[ music | Suddenly I see- KT Tunstall ]

I got in.
I found out Saturday night right before the session. Dad called and said I'd recieved a package with a big pink ribbon that said 'congratulations' on it. I was crying all night.. everybody was congratulating me and hugging me. I've never had so many deep conversations with people lol. I truly have the most wonderful friends.
I'm still in shock. SUCH odds were stacked against me. This is the first time I've ever applied to college. I just can't even believe this is happening. I'm actually going to be recieving the art education I've dreamed about for -years- ..it's so unreal. I know I'm going to have to -bust my ass- to survive, but you know what, I wouldn't dream of disappointing these people, myself, or my friends and family.
Everything has fallen into place, finally. I have everything I've ever wanted and needed right now.
And Shane and I are moving in together.. our own place. I can't even begin to describe how happy that makes me.
It's just amazing. I've never seen my parents so proud of me since 1st grade, when I was getting Honor Roll lol

Anyhow. Helio Sequence is having a show tonight at the Echo.. I'm super stoked. I finally have the option of attending their over 21 shows. I'm driving tonight, so no drinks.. but I will dance my pants off

Little help plz? [01 Oct 2006|05:29pm]
Ok. someone asked for a commission from me on devart. I've never done a commission. I don't know the first thing about charging people money.. i draw for fun :/ So... I said I'd do $15 for a single character sketch and for a colored piece (depending on size) they start at $25. Said person notes me and says she wants two colored images with two characters, and one colored image with one character. I said I'd do it all for $65, and that I'd probably watercolor them and send the originals. I told her to send me refs and she sends me BLACK AND WHITE photos for her characters (her horses irl) and then gives me a long winded desc. of the other character. Now she says she wants all of these as anthros with detailed bgs... and the works. Not to mention she lives very very far and because I know nothing of commissions and or shipping costs I can't afford to do shipping.. I'd only be making like $40 for three 9x12 fully watercolored pieces.
I would really appreciate any insight... anything I can tell this girl? She's commissioned some really famous DA people.. and I don't want to be judgemental or take advantage of the situation, but I know she has money and I have a feeling she's trying to screw me.
Anything would be appreciated right now.. are these fair prices? not? What is my stuff worth? Is there some kind of commission FAQ, lol

zoo and stuff [17 Sep 2006|07:14pm]
Worst zoo day ever. Note to self: do NOT go to the zoo on a Sunday.. or Saturday for that matter. Everyone and their brother was there.. screaming children.. horrid crowds... gangsters with their posse's. ugh. I loved those parents that have their squirming children on top of their shoulders that slowly eased in behind us and SHRIEKED: "HEY LOOK 'insert name' THEY'RE DRAWING THE ANIMALS! ISNT THAT GREAT YOU COULD DO THAT SOMEDAY"
like wtf. get the fuck away before my ears bleed onto your infant. or I stab him with my mechanical pencil.
Some kid nearly fell into the ape exhibit. He was climbing on the wooden posts and was using Shane, for a second, as a shimmying device to get to the top. All Shane had to do was nudge his little bottom and PLOP! OH NOES EATEN ALIVE BY CHIMPS.
Anyhow. We had to leav early because my camera ran out of batteries and froze with the shutter open. Didn't even get to see the Tapirs >( But the new baby giraffe is ADORABLE. And growing an eighth of an inch a day :D and the baby chimp is too cute for words. Also.. new white alligator in the front next to the seals.. pretty cool. Would look even cooler in it's natural habitat. bahhh.

There are fires all around and my eyes are -killing- me. All the wind is blowing in the ashes. it's terrible.

I've been crying off and on for the past couple of days.
Today it's really sinking in. Bless Steve Irwin.. he is a saint in my book. My thoughts go out to Terry and the children.

little dilemna.. could use some input [03 Aug 2005|06:18pm]
[ mood | confused ]
[ music | dashboard ]

I mentioned in a previous entry that the little girl I used to babysit had a very bad accident and will now have to recieve facial reconstructive surgery for a good portion of her life..

Now, I want to make her a card. But I'm very confused on what I should draw.

I was originally thinking of drawing some sort of injured animal (cartoony/cute with a bandaid somewhere) but I'm not sure what message that would send. I've never done a get well card for such a serious injury... and I'd really appreciate some input.

thanks

due to recent events I will no longer be updating this journal.
My parents are kicking me out. Those who are fortunate enough to have my number/email will be the only ones I will remain in contact with. I'm sorry. I'm avoiding contact with everyone at this point.

I think I'll really enjoy this job.

I'm currently waiting on Johnathan so we can go register together. Cuz I get all scrd with that kind of stuff ;; lots of people bumbling about.. trying to get counseling appointments. not my kind of fun.

FUCKING MAKE IT STOP
I can't stop crying. and I can't catch my breath.
I really wish I weren't born. I wish I never aged enough to meet him. I wish he would just fucking vanish.
I wish an airplane engine would crash into my house and just kill me already.
kill me while I still believe that he's meant for me.
i hate him. *trembles uncontrollably*

trying not to bury myself in depression here, but.. [03 Nov 2004|02:15pm]
a good friend of mine.. and Jonathan's.. committed suicide last Thursday.
This guy pretty much patented one of my nicknames. We had classes together since he first moved here back when we were in 7th grade. We were also each other's homework backup, whenever the other didn't finish the assignment.. we'd always have the homework thing worked out between the two of us so we'd both get the grade.
I really didn't want to post this. but again, life goes on, and this is something I'd like to look back on.
He did this over a girl he'd been dating for two years..
Mary says it best. it's selfish. there are so many wonderful things to enjoy in this life, even if they come with consequences.... they must be dealt with in another way. any other way than suicide. Things can't be so bad that you have to kill yourself. come on.
I'm really not okay with the fact that I've lost two friends at such a young age.
That's probably why I tell everyone to drive safely. *sigh*
