Waking up from the dead...!
Sooo...wow I haven't done this in a while! Yay~~~ A blog filled with pictures~~~! ...again, but this time Blogspot made it easier. FINALLY. So...I guess expect more updates? Hah...not likely....but I dunno...I'll try? Blogger recently caught my eye again...ohhh dear...now I have 3 blogs....Tumblr, LJ (angsty blog), and now Blogger...

Hm...well Tumblr is more for humor and LJ is well...as said above...this blog will be more of a process blog.

Now...Lets begin, shall we?
3D design was tedious today...as always...I hope these plastic models come out alright @_____@
Shit...I was so tired today that I just rode the shuttle instead of walking...besides, it was a bit too windy anyways. Lil'Ol' me would've flown awaaaaaaaaaaaay~! Heh.


It's kind of funny seeing all the people waiting for the shuttle...and me with my huge ass art bag walking in between the aisles...and hitting people....my bad!


BOOK SALE @ UTSA!!!


I really liked how they used colorful book cases...I want some bright bookcases now...♥

Hm...every Uni that I've been to (yes, yes...I transferred again...) has always had a Chic-Fil-A...well...except for St. Edwards. Damn hippies!


Gah...Drawing II...I kind of dislike this class, but this time...I actually like it. Color wasn't THAT bad for me compared to scale and proportions...and the color pencil bit was fun~~~♫!


Just chillin' before Physical Anthro....which was a HORRIBLE idea...I didn't realize we had HW
FUCK! (\( O____O ;;;;(\   )
But...thankfully I ran with all my might...printed the work sheets...and...well...had help from my peers.

Psh...look at that tool (my friend Nao...the one in the white hoodie)

Gah...so after panicking a bit during Phys.Anthropology...I panicked again in Survey of Modern Art. I normally don't bitch so much about teachers...I mean they are doing their jobs tormenting teaching their students...well, usually they are reasonable. The last teacher I disliked at UIW...I guess she was trying to get me to suit up and work harder...but of course I grew more and more apathetic towards Graphic Design...It just...really lost it's flame with me...Sad, but true. Although she was a bitch, she got me to design a bit cleaner...and some advice on my career path...so...I can't be too harsh with her...not like the one I am about to rant on now..........seriously WTF?!

1.) Art History teacher...still working on her degree. Well her masters, good luck to her.
2.) From Mexico, has a thick accent...her lectures go REALLY fast...and her vocabulary isn't THAT broad...she tends to ask questions about using a word correctly from time to time...well gotta give her credit for trying. A 2nd language is hard to learn, and teaching in it...? Daaaamn. Go her!
3.) Her Test: 1st one was easy, good study guide.
4.) Her Test: 2nd one...Thursday....no study guide. WTF?
5.) 2nd Test: Identify 10 artworks. She will not give a list for ANYTHING. She wont give us a list to study within...she wont give us multiple choices on them...WTF?!
6.) All my past Art History teachers have given me a 30-50 slide list, and would test us on at least 10 of them...sure that was hard...but at least they GAVE us an idea and was trying to AIDE us...WTF is UP with this woman?! We can't understand her, her lectures suck (they always get side tracked), and well...WTF?!

LADY GIVE US A BREAK HERE!!!

Bah...fuck that woman. She's nice...but she is retarded. There was a girl who was close to tears when the teacher was explaining how she wouldn't help us on the test...Well that girl seemed like an overachiever...but a really hard working student...so...I don't blame her for panicking so much to the point of tears. At the moment...I'm just pissed. Utterly shocked really. But fuck it...here comes another all nighter...gotta study rather than blogging and ranting on this nonsense....hm...too late :P!

By the time my school day ends, the sun begins to set...

First week of School
Okkkk, I has internetz now! Yay! It is my time to start updating :D Don't worry, I didn't forget my dear staulker friends ;P

Sunday Night: I arrived in Austin after getting a bit....lost...sorry Mari & Jose! But man, that night we got things going. We first set up the futon, then the chair, and last the desk. I want to kick myself in the ass, the desk had so many fucking things to assemble! I am NOT going to disassemble them whenever I move back...ahh but I'm worried about the end, I need someone to move in for my place during the summers and then someone to move in WITH me. Ohhhh what to do, what to do. Anyways...for those of u interested here's my room:It's pretty small, but cozy :) It's RIGHT next to the restroom, and I have a balcony! It's great :D
I'm still SOME WHAT unpacking....heh...I'm a bit lazy, and besides....I think I'm good....maybe.
The view from my room.

MONDAY: I.....got lost getting to school......and I live like 2.2 miles away from St. Eds, takes 5 mins or so to get there depending on traffic....SHADDAP! You don't know me, don't judge!!!
.....Pathetic! XD
I had Japanese, World Lit, Typography, and Sequential Art. I know Sequential Art is going to be my favorite class...EVER! I mean, our field trip is to go to the Austin Comics! Also, DAVID MACK is going to come and lecture! Fucking Awesome!

