Abyssal Refuge

Pulling one more all-nighter for a NIGHTMARE of a final exam at noon. Then I have two final critiques after that... Listening to songs like ... Light 'Em Up by Fall Out Boy, Never Close Your Eyes by Adam Lambert, and Wide Awake by Katy Perry... ARE YOU SEEING A TREND HERE...'CAUSE I AM. AND THAT SH*T IS ON REPEAT. x___________x *feels like death* I have a salad, airborne, cookies, and a cake next to me...and the icecream is on stand-by. CRAP! I forgot the green tea... *goes to make it* Good...now. WE GO HARDCORE TILL THE END 'CAUSE THAT'S HOW WE ROOOOLLL!!!! ~Uni

Just want to ramble for a moment to get away from work. Poor Facebook is feeling the effects of my uneasiness; I really do feel bad. It's Dead Week. That oh-so-ugly week before finals. There will be no sleeping. Not even my Dad is trying to get me to sleep this week. And he's always telling me to mind my health on every level. It's THAT serious. What I have left is to finish an Asian art research paper, a contemporary art quiz, final exam proposal, and BRUTAL final exam (prof's own words)...I have to finish my final 3D animation by Thursday this week, my final video documentary assignment by Wednesday, and my final senior video project by next week. My instructor also wants me to try and redo some audio on a project I just finished for reasons I'll mention at a later date. I plan to blog about everything that's been going on, but I don't even have time to do that right now. I actually need to go pull out my journal to record some more personal issues goi...

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 ...

So, I'm sitting here in the computer lab at school during Spring "Break"...which really isn't a break at all as I'm spending it catching up with all the work I couldn't do regularly. x_X Figured I'd blog as I work. This week I'm making two trips to the hospital for a lengthy physical regarding the job I'm testing for. They're doing extensive testing on things like my sight, hearing, heart, breathing, blood, dental, body fluids, and women's health stuff. So far so good! My eyes are pretty damn good, but, unfortunately, they aren't perfect. SO...I will have to wear my glasses on the job. It's a field that requires perfect vision no matter what. Glad I already have them so I don't have to buy new ones, and also glad I'm not going to be a pilot - they HAVE to get corrective surgery if they're not perfect already. ...But the glasses are still not something I'm looking forward to. I also found out I'm blood type O+. F...

My Contemporary Art History professor is requiring us to take a trip to San Francisco this semester and "raid" the Museum of Modern Art (a.k.a SFMoMA) to write a research paper on our favorite work there. So, that's what I did this past Saturday. SF is about a 2-hour drive from me, and I went with a fellow classmate and her two friends. We were required to visit every gallery in the building across 5 different floors. We had to take multiple photos of works in each gallery, and of ourselves...because she will not even grade our work if we don't have photo proof that we were there. x_x So, pretty much it was a given that we had to go with other people...not only because SF is a hell of a city to brave alone...but also so we could take each others' photos and what-not. We also had to sketch our favorite work, and keep a photo journal inside the actual museum. BUT...as a blogger, I'm naturally inclined to take more photos than necessary. :P We stopped in B...
