Feeling productive. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I think I might start a food journal. How (much more) pretentious would that make me?

I miss taking pictures. I miss being carefree.

It seems as if all I ever think about it school. I should be working on an extra-credit assignment for my History class, but I just can't bring myself to do it. I have so much work to do and time isn't slowing down. I have this cloud of anxiety hovering over me; it's no-where near pouring yet, but it has definitely started drizzling.

I'm too caught up with not wanting to stay in Laredo for another year that I feel like I'm not functioning correctly. But then again, can you blame me? UT/ATX have pretty much turned into Pratt/BRKLYN for me. Don't get me wrong, I still have my eyes set on NYC, but I've decided to take a few extra steps along the way. I just cant' stand to see myself rotting away another year. THIS ISN'T WHAT I WANT.

Are my dreams of living in a bigger city and doing substantial things with my life too much to ask for?

Even this post feels like it makes no sense. :|

Stressed. Stressed. Stressed.

As summer gets even closer, so does the stress that accompanies the end of the semester. I'm fighting for those damn A's; I'll be damned if I'm gonna allow myself to rot here any longer. Once again, I have a lot to rant about, but I'm too consumed by critical essays, research proposals, and lame history quizzes to even try and write a decent post.

First Drawing circa January 2009?

Still Life Drawing circa November 2009?

On a lighter note, I'm satisfied with the progress of my drawing over the past year. I really would like to start drawing on a daily basis to keep that momentum going. What do you guys think? Practice makes perfect?
