Dreary and Tired..

It's been rather sunless the past few days here in Savannah. The days are also full of sporadic showers that last five minutes and then stop. I think because of this rather sunless environment I am super sleepy all the time. Very lazy and lethargic, yup.

Anyways, this weekend Ryan and I bought a big bottle of wine and got drunk. It was fun, I haven't drunk anything in a while so it was just an overall goofy and relaxing night. Sunday was non productive and as far as I can remember nothing memorable happened.

Monday morning I realized I had forgotten to get my SCAD Card ID sticker. That was no good considering I had a speech due at 8am and couldn't afford to miss the class. Luckily the security guard lady let me through after writing down my info. I gave my speech and was somewhat disappointed in myself. I had thought I would do good and I guess I did fine really, I was on par with most of the other kids in the class. However, I totally freaked out and forgot to breathe when I got up in front of the room :( Oh well, the speech had to be 2 -3 min and mine was 2:20 (although when I practiced at home it was 2:40). So at least I got it over with, right?

Anyways, after class I went to the post office and mailed off a doll head I had sold and went to York Hall for my ID sticker. Then I had to go to Pepe for my World Architecture and Urbanism class. Before class I hung out with Matt because he's got a class there at 2pm as well. I was sad because usually talking to Matt makes me happy, but he just made me feel bad about myself and made me feel upset. I came home and talked it out with Ryan and really I am just upset because our goals in life are radically different and talking to him made me feel like I wasn't doing what I was supposed to be.

He is really career driven and literally spends every second on his VSFX work, where as, although I want a career and everything too, my priorities are not quite where his are. I'm facing that issue a lot lately, especially with the career fair coming up. I don't feel the mad rush to have a demo reel and things like my peers seem to be. I have my whole life to get a job and if I don't have something lined up the second I walk out the door with my diploma I am still happy, content, and have a plan. Oh well, whatever.

Yesterday I was too sleepy and hungry to go for a run so Ryan and I went to Carlito's. Then today I went to Portfolio and we went over what to put on our resumes. Then after class Ryan and I went to the grocery store. I meant to go running today but I decided against it (although it makes me feel bad) because its really muggy and the rain is too unpredictable. Now I don't know what to do for the rest of the night!

Random Junk:
-I have a new doll in mind that I MUST get someday, I just don't know when. I've decided that I'm not going to focus on making a storyline or fitting my dolls together so much as just collecting them because I like them and want them. Anyways, someday I am going to have a doll named Sakura and she will be based off of Sakura/Cherry Blossoms. She will either be a 26cm Tiny (Sara - like the little dolls we held at the Megacon meet) or a Pinky White Narae (also the doll from the meet).

-Ryan and I have been playing a lot of new games lately. I have been playing a lot of Toejam and Earl because that game amuses me. Also, Ryan has Bioshock on his computer and he also bought Super Mario World for his Wii.

-Although I don't have my design nailed yet, my demo reel and packaging will be themed around Sakura trees. I will post images when progress continues.

Anyways, that's it for now :D
