I am in a little bit of a predicament. Nintendo gave me 500 free WiiPoints but they expire the 31st of this month. I don’t have internet connection to use with my Wii so I cannot redeem the points.
If anyone is interested in 500 Free Points PM me or reply here.
Everything worked itself out in the end, despite my feelings and emotions it worked like magic.
Yesterday was not the best of days but I did all the right things regardless. I emailed my advisor and the director of the library about the testing situation. My advisor called and emailed today he bumped back my basic math class until I test and we worked out another location for me to take my test, if the library still will not allow me to test there.
The director of the library replied today
I’ve been absent here a lot lately because my drawing class is demanding, as I write this I should be working on my final project that is due Friday. I have also been absent because I have had to devote a lot of my personal time to studying for my placement tests because I have to take Math and English, and right now I am scheduled for the Basic courses because I don’t have any test scores to put me in the college level courses.
To take my placement test I have to have a proctor, someone who
Went to the dentist today to have three fillings done, two fillings needed cleaned out and replaced and another tooth needed one. The dentist is awesome, he worked so fast and nothing hurt at all. (Well he worked fast when I wasn’t swallowing. Their water gun in my mouth kept making me have to swallow while he was trying to work and he had to keep stopping.)
I really wish I had gone to him over the last few years rather than the lady that messed things up… They said keep flossing and warned
If you’re involved with me in any RPGs you know I haven’t been very active lately. I have a lot going on right now and just don’t have the time to actively role-play so I’m taking a break from them right now. I’ll still be around to work on projects and whatnot. If everything works out accordingly I should be back by the start of next month.
Here are the latest drawings for my class since I haven’t had the time to blog:
Eggs Aipom
Here is my first still life for my drawing class. I drew a book, bell, and miniature vase. I think it turned out okay. There is another still life drawing due Monday, only we have to draw even more objects and include greater detail.
Hmmm. This entry sounded so much better in my head last night, when I actually knew what I wanted to write about.
Family & Friends
It isn’t just family and it isn’t just friends. It is Family and Friends. People need friends outside of their family; it is just part of the natural order right? I have come to realize that you really do need friends. Everyone I know online is great and fills the void of actual companionship, but there is still something missing from the friendship. There
My room is becoming extremely unorganized due to all the new art supplies I had to purchase for this drawing class and all the other old supplies I have lying around. I need some sort of box to put my utensils in. Right now all I have is one pencil bag and that won’t work for everything I have now. I am thinking about finding a cheap toolbox at a dollar store or something to put everything in. I don’t have much of a budget, trying to stay under $20 for this.
Any suggestions?
My art supplies finally came today. I have to say I was a bit surprised by the box size, I thought it would have been bigger. They sent the drawing board in one of those big thin flap boxes, and everything else was in a box about the size of a shoebox.
I let the kid have the drawing board box. If you set it on its side it makes a great fort. There were two piece of cardboard that sandwiched the drawing board inside so they act as walls, so he has a pretty decent size box fort. He called it a
We had to do three gesture studies of objects from nature. Here are the things I drew, although I am not sure how well I did on this assignment. I also did about four other preliminary studies of the same objects, and these were the ones that turned out to be the best.
Can you guess what I drew?
The land that connects Canada and the United States is falling away. Water is reclaiming the land and separating the two largest countries that make up North America. A group of people just outside of one the major cities in Washington, near the borderline made are having a little scenic shindig. The areas near great bodies of water are suffering the greatest loss of landmass. In this case the Juan de Fuca Strait that connects to various ports and harbors and to the Pacific Ocean has destroyed p
My order of art supplies was supposed to be delivered on Thursday. They said there was a local weather delay every time I checked later in the day, after they said the packages were on a vehicle for delivery. The exact same thing happened Friday and Saturday.
So, I ended up calling them and spoke to some foreign guy. He told me they are backed up because they haven’t been able to deliver packages and mine won’t be delivered until Tuesday. Tuesday. They facility only operates Tues-Sat.
I
Here is my first drawing assignment for my drawing class. We had to draw our non-drawing hand without looking at the paper or picking up the pencil. I am nervous to hear what the professor has to say.
In other news, UPS delivered my books today. They wouldn’t yesterday because of the current weather conditions leftover from the big snowstorm. FedEx was supposed to deliver my art supplies yesterday, but they said the same thing. I expected them to deliver today but alas they did not come.
…is taking its toll. Monday the kid was here bright and early, because his mom has class during the day. Well we always keep him overnight on Monday, because she has class bright and early Tuesday. I watched him until 3pm on Tuesday and then his mom picked him up because she was done with class. From the time she picked him up, until my mom got home at 9pm, I worked on my final project that was due by 3am that night.
To my surprise, guess who was with my mom. The kid! She picked him up on he
Well I got it done, my final drawing that is, it is better than expected but not what I hoped for. If you’re interested here is the preliminary mark-up.
Oh yeah, I finished Season 4 of Supernatural today too.
I don’t know if people missed it, but:
I am extremely busy, and even though I might not be away and online, please do not bother me unless it is absolutely necessary.
Babysitting, cooking, and everything else just adds up so I do not have much time for BZP right now.
Art Supplies
I have a basic drawing class next and need to get supplies for the course, I just ordered my text books so I’m all set on that part of requirements. I need the following supplies:
• Graphite Drawing Pencils (6B, 4B, 2B and HB) • Vine Charcoal (soft, medium and hard) • Compressed Charcoal Stick • Black Fine-Point Permanent Marker • Kneaded Eraser • Mars Plastic Eraser • Pink Pearl Eraser • Sandpaper Block • Pencil Sharpener (non-electric) • X-acto Blade • Medium weight
Here are my four drawings for the latest class assignment, the final project before my final project. I used the same vanishing points and light source for all of the objects. My light source was right above the top of my paper, on another sheet where I placed my subjects. I drew a Chinese finger trap, an hourglass, a power-up mushroom from Mario, and an old fashioned miniature lantern.
I think these turned out okay but I think they could have been a bit better. I improved them after the pre
After seven days of couch surfing at relatives houses I’m finally home again. If you haven’t been following this blog and been under a rock, the big snowstorm on the east took out our power so we had to leave our house.
We stayed at my grandma’s but her house wasn’t in the best of shape, and it finally went out too. Luckily I went to my cousin’s house the day her house went, and my family stayed at another family member’s house. I spent two days at my grandma’s and five with my cousin’s and
Recently I came across a response that involved the words, "Because I'm in a foul mood," which led to the person expressing things in a somewhat questionable and unsuitable manner.
Just because you are in a foul mood does not mean you have to act differently towards people in this community. If you have a bad day at work, school, another website, or just something upsetting, there is no need to take it out on people here. Sure your family did something, your boss told you no vacation, or you
My uncle, cousin's dad, got a piece of metal in his arm today at work. So he had to go have surgery to get the thing out. He's all loopy on the medicine, but he is okay.
I got my scholarship application done and have it ready to mail out tomorrow.
My sister just called and said our power might be back on! :yay:
I'm not sure if I'm going home tonight or not though, have to see if they call again. You should have seen me jump when I felt the vibrator go off. I forgot I had the phone in
I'm staying at my cousin's house right, because our power is out and we have no idea when it will be back on. Last night around 9 something the power just flickered out and took the internet router with it. There was absolutely nothing to do in the dark besides go to bed. The power was supposedly to come on at midnight, I sat up in the dark until that time and it wasn't back on.
It's freezing weather outside so you need a warm house to sleep in, you can't let the house get too cold. So I went
