Chh ch ch changes!
I decided an update would be good about now for those of you who are curious what I'm up to right now.. Not much actually. I have a weird ache in my side that hasn't gone away for 2 days. I haven't done much arting for the last few days. But I'm rearing to go for it!
I changed shifts at work so now I'll be working 10pm-6am... commonly known as 'graveyards.' If you should ask what action would warrant this punishment, rest assured I went myself. I chose to go. I thought perhaps I could get my elusive morning/afternoon upper classes AND see my Grandma more during the week. I didn't quite count on the adjustment period, but there will be one. Yesterday I stayed up till 6am today so I could sleep and be into my new schedule. I woke up about 3 times. Sleeping in the afternoon is hard. I may have to buy knock out curtains. I didn't think it'd be that hard since I usually don't have issues sleeping even in the afternoon. Maybe I'll have to stay up in the mornings and sleep the evenings till work. I can't decide. I feel kinda excited to change things up since I've been on the same shift 3 years now. I'm also nervous and I think I will miss the shift I worked with + the kids I work with. It was a struggle to have them open their minds for different ideas, but I was almost getting there. I hope I don't regret the change because I don't think I could make it back that easily since no one on my shift moves..
My grandma was in a wheelchair last time I saw her. She said her chemo made her weak, but she still tries to walk, so I'm definitely glad for that. I can't wait to get adjusted to my schedule so I can pop down there and see her ( totally help out and all)!
For my birthday I recieved a tablet pc!! It's refurbished, but it has a problem with the pen. I've been wrangling with HP support since the 15th of this month. Unfortunately if I hear they didn't send the pen yet again on Monday, I'll totally have to send the computer back. It's unfortunate because it works decently besides the pen thing and it's nice and light and small. I was so lucky >.< Even refurbished!! I don't care!! I just want to use it for art already!
Oh yah school just ended and we get one week off before we start again. I am taking advanced illustration.. My heart is lifted at the thought of doing art.. Ugh but all the advertising and design stuff looks like a mountain of BLAH. I seriously don't design well even after all this time. One teacher said I was being negative, but I said I was being honest. I really want to do illustration not design. ( I know there is some designing to a picture, but even that is rocky at best).
My job search in asia has stalled a bit. I don't know if I want to look for anything over there due to my grams being sick and stuff. My best friend said I need to do things for myself too and not give up. She said, knowing my grandmother she'd want me to go and do stuff like this. Not sure if that's so true. I'll have to think about it. A year is a long commitment though I know I'd totally love it. Especially hitting up Japan and seeing my aunt all the time. She wants me to lose weight, but she feeds me too well LOL. She just says I could not eat it all. I look at her like she's crazy.
Anyways that's what's happening. I should start back into art again fairly soon. I have a few things yet to complete. ugh I want to play WOW LOL. Terrible I know! I'm totally broke >.<
Also you can send me a note if you miss me
