Status: Is there still sleep in my eyes or is my imagination?


Sometimes i think you go to bed more awake than when you wake up... the only thing I remember was waking up nearly every two hours to which I mumbled to my mother "I work Sunday though"... Do not fret, it was in response to something her and dad were discussing...

Well the walls of the studio are going to be painted this afternoon and the furniture in by Sunday! To which I am excited... what's even better is that I have some time to do what I want... so long as I get my extensive To Do List done... sweatdrop They are things I aim to achieve everyday... yesterdays to do list was only 50% complete and most of the bodgey jobs that required little if no effort.... so today I'm going to try harder...! Like do the bathroom, the toilet (AH! It's trying to eat me alive!) and maybe vaccum my bedroom... I would also like to sweep the floors and get a bit of Kingdon Hearts 2 gamelay in... then there's a commission I have to do... *sighs* yeah... and jack tells me I do too much during the day hence I get tired...

oh well... I'm not really getting any major work in so I guess I can do that.. I don't start school till the 31st of Janurary anyway so while I can I will.... plus im not working today biggrin


Catch you all around some time!

~ waiting to have breakfast!


I can't have breakfast till 8:00! scream *grumble mumble grumble mumble* oh well i guess that's plenty time to jot down something here... or rather type exssessively about nothing sweatdrop I quiet like writing down whats going on in the small cranies of my somewhat bland existance. Which reminds me i have to go to work today xp at least it's only for three hours and the last 15 minutes will be me trying hard to get wet as I am watering the plants in the annex...it's kinda hard when your a water magnet..
My mother has told me that all through my life... even if there was a terrible drought with no signs of water to be seen I would somehow miraclously come back drenched in in mud and water. Mum said it was how she knew we weren't all going to die.... stare
well yesterday Kim my department manager put me in charge of watering the plants before I leave after every shift... when she asked me if I had watered them yesterday i immediately thought she was being funny as my feet were schelching and pants were dripping... so even if they didn't getwatered at least i know i did! Maybe i'll grow taller and be more productive... either that or im doomed to wet shoes my entire kmart life...

now there's something to consider...

not only that I started an art auction which isn't going too well i'm afraid crying ... we had trouble at first with it appearing in the wrong forum so I had to ask the mod to move it which they did so fast ^-^ was very happy!

But that's as far as it has gone really... as noone seems interested... sad oh well... i'll just give it more time I guess... if you want to see how not active my auction is click here!

well see you all later!

~ 10:46pm
~ Home from work!

Well tonight was not as bad a shift as what I had expected it to be... in fact it was rather pleasnat just doing recovery by myself without anyones intereference really... but there you go I like it when all th emanagers piss off! Gives me real valuable thinking time. They are usually along the lines of, "Wonder what the time is?" "what? Why is it the time the same as when I last looked?" "don't look at the time," "Oh wait a second... I think that's in stationery..." I hardly got anything done but what I did do was rather mickey mouse top notch good! If that made any sense I want you to have this cookie....

I was thinking today as I tend to do that, do people actually bother to read this rather boring piece of diary space or do hey merely think she has nothing to do... and as I thought about it some more I realised that yes noone probably reads this and yes it is no doubt I waste of space... however I do like to type rather random crap that happens in my life... pity it isn't really usuful crap (if it was it'd be interesting wouldn't it biggrin )

Well the long awaited opening of my studio is on saturday however the room was completed ahead of time which I am delighted about. After downing dinner I went into the studio (which mother and I had finished painting today) all ready to do the assemsbling of the furniture (from IKEA) only to find that while I was working, my family had gone in and assmebled it and arranged it so beautifully for me as a surprise! GOd I love them they are so good to me! It is great... I shall take some photos for you and show you all what the studio looks like and what we have all done to make it look like that... pity I didnt take a photo before we began so you could see what a s**t heap it was before we got it all up and running.... it is so nice in there!

I also need to look into getting a new tablet as my last one has broken and doing CG commissions is a b***h! I hate doing them and love doing them if that makes sense (here... take another cookie) I love to do them and they are fun but they can be a b***h as doing it by mouse is rather hard and they don't turn out the way I want them too! However, as I have money in my bank account I shall set out to rectify that problem!

