That's right! My last book got here today! I skimmed it all and it looks pretty okay. I don't know if I'll be keeping it for reference though, probably.
Speaking of books I've sold three through my Amazon account. Well they're all my brother's but still. We've sold three so far. Looking good.
I went to the clinic today and got a random check-up just because. I went ahead and got HIV testing just because it was free. And to know. I had to go through a counselor first who asked me serious questions about my sexual life. I thought the "Are you a prostitute?" one was kind of funny. She had to make those questions anyway. My results won't be in until a week from now and even then I have to go in person. And through the counselor whether or not it's positive or negative.

[insert title name]
I checked my missing book's information and noticed that they had given me a tracking number. So I tracked it and it's in Ohio right now. It came all the way from Idaho and spent two days in Washington. I was getting a little nervous that I wasn't going to get it in time! It should be here tomorrow.
I guess today was my last day getting up late. Woke up around noon and had lunch then we all went out. I bought a new pair of pajama pants and a white ink gel pen for my design course.
I finally changed the look of my blog. I liked the old one but it was getting old. Meh.

Art Supplies!
Today I went and bought newsprint paper and Bistrol Vellum. I think I bought the wrong kind though, it's supposed to be smooth :/ When I saw my list of supplies and saw "newspaper paper" I was excited because I've been keeping old newspapers and I figured I could just use those. Haha, no. I bought a 30 lb. packet. Almost like a huge sketchbook. I wonder what I will look like carrying that to class. We'll find out soon.
I also went ahead and bought my Prismacolor set there. Around $12 for 12. Whatever. At least I know these are brand new and all the pencils are present.
Oh, and at the store I saw these cute, tiny easels displaying tiny canvases with the name of the store spelled out. I think I wanna do that for friends! That'd be super cool! And only $2 per canvas and/or easel.
Eh. No doodles today. I was out giving out business cards for my dad's starting business. We'll see how we do this summer.

Deal or No Deal
My Interior Visualization course is asking for a set of Prismacolor pencils. We all know those can't be the most affordable coloring pencils but they are great quality. I found a Craigslist seller asking $45 for two sets; a 120 and a 12 ct. set.
I'm torn. I don't really know if I trust on how good they will be. She says the set of 120 has barely been used. But what if the colors are crappy? Or just not my taste. But it is a lot of pencils for $45.
I didn't do any doodling today! Ugh. But I did work (4 hours).
My voice is back. I still can't sing high though. I love how I use Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You to test my range, haha.
I went grocery shopping with my parents today. Not very fun but we needed to. But then we came home, and surprise surprise! I found three packages begging to be opened! They were my books for school! I'm still waiting for one more, and after that I am buying two more down in Bloomington. :/
Books! Yay! I'm such a dork.
Oh. I failed to attend my best friend's movie night because I started getting a really bad head and toothache. They're gone now -.-

The Second!
First Sunday of the year! And I failed to go to church. Well not really. The choir decided to take a break so I did too. Spent the day with my family (when do I not?). Went out and ordered a morral from a lady who is going to Mexico soon. It's a very lightweight book bag. I'm hoping for something toned-down, don't really want to go around turning heads for the wrong reasons. Because I do love to turn heads.
Last night I really couldn't sleep, which is why I posted in the morning. What did I do? I turned my lamp on and doodled. And since it was already Sunday I counted those doodles for Sunday :) They were pretty decent too. I just want to get in the habit of actually being able to fill up a page with wonderfulness. I get scared though. Scared that it might be "messed up" or something like that. I'm pretty sure somebody else would be fine with just scribbling away, but I find blank pages to be somehow sacred. Either do it right, or not at all. Makes sense, no?

01-01-11
I always say I'm making a big comeback and whatnot. Is it true? Not really.
Well it's, indeed, a new year. What did I do on my first day? A whole lot of nothing.
I woke up late (1:24 PM to be exact). Then I had some leftovers from last night's dinner. And then hung out at home watching different movies. Ugh, not a very productive day. Unless you count hunting the internet for cool pictures to go into several of my inspiration folders. And I think I'll count that, so scratch what I said before, the first day was a productive day.
I think I started/ended the year right/wrong. Both options for either. I had to work on Friday and I was only scheduled to work about six hours. But then I was asked to stay because someone was not going to show up, so I ended up working around 10 hours. Yeah, I ended the year off right!
I ended wrong because I got sick. I started losing my voice for some odd reason. I'm guessing it was a combination of being in the cold at work (working both drive-thru windows) and drinking cold beverages. I'm guessing I might be coming down with the flu. I just hope it comes and goes by the time I start school because being sick in class is not very pretty. This is the same reason why I said I started the year off wrong. But not my fault, right? I can barely talk. Let alone sing, and I love to sing.
I set some resolutions (in my head because on paper I would've felt compromised. Smart, right? I know). And I want to start doodling, or creating at least something nice everyday. Today I waited until it was very late and only doodled a fishie that I saw on a Tom & Jerry cartoon.
I usually try to copy what I see. I'll work on developing my own style later. Haha.
Oh well. Time for bed. Well, trying. :/

Back in Action
For tonight, thus far. I've been a little too busy with homework. I know, even though this was the first week of classes I already have homework and projects. I had a quiz today! My third day! Wow. But that's what we're here for. For our education, not to be wasting time.
At any rate, I think I'm going to summarize this month and the bit of August I forgot to talk about.
Tuesday 24th we all moved in. We spent the day trying to set up our own rooms, unpack, and also set up the living room and dining room. They're both really small but they work; they serve their purpose. The following days up to Friday afternoon we went around shopping for food and some house necessities. I feel like we didn't spend much since we shared the cost of everything.
Friday night was my fraternity's party. I guess it was just a way to kick off the year. They hosted it where their new house is. I'm hoping we can keep it throughout the years because it's huge and super nice. There were people everywhere! And alcohol couldn't avoid being there either.
Monday August 30th was our first day of classes. I only had two to attend to: Japanese and Calculus. I was looking tragic because I didn't want to waste an outfit: I was wearing jeans and a random gray shirt. But I still enjoyed myself and got back in action.
Tuesday I had five classes and that's when I decided to actually try and look good. So I put on the brand new shirt my roommate's mom sent me. It's pretty cute. And I put on some new tighter-than-I-usually-wear jeans. My brand new shoes were also enjoying the long walks. I looked good, hehe. I was complimented all day long that's why I'm so sure. I especially picked this day to dress nice because that's when a lot of people would see me and also my interior design courses are on this day; it's always a competition.
Today! Wednesday. I went to my Japanese expecting my quiz. I think I will be getting one thing wrong because I put "happy" instead of "glad." There is a difference. But oh well. I have another Japanese quiz on Friday, I'm sure I'll do fine. I also went and shipped a book to Cali then went to the library to research Walter Gropius. Yup.
Right now I'm just sitting taking a break because I have lots to do. Actually, I should get back to my pile of books.