After my classes, I dropped by Kathleen's apt. :D!
She lives on campus in an efficiency...lucky bastard!
Those counters were freakishly tall :\
After a while, Leslie came by!
The hell is Kathleen doing? It's chill....it's her place, after all :P

TUESDAY: I had sculpture and World Religions....Sculpture is FUN, but time consuming....but look! here's my first sculpture! Our project is to make 3 mini torsos (4"-5")...due...Thursday, I think? After classes I went back to my apt waiting for Shrek, so we can go and eat at the lovely Mings w/ slushies....GOD, how I MISS that! OH, but speaking about missing things.....I saw someone who I missed! KELSEY!! Ohhhhh Joy! T'was funny, we were in the cafe and kept staring at each other until one of us was like:
Me: "...Kelsey?"
Kelsey: "...Kat?"
Both: OH MY GOD!!My Futon-Bed! I have set as a couch....I don't like sleeping in wide areas, I'm not used to it... :\
"God Damnit Shrek, where the hell are u?" :P
Wow...with that red streak, it almost looked like I was bleeding from my temple.....WHO SHOT ME??
....Don't I have anything better to do? No...cause I'm a loser :( Or well...I SHOULD be doing hw! XD
Well, when Shrek came we went to eat, then he helped me go to some book stores to find the reading material for Typography....we got lost. I had to txt Vinnie quite a bit XD but of course, we found it at least?...but they didn't have it. Sucks. We then went to target to get a laundry bag, and then to wal-mart for a trashcan (Target was closing and didn't have a lot of selection). Ahhh but it was a funny night, I kept missing with his GPS. It can have an Irish or British accent!!! HILARITY ENSUES!

WEDNESDAY: Didn't do much really, just watched TDI, Proj Runway, and Shear Genius with Vinnie and Shrek. Yes! We have cable tv now! :D
After t.v., Shrek and I went to Denny's....damn, those Hot Fudge Brownie A La Mode are delicious....like heaven! Damn Jose and Jenny...introducing it to me!
Look how widdle Vinnie is compared to Shrek! XD! Ohhhh man....even I'M taller than her! She's like Mari :P ...I LOVE YOU MARI!!!

TODAY:
In sculpture, there was a model. Yes, we had to sculpt him. While he was nude. Well....I am NOW used to it due to Drawing (last year). Thankfully, it wasn't an old smelly guy. This time he was young, like in his 20s. Just to answer Trekkie's q of "was he cute?" ....meh, he's decent XD
Before going to World Religion after Sculpture I discovered the weirdest thing...a Gay Feminist. Not a lesbian, a GAY as in a fag (not in a hateful sense, those type of gay guys who are flamboyant sense). He was talking about how much of a feminist he is, but not in a political way. Instead, he was a feminist in a spiritual/emotional sense.....interesting.

After classes and getting my net set up, I went on the bus to see Kelsey at her last day of work (she was also gunna give me a 30% discount on a pair of shoes if I found one that I liked).
Bus approximately takes 22 mins (walking and waiting at the stop included) to get to school...and an HOUR to get to the drag. So much fucking traffic and was so packed!
The only great thing about it was....I was sitting next to a hot guy from my school XD
Wha? He's so pretty, looks like a model....even has long slender legs like a model too!...hey, don't look at me like that. I'm not a perv! I at least tried talking to him and not staulking him ::coughcoughvanessacoughcough::: His name is Andrew :)
Doesn't that lady have a crazy hat? It's pretty funny and kool. Haha..I bet Andrew thought I was weird....sad face.
There was an argument between this old black woman and a black family. The little girl of the family was like "I wish you would move" to her dad (because they were crammed by the 2nd door), and the old woman thought she was talking to her and told her to be patient. The dad thought she called his daughter something, and got all protective over the girl. Needless to say the old woman and the dad got in an argument. lol I must admit, it was fun to watch.

Needless to day, I didn't make it on time to get shoes with a discount. Wasn't like there was a pair that I really wanted. Besides, I got to meet up with Kelsey nonetheless :)!
Sad face, she couldn't get on the bus due the driver telling her to throw away her drink...and she refused XD
On our way back on the bus, I saw a guy who had Judy's hairstyle. I kind of screamed, and Kelsey was like "OMG! It looks like Johnathon(her bf) and Judy combined!!!"
LE GASP!
Judy, I found ur long lost cousin/brother!!!

That about sums my first week here, I'll be back in SA for the weekend to work at the restaurant.
Sorry for the long post!