Tomorrow I shall be catching up with my friend Jack and am somewhat excited about that! I also get to pay a visit to the art store as I need to purchase a set of new pencils as the ones my big brother so gracious bestowed ypon me have nearly been worked down to a little piece of wood that would've once resembled a pencil.... however the tine is nice and I rather like it... its german biggrin

anyways I shall catch you all later whether you read it or not!

As you can see I bothered to type a few more words so as to make refernece to previous entries... most of them don't have titles however to make things easier for people (particularly the ones that bother to read... here have a cookie you guys) I have decided to add a title to the top of my diary entries... well it'll all be down hill from here... now all we need is a disco ball, booz and raving music and we'd all be set to parteh!

I started my schooling today... i'm now self taught and boy is it easy! It's so much fun and i'm really having a great time with it... ok so its only the first day but hey its better than having to report it was s**t and I hate it right? yeah... i thought you'd all agree...

Oh before I forget if you wish to comment on any entries please leave a message either in me PM box, me profile or right here! I love people PMing me or dropping me a line!

I think I spend a good portion of my time gambling... I am trying to raise some tickets for my friend who wants some jokers stuff but he has on;y about 170 tickets so I'm helping out... but I hate jinx! Bloody luck on her side *grumble mumble muble grumble* ok so I'm done there... dont want any tickets then just throw them my way biggrin

I also commissioned another artwork so here it is...! I love it its so cute!



its from sakise! I liked it so much I went and bought another! So I cant wait to get it biggrin

The auction is going great too! Of course there has only been two bidders but the funds are steadily growing higher biggrin So its up 35K! Can you believe it?! Wanna check it out? Just click me sig and it'll take you straight there!
anyways thats about it for now!

Trying to think of something a little more constructive in the way of a title but that effort has failed miserably. today was a rather nice day with calls from two good friends and the studio opening tomorrow proving to be a rather exciting affair... which reminds me must have ribbon on the door so I may cut it to mark the oficial opening. I shall post some pictures too so you may all see it! 4laugh
Went looking for art today... man it is a hard task on gaia trying to get people to buy your artworks. Being commissioned requires more selling of yourslf and wears than waiting for them to creep up. Usually if I don't go looking for work it don't come in.. which leaves me to wonder whether the people sitting and waiting for art actually go out and search for it? I know personally im always mosing about the request/commissions forum just to see if anyone would commission me. Some days I get a couple and some days i turn up rejected and with no sign of money coming in anywhere. But one must continue through with a steady heart knowing somewhere out there people want your art...

anyways... enough blameless rabbling... catch you all later!

Well I have been looking around for a new tablet pen/ new tablet and it seems that finally after near months of paintstaking mouse Cg work I may have either one sooner rather than later... and in my opinion about bloody time too! I have been near beside myself thinking I shall never rise above the ranks of which I am currently situtated yet there, just in the horizon is that stone pedestal. there upon it lies the tablet/ tablet pen that will enable me to continue my quest to become a great artist!
Do I sound desperate? Well i hope I do because I really want to fix my tablet!

Anyways, I have noticed that valentines day is very special to many people as my shop has had a good run of business since introducing the couples sale. Maybe I should hold annual season sales to improve business. I can't wait till the new CG + range is realeased. As well as that I was thinking of opening two new shops. One for avi edits (if my tablet is fixed in time) and one for simple shop banners at very (and I mean very) minimal fee. Along with my music classes I hope to pick up and my work and my studies I should be fairly occupied ^-^ (thats what Im struggling with... keeping occupied!)

I may even look into new drama classes but first I should convince my mother I can handle work and music classes and study with art, and practice in between. I was thinking today that with the amount of things that I do that i tend to do a lot in the way of keeping busy. When I go to do a "to-do-list" there are usually ten or so items there. They include exercise as well so with all that how do i fit in time to eat, sleep and rest? I dunno to be honest ^-^

Oh well! I also got some more art today which was great... i think its awesome and it reminds me of my early days. I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you heart
