It's been a while

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 9, 2008, 11:08 PM
Been pretty busy lately, trying to get back into a routine. Taking a break from blender for a minute (reminds me, I need some tunes..h/o.... There we go).

Big news lately:

- On a soccer team in a league: The Mercenaries (fitting)

- WORKING OUT AGAIN, WOOHOO (I need it...I'm out of shape for soccer).

- School fully started back up again (about time...looks like I'll be catching up during the summer, not moving forward)

-Perhaps the biggest and most exciting is that I requested information from Full Sail and a representative lady called me the same day (today) and was drilling me, and said I was on the right track, but suggested to take a sculpture/clay modeling course. Just worried about meeting the Diploma/GED requirements (CURSES, HOMESCHOOLING!).

Still not 100% on full sail, I want to visit it first, as I'm spending probably $60,000 on it. This means 1) I need to excel or else I'm going to owe a lot of money with no way of paying it off. A little nervous, but it's what I love to do, so shouldn't be a problem (optimism is key). 2.).... Well, I forget what 2 was... But if I remember I'll let you know.

-Daily sketch group: Next DSG (DSG #1450 I think it will be) I'll be participating in again, so woohoo there. It helps me out so much in 2d art. That reminds me, the rep for Full Sail asked specifically about 2d art, nothing about working on 3d prior to entering full sail. They apparently really focus on 2d art, which I knew for the most part, but - it's a big deal, I guess.. Anywho... *-Grabs writing tablet and draws away...*

-Got a cell phone: woohoo, bout time =)

-I really really really am trying to learn German, so I can then learn spanish. Meeting a lot of cool people who speak both english and spanish and I feel so ignorant. Rosetta Stone: Spanish (Lat. Am.) Level 1, here I come (after German 1).

I want to work on guitar, but I just don't haven't had the time. Driving me nuts =(. I pick it up for 10 minutes here and there, but that's all. No advancement in my songs.

Well, time to get back to my massive project on blender. Basically it's a friend of mine's dream I'm visualizing for the world to see. It will be an excellent demo reel once complete and it's coming along slowly but surely.

What else... Ummm, bike tire is flat, so going to soccer field is tough ><.... Went to sports authority and SOMEHOW I bought the wrong tube size. I could've sworn it was 26"...grrr... And what's worse is I know there are 3 spare, self-sealing tubes either around here or at my brother's apt!...Can't find them either...Oh well lol...
