Man I'm so tired.
Last night was artaWEARness at school. Good times. Alexandra, Michelle and I went back to my place after class friday morning to get ready. We figured people we dressing up so we didn't want to get left out. I did this amazing make-up on everyone. Including Dave, which was unexpected but great. He get there and only Holly is dressed up. Figures.
It was alright, we posed for pictures a lot, and all my friends were like, "Are you nervous?" and it didn't occur to me they thought I was IN the show. Oh well.
Afterwards we just went back to my house, picked up Alex, and played "life". I won! Woohoo at 1.67 million. I rock at life. Well.. the board game anyways.
So they didn't leave until about 4:30 am because we ended up talking about just random stuff afterwards. So I woke up at about 3pm today, tired and sounding drunk. I'm still tired and its like 6 o'clock. I doubt ill get anything done today. So much for going to school to get more work done. I'll go Monday.
I'd just like to mention I miss some people
Lydia
Dustin
Natalie
Trina
Vanessa
Patrick
Mike r.
I've been thinking about these folks a lot. Or at least the good ol days. I don't know the difference.

So much has happened
But you don't get to hear about it! Mwa ha ha!
Sorry, but there is honestly way to much to write about in a tiny lil blog such as this!
As for recent events. I got my neck project for one of my classes done, and I will be handing it in on time for once! I am slowly catching up! Yipee!
But I better be. I've been at school all night after class, and on weekends trying to catch up. I took the night of Metalmorphasis off, St. Patrick's Day, and finally, last night.
My friend Danielle took me to this dinner theater with our other friend Alex. We had a good time, and they even lied and told the cast it was my birthday so I had to go on stage and embarrass the shit out of myself doing this birthday dance. I went along with it, thinking no one would know who I was. Plus there was this really hot girl dancing beside me who was joking about trying not to fall out of her dress. I hope I didn't stare toooo much. But today at school I ran into 3 people that I knew that were there, and apparently I know half the people that work there and I didn't even know it. So everyone and their mom saw me shake my booty on stage.
By the way I got an 80% on my art history mid term. Just thought I would throw that little factoid in.
OH! My birthday is April 12th. Just so ya know. I am going to Celtic night because it lies on a Thursday and so does the B-Day. Then the Saturday after I am hosting a sex toy party. It has always been my new years resolution to host one of those, and finally I am! Yay! No boys allowed! WOO!
Anyways, that was a quicky from happy. Are you feeling satisfied? No? Don't worry I'll go long and slow on you guys later... mwa ha ha!

Taking a couple days off
With the Metal Department's party last night, and St.Patrick's Day tomorrow. I've decided to take Friday night off as well. Why not, I've had a lot going on, and it is about time I took some time off to have fun, and not worry about ... stuff.
I took some pics from the "Tarts and Vicars" theme Metalmorphasis party at school.
I'll write about it more later, I'm just super tired right now and I'm tempted to hit the hay early and read a book.
Well! Go check out my flickr account to see the photos! Cheers!

A damn good day
Today was one of the best days I have had in a long ass time. I had my art history midterm exam, which I have been dreading since I got back from my stint in bed. I studied my ass off this week, only to be rewarded with a relatively easy exam. I wrote pages! There was one question I miss though because it was on material I missed on one of my sick days. Oh well. I still passed, which is what is important.
After that, I went to my studio to try and get some of my older jewelry projects finished, and I discovered a quick way to finish off one of them. Instead of soldering again, which could have caused it to melt - all I have to do is cut some extra bits off. Trust me, this is a good thing.
Then I met up with my friend Tessa and Kate, and we headed down to the mall to pick out outfits for the jewelry department's party tomorrow night. Tarts and Vicars is the theme - just GUESS what I'm going as. I'll take pictures if I can.
For lunch I had OPA, and a tiny dip cone from DQ. It was tasty.
After the mall we hit Value village, and I actually found some awesome stuff! For like 10 bucks I got an awesome "save a horse, ride a cowboy" t-shirt, some sterling silver earrings, and some genuine stained glass earrings. Good shit. Worth more then 10 bucks, I'll tell ya that much. I love knowing how much is worth some times.
Then we hit my FAVORITE store, Adam and eve's exotic boutique! Best sex store eva! Another friend of our works there, and is trying to get me the inside track on getting a job there. OMG - that would be the BEST job ever - and totally perfect for me.
After that Tessa and I headed back to my place to work on our art history term papers, and my mom made us steak, sweet potato, mashed potatoes, asparagus, and garlic mushrooms. So f'ing good! So damn tasty. Anyways, today was awesome! Yay!
See I told you not all my entries would be depressing.

