Abyssal Refuge

I just got back from San Francisco again. It was a nice day - I'll be blogging about it later. But time is so, so limited... The things I really want to record in blog posts are piling up fast, and I just don't even have time for this. lol I may actually resort to podcasting a lot of them just to get them done, because I record a lot of what I do for personal sanity. Kind of like a: Yes, I did this, it was significant, and now it will always be remembered even though its impact will fade in my mind under the pressure of everything else I'm going through. It's my boyfriend's birthday today...I hardly have time to do anything for him. I couldn't do art for him this year, I hardly have time to Skype with him (long distance relationship), I hardly have money to buy him anything... I sent him a letter. Not sure it'll get there in time. It's just frustrating. Upon getting home tonight, I learned of at least 4 other major tasks I need to accomplish in addit

I'm having a real hard time concentrating on homework right now. Just need to pull back and do something else to regroup. There's a whole list of things I need to blog about, but let's do one I've intended to since February. 5 years in a row now, I've dressed up in some way or another and headed to an alley of cherry blossom trees in mid to late February for a photoshoot. This will be my last one here as I'm moving away from California this summer, but God knows I'll probably find some other place to do it next year. :] This was my first year doing it by myself. In previous years, I've always had a friend or two tag along, but I was okay being alone this time. My tripod kept me company. ^^ This was a test shot, but I ended up really liking it. :P Aaand, I also was able to use these to make my graduation announcements so my mom would stop bugging me about it. :P I'm not even gonna put on a cap and gown and
