and doing fun projects. Math is also expected but I've also heard good things about it. And last I've got 2D animation principles which I believe we start actually animating things. I'm going to shit my pants over it, honestly. I'm scared.
Nesta's in town this week and I'm much too excited about it. We hung out at the fashion square in Scottsdale for a few hours with her new step siblings~*~* They were awkward and not very great at English but idk.
Following that was a rather depressing episode with Lacey about how she feels lazy and useless because she's having trouble finding a job and getting into school. I called my mom for advice but I'm just at a loss on what to do for her. I can't help but be truthfully and annoyingly optimistic about everything, but it just seems like the world will never cut her a break. I feel absolutley guilty going to school when she can't, but I know that she will make it. And while we are both searching for jobs, I understand that there just aren't that many for us to get. But still we carry on looking. I don't think that anybody tries harder than Lacey, and no one deserves more than she does. I just don't know what to do other than be there for her and convene with Krystal over some things.
All I know is that we're trying our best and the world just isn't fair. As usual. But I'm trying to keep the good morale afloat. We went after that to Laser Quest and kicked some ass. I got in fourth place hell yeah. Laser tag is surprisingly a good stress killer.
Oh look the sun is going down. Finally.
We're in the last dregs of spring before the heat strangles us all to death. Today is beautiful but tomorrow is unpredictable.
Ahemhem.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