...What was Post #3 supposed to be?
So...Tuesday, I went up to Austin w/ Yuuko and Judy. Packed most of my shit to my new apt. We even went to Ikea to get me a futon :)...Ikea was fucking HUGE!
Judy and I got LOST in this place (Yuuko stayed in the car, to nap....but she didn't :\)
We were here for like an hour in the exhibit area, and us with our ADD, were like "oooh that's a cool chair" or "ooooh I would LOVE this set up in my room!".....halfway throughout this marvelous misadventure, we realized there were arrows on the ground instead of following the map....wow.
Then we went into the self-serve hardware area. That's where we realized...there were doors that cut from certain areas.............they were SECRET doors I tell u! SECRET!

After that great moment, we drove back to San Antonio....and wow, were there excitement in that!
We got rear ended :\ by some ex navy guy. I felt SO bad for him, he looked so shocked and scared when he came out of the car. Good thing he's an honest good guy, he followed us to the gas station and looked at both conditions of the car. Exchanged info, etc.
THEN as we continued onto the highway, there were pieces of furniture on the road! Everyone had to break and swerve around. Ohhhh scary, poor Yuuko. She felt a bit fragile at that point. I mean, we WERE in Papa's van after all.

When we got back to SA, Yuuko, being the sleepiest one had to go work at the restaurant. Sucks :\
....well....at least I got majority of my stuff there and my tires fixed...yay?

JOSE'S DAY

.....well nothing really happened, was supposed to meet him with everyone at his house to play games...but I still had work. Instead, I picked Judy up and we met at Bubble Head. Ohhh...our last drinks at Bubble Head before departure :\ Ah, but he left early cause he was going out to eat dinner with his family. Le sigh, it was short meet but I hope you have a great time at Villanova, Jose!
(saw this on the way of picking Judy up XD)
Since Jose left, we all went our separate ways. We didn't do anything after his dinner, so Judy and I went to pick Vanessa up. We had a Mighty Kids Meal picnic at the Landa Library park :D!
I GOT A COOLER TOY THAN VANESSA :P!!!!
Wooo...go clone!...I don't even care for Star Wars...?

To end the night, we made s'mores (at the same place :P)
We couldn't make a real fire due to many reasons....oh c'mon, it's common sense!
So we used candles....it worked :).....alright.
BUT for SOME reason it kept going out. Judy and Vanessa say cause there was a ghost present or something, but I'm thinking there was a bit of a wind...well, no it wasn't windy...hm.......
W/E stupid candles were just weak, that's all!It's a Heart!.....of FIRE AND WAX! Mmm...s'mores....we used chopsticks as skewers btw :P hey...it works!


MY DAY.....sucked :\

Nothing was planned, or well it wasn't known that tonight would basically be my last night to hang out here in SA. Originally, I had planned to hang out with Vanessa but she had family over. Judy was with the trio, and I never really hear from Trekkie :(
Well, at least I got things accomplished I suppose. I woke up early and got my transcripts from SAC so I can transfer my math credits to St. Eds. I also got my hair dyed :D :D :D !!

Can you tell the diff? I bet you can't!...well, at least not from this picture :P But I assure you it's pretty nifty.WA-LAH!!! See? It's a bit subtle, but it's pretty red on the bottom. Will look awesome when I put it up in a ponytail or something. Oh Joy~!
I need to texture the black part of my hair, so the red would show more...hm...but I'm leaving to Austin on Sunday....oh well. So yeah...that was all for my day. So fun that I am officially broke. Well not really, but I'm not going to use the rest of my money. I have to put it all in the bank. Needs to pay the bills! Gahhhh, I'm so sleepy and bored now....my cue to just shut up and sleep @_@

How uneventful.

Apathy awaits us all
I really don't feel like studying for College Algebra anymore :\
I feel KIND of confident, but not. I'm just tired of it all. Well on lighter news, this summer of math is soon to end :)! Ahhh...but that means, I'll be moving out into the REAL world :O! New Apt., college, no family, gotta hang in there with the friends I've made from last year and make new ones. Aiiya~

Just for Jose.....
(Yes, that is my actual speedometer)

I also dyed my hair last night! Though no one noticed....but it's jet black now, no orange streak :(! But no worries...my next color style will be pretty crawsome :D MAN, I do look a bit older w/ no color...I look so posh :O and BITCHY!!! XD! Just look it! Maybe it's cause I'm not smiling, and it's at an angle to the point where it looks like an emo hair style...but gee willickers!!
I'm still changing around the layout for this blog. I liked the standard one...but it keeps overlapping with my profile and widgets X_X
G2 look that up and fix that shit. Ah le sigh, I really have nothing to post. I'm just trying to avoid my study duties. Maybe I should just go to sleep and wake up early? But NO! G2 finish now~! So then I can look through my old tests. Ohhhhh 1/3 or the Final on friday is going to kick my ass 500x!
