Never mind that

Ok so ... ai's Tampa branch doesn't have online classes. I want to work at my own pace and on my own schedule. The less pressured I feel the better I am likely to perform. I find this out after having settled into the idea of going back to school. Which sux. I really wanted to go there. I have their awesome brochure and nothing to show for it. I'll try the University of Phoenix next. Although I find their questionare unbarably long and kind of unnecessary. I went to Phoenix's website before I hit up ai. Shoulda stuck around it seems, eh? I know better. I never get anything on the 1st try. Lol.

I'm a bit disapoointed about the setback. The longer I have to wait the more complacent I'll get. So by the time fall session starts I should be good and worked up and thus so, driving a certain innocent parental unit crazy. WARNING! EARTH TO SAID PARENTAL UNIT!

Apparently I have to choose my major 1st. Which sux thrice. That means no animation or web design.  Which leaves digital film/video. That is if the same options are available through Phoenix. Their course list seemed vague. I'm also worried about where the friggon $'s gonna come from to do this. But never mind that. Lol.

I have lists I have to create. I need art supplies and a camera/parts. Which sux again. Because then I have to remember where I write them down.


Oh! I found out I wasn't clicking enough on motion's website. There are 15 million festivals to scroll through. So I'm going to recheck on that. Still almost certain FREAK is disqualified though for reasons I outlined in my previous entry. But I will look. Never know.

Saw UP, AVATAR, SHERLOCK HOLMES (love me some Guy Ritchie) and THIS IS IT on netflix. Pretty good. This is it made me tear up. I miss Michael. What a highly talented and creative genius. And it would seem, villified and misunderstood. And now I shall watch Spartacus so my brother will finally quit bugging me about it. But 1 epi at a time, damn it. None of this 48 hr watch every epi in a row crap. I don't care how good it is. My attention span's not as long as it used to be.

I figured out why I don't like Lady Gaga. She's like a cross between Madonna (love her) and Marilyn Manson. And while that's great, these girls, (Christina 2) have no politics are true agenda. And maybe Madgie is guilty of sometimes having a big mouth, being uber assertive and opinionated, (which can get annoying) at least she always had something to say. And I definitely respect that.

I think the special TLC'S running on MJ's kids is a mistake. They deserve their privacy and room to breathe/mourn. Besides, it's just too soon. It's like when Bill Marr dressed as The Crocodile  Hunter complete with stingray sticking out of his chest that year. Whether for Haloween or not, it was just innapropriate. I could see them checking in when the kids are a little older. But come on. Now? Really, guys?! The BP OIL SPILL and Joran Vandersloot. WTF, people! What else should I say? Outrage doesn't cover it.

Venice season 2 won't start until like Dec. Sux quatro. But I'm half way through true blood blood book 5. aka Definitely Dead with Quinn.

And I'm off. Bye ya'll!

That's Why You're Finding Out Now

Sry about the long wait ya'll. When I'm depressed I don't blog. So anyway, here's what happened. I knew I'd be hearing from Bobby or Mike about Canvas 6 soon. I was beginning to feel that itch, if ya know what I mean. I had this huge flippin blow up. Trust me it was ugly. Ask my poor brother. My camera battery charger or battery or both quit. I had plans to shoot pics for the show this year. I mean sprcifically and  I was actually excited about it. Proud that I had in fact planned something out instead of just throwing something together. Which is what made me so d*mn mad about it. So 2 friggon days later I get this email from Bobby about their new film project/show called motion. Bobby only knows I have a film. Not what kind of film it is. So based on the rules, no sacriligion or pornography FREAK is automatically disqualified. Even though I'm pretty sure based on my footage that it's open to interpretation, somehow I don't think a church is the appropriate setting for my little flick that could. There is nudity and it is jarring to say the least. Beyond that, they don't accept digital formats yet. So I have to shoot off a thanks but no thanks maybe next year note in the next couple days.

I have completed work. Even completed paintings from this year.A large back log in fact. But nothing felt right. The idea of doing something specifically for 6 really turned me on. So as you could imagine, the come down was even worse. I mean, seriously. Sh*t dude.

There were family issues afoot, so I figured we were moving again. That had my completely derailed. I dismissed any plans (including taking a class and learning to drive.) (Doris, hit the brakes on ye old encouragement train. I'm still working thru this in my brain. I haven't clicked the links yet either. Schooling is hard for me and you know this. So don't email me any info either. If I do this, it's on my terms. I mean it, Miss. I will freak the frek out, ok? Thank you. That's why your finding out now, instead of last wk.)  I had and was preparing the fall out shelter accordingly. But mom basically kicked my ass until I changed my mind. So maybe another week passes and I sent in 3 of my graphic designs instead. At which point mom handed me back my ass cheeks.

In between I'd been sick with another bad bout of IBS. The last 2 were basically back to back and I turned beat red and developed what my mom thought to be a fever blister. Those things are gross. Yay. Good times.


Bye!
