it's officially the end of my third week in art school. things are going really well so far. the amount of homework i have to do seems rather insane at times but i get through it. i've been having a lot of fun with the whole thing. it feels like a second chance at living. and i mean really living, not just existing. although, the...

decided to come back to the fold after a brief intermission.

classes start back tomorrow. a little nervous, but excited at the same time. i'm gonna be in class with a bunch of freshman that are almost half my age, so that's gonna be a little weird. i am looking forward to finally moving into a happier part of my life, working toward finally being...

p.s. guess who got his acceptance letter today??? this guy!!

yes!! had a wonderfully creative weekend. went down home to little ol' columbia, nc to attend an altered book workshop. quite a few talented artists were there doing there own thing. nothing was structured so it was more like a free-for-all open studio kind of thing. all the finished pieces will be placed in an exhibit that starts this weekend. i ended up finishing one...

brrr...just got back from a chilly afternoon walk. the whole way down to the park the wind was blowing right in my face making my ears feel like little icicles on the side of my head. thankfully i was wearing my hoodie and could cover up for the return trip.

last night's movie watching was fun. had a couple friends over and we watched 'the...

tonight was a very good night at the pub. any night that culminates with the birthday for a guy named thor is bound to be good. sat around and chatted with a couple of the bartenders. it was good to talk to them on the other side of the bar for once. had a few drinks with a rather stunning, well endowed red head, but...

last nights beer tasting went well, though it would have been better if it had only been about 10 degrees warmer. found a couple new beers to drink (new to me anyway). Abita Amber and Dixie Dark Voodoo Lager. Good stuff.

tonight i went out with some friends to the new korean bbq restaurant that opened up recently. the selection of food is a little...

feeling a bit better. my sinuses are finally clearing up so i can somewhat breathe again. looking forward to the next couple days: beer tasting tomorrow, sculpture exhibit and reception downtown, and movie night with friends on saturday. it's nice to actually look forward to things again. better yet, it's nice to actually have things to do again.
