I have had too many dreams lately that are pissing me off. It like my mind can't help but want to show everything I can't have. It's like I'm on the outside looking in (which is true in this case). I wish it was the other way around where my good dreams came true and the bad ones didn't, but I guess I'm not that lucky.
The semester is essentially over. I have a little grading still to do, and I need to write an artist statement for my photo project, but other then that, its relaxing until January 2nd. I don't know what I'm going to do over break. I might spend some time in the studio and the lab working, maybe I'll just play games all break...
I could start working out, although I don't know if the personal trainers are going to be at the Corec over break, so I may just start when school starts. I'm going to get buff and even more handsome then now. :oP
I'm going to be interviewed for Tipp-C on Tuesday. I don't know that it's REALLY because they want to interview as it's more of a thing where they can't find anyone else. That's fine with me because the stuff I've been working on recently hasn't been my best work, but at least this gives me some exposure and can lead to more in the future.
Anyway, that's all for now. Here's to hoping that I start having some good dreams... and that THOSE come true...

My Last Day
Today is the last day of the semester for me (besides grading). I feel so relieved. Yesterday's final crit was kind of sad. I'm going to miss that class. They were my good class and all did pretty well for their final projects.
Today's class is a different story. They don't have the same kind of strong ideas my other class does. They always seem more interested in just getting the work done instead of actually making good work.
The crit should go fairly quickly today. I'd say and hour and a half tops. I don't want to keep them long... plus I'm ready to move on and start getting ready for next semester.
This semester was a learning experience for me. There were a lot of ups and downs, but I think everything turned out alright. I feel that I've been fairly productive and that I'm starting to realize where I want to go as a photographer. I'm taking the printmaking course next semester which is going to be different for me. It's going to be more focused on "art" and that is something I haven't done in a long time. It will be interesting to see what I turn out.
This is a mercy post. I haven't felt like writing anything in a while, but I felt I needed to update. It's almost over for me, and I can't wait until break starts (which is basically tomorrow).
w00t!

Fly Women and Giant Puppets
This is the kind of nightmares I have.
So I'm taking a nice afternoon nap when I am awoken by this freaking nightmare where I'm trapped in a house populated by giant puppet-zombie thing protecting this woman who lives in the basement. She is using the basement to give birth to her army of other fly women. She doesn't look like a fly... she looks like a woman... a hot woman. Somehow though, I know she's a fly woman. The other weird thing about this is that there a woman is with me helping me out, who looks just like the fly woman.
I end up pulling a tube out of the ceiling which somehow shoots a liquid out that melts all the fly women. Okay, we're still getting started. The woman that is with gets some of the liquid on her, and she starts to melt. OH NO, SHE'S A FLY WOMAN! But she's a good one, so it's ok.
We start to make our escape from the giant mansion, through all of the puppet zombies. They keep trying to stop us, but we just push the over, no big deal. Then they bring out the explosives. You know, the old kind of explosives you would see in Looney Toon cartoons. They keep pushing one plunger after another but keep missing. We finally make it to the front door, where e she and I grab a plunger from one of the puppet zombies and blow the whole thing up. That's when I woke up.
My dreams are fucked up.
Weirder yet... I think I've had this dream before...

Please Forgive Me
Want to write something, can't think of anything to write, therefore, you get the lyrics of the song currently playing.
Please forgive me
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do.
Feels like lightning running through my veins
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
Help me out here
All my words are falling short
And there's so much I want to say
Want to tell you just how good it feels
When you look at me that way
When you look at me that way
Throw a stone and watch the ripples flow
Moving out across the bay
Like a stone I fall into your eyes
Deep into some mystery
Deep into that mystery
I got half a mind to scream out loud
I got half a mind to die
So I won't ever have to lose you girl
Won't ever have to say goodbye
I won't ever have to lie
Won't ever have to say goodbye
Yeah na na na na
Yeah na na na na
Please forgive me
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do
It's like my head is filled with lightning girl
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do.
Feels like lightning running through my veins
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
Help me out here
All my words are falling short
And there's so much I want to say
Want to tell you just how good it feels
When you look at me that way
When you look at me that way
Throw a stone and watch the ripples flow
Moving out across the bay
Like a stone I fall into your eyes
Deep into some mystery
Deep into that mystery
I got half a mind to scream out loud
I got half a mind to die
So I won't ever have to lose you girl
Won't ever have to say goodbye
I won't ever have to lie
Won't ever have to say goodbye
Yeah na na na na
Yeah na na na na
Please forgive me
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do
It's like my head is filled with lightning girl
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
