Wow! Tha last time I paid attention to my pageviews, I was at 700+. Such a jump!
Thanks for looking at my stuff everyone. I'm in ceramics class at KU this semester so I will be updating photos in here with new work. I also have some stuff from my design class over the summer.

So I'm going to Lawrence on the 20th, woo! I'm visiting with an advisor from the design/ceramics dept. and meeting with the woman who will probably be my boss (I'll be a student worker in the Box Office at the Crofton-Preyer Theatre, yay!) in the fall.

I'm very excited about this trip, but not just because of the aforementioned stuffs. First off, this will be the first time I drive there solo (I did all the driving last time myself, but I had my cousin with me). Also, since my own car can barely make it out to Meramec from my house (I seriously think it's going to croak tomorrow when I drive out there to drop my design class), I'm renting a car for the drive across Missouri.

I'm currently catching up in my Comp class... doing pretty well in my Art History and Biology classes... have to drop design though and take it in the summer. It just wasn't working out. There's a nice Tues-Thurs evening class that I think will work out better. Hopefully they won't ask me to buy any uber-expensive paints for this one.

Yesterday was my cousin's birthday(28), A family friend's wedding is on Saturday, and one of my two best friend's birthday is coming up so I've been vair vair busy. I am brimming with ideas though. It always happens when I'm busy and in a somewhat morose state.

So I'm pleased to announce that I will be attending KU's School of Art and Design this coming fall. Woo! I will be working on a degree in Ceramics. Double Woo!

I'm taking a design class this semester that quite frankly I couldn't be less thrilled about. But with hope, I'll get through it with minimal damage, lol.

The scanner I was given doesn't work, so I'm saving up for a brand new one that will also scan the negatives from my photography class last semester. Once I get the scanner, I'll be able to put up pictures again.

So I lost about 10 lbs this summer, woo! I didn't save any money for school yet though... summer is bad for saving money, especially since everyone wants to go out. Le sigh. My family continually thwarted my cleaning efforts... as in messing it back up not too long after I finished. So I try again now that I've lost one of the culprits. Bathroom first, then kitchen, then livingroom. Mom's going to clean the diningroom... and I'll go through it all after she's done since she tends to hold onto things she really doesn't need.

My room is getting a major overhaul this fall... lots of things are going. And I'm continuing body shrinking efforts... I'm hoping to drop a pant size sometime in October. But onto the goody art stuffs...

I'm designing a 50's style dress for myself that I will also make. It's going to be lots of the fun and exciting.

I'm a full time student for the first time since high school. I'm taking College Composition I, Art History I, Photography I, and Figure Drawing I. So there will definitely be alot of things for you to look forward to. I have a new, used scanner (which may or may not actually work, but hey, it was free) so hopefully I'll have that to help put my creations on here.

So I am taking this summer to earn some extra money towards school, lose some inches around my waist and bust, and clean house. I'll be on to check things around here every now and again, but consider me on vacation for now. I'll be back either when the school year starts back up, or if I make a substantial change. But my efforts must be concentrated on this. Wish me luck.

Love and hugs!