Musing From a Bi-Polar Art Student
So when you live in Calgary, you sometimes forget that the weather can be nice. I got up this morning, after a fitful dream full of being trapped in a 6 by 6 room for the rest of my life, so sun shine and birds singing. First birds I heard singing this year in fact.
I walk my butt to the corner store by my place, and decide to check the 2 month old lotto ticket I had sitting in my wallet. I won $10.00.
I actually skipped to the bus stop listening to the new Tenacious D album I just got. The bus ride was short, and was sans crazies.
I got to school and got all the tools I needed made for tomorrow done, and looking HAWT. I mean Brett (a guy in my class) was all jealous because the tools I made were not only pretty but difficult to make as well. My friends Danielle and Alex were not having such a good day. I felt bad because normally they are the ones cheering my ass up. But a little pep talk, a snickers bar later, and things were looking up. I basically was singing and dancing my way out of school. It started snowing again.
I get home, dinner is made! So good. I have to tell you, coming home after 10 hours of smashing the shit out of metal you really don't feel like making yourself food. So when it is waiting for you when you walk in the door, it tastes even better.
I realized life isn't always so bad, you just have to have that one sunny day that puts things into perspective. It occurred to me that I felt this dark and angry at this exact time last year, and the year before that. I think for art students, or perhaps all students, it is just part of life. You just have to know what is going on, take a breath, and hold on until it is all over.
Just take solace in your friends, and try and remember it will get better.

A snowball is fucking correct!
So one grupie leaves... and now another?
What the fuck is going on?
(this is more grupthink drama btw)
Rai, Enfonce-le-toi dans le cul!
Va te la mettre!
Pompous Jackass!
Okay.
So I'm stressed, and already having a stressful week, and grupthink is my escape from that. And having such drama happen, and good friends say goodbye is really tough. I think it is affecting me more then I want it to. More then I should let it. But I am a fragile beast what can I say?

Cross Roads and Other Conundrums
As I start this new chapter in my life of creating a "proper" blog, I find I am at a cross roads with many aspects of my life.
1) Money - I have none of it. I recently confessed to a school chum that for 2 weeks last semester I didn't have money to feed myself. I have never been so scared in my life, and have vowed never to let that happen again.
2) School - I found out I am a total of 5 classes down from declaring my major at school. That fucking blows. I love the girls in my class, and I want to move ahead with them. I love my department, and if I am going to be held back ANOTHER year from it, I may just move on to other things.
3) Health - I got the "C" word recently. If that isn't enough to freak the shit out of you, I don't know what would. What is even scarier is that another good friend of mine has the same thing going on. If I'm lucky we'll get to be roomies at the hospital.
4) Friends - I seem to be gaining some, and loosing others. Terrifying. Why? Because I am a coward thats why. And as much as I want to say that I am an open minded person, willing to let change happen - I am... but only sometimes.
5) Grupthink - The social networking and Q & A site I belong to. Love the people there (for the most part) and I've made wicked relationships there. But I got an e-mail from one of my good friends there telling me they want to leave. Too many people giving them shit. I understand what they mean. Being voted most popular on that site (not tooting my own horn here, it's fucking true), I find I am kept safe from most of the crap that could be thrown at me. But I have to say, when I got that e-mail, my heart sunk in my stomach. I really love this person, and they are a huge reason I still visit this site on a regular basis. Don't get me wrong, I love all of my friends there, but this person is just the triple thick icing on my already sweet cake.
I would beg them to stay, but that would be done for only my own selfish reasons, and unfair to said person. I just hope that we stay in touch. I'd miss them a lot. So does this mean I keep with grupthink? Or do I quit? Decisions, decisions.
6) Looooovvve - Fuck love man. Wait... no fuck ME thats it. No wait.... Yeah I don't know. Birthday number 23 is around the corner, I feel my lack of "relationship" experience is starting to piss me off. I miss the boat a lot. Or I just give up, and don't even go to the pier anymore. I don't know why I expect something to happen. Again - Coward. Enough said.
How honest am I really? I don't even think I know. You know?
Am I ever going to post a real image of myself on the net? Probably not.

Why am I starting something ELSE I have to update?
Because I am a fucking masochist.
On that note, I should mention I will be cursing. And bad mouthing people. And probably bitching about my life.
however
I shall also be talking dirty. Speaking of my love of others, my hobbies, and occasionally, my family.
I will also share with you the humor I find, the stories I find interesting, and whatever random stuff I feel like posting.
If you are here, it means I peaked your interest long enough for you to click the link here, so thank you. Unless you are here to bitch about what I have to say. That is just lame. Get your own blog.
