Busy busy busy

This that time of the year again when school is in crunch mode. Wednesday I was at the school from 8 am till after 11 pm. Once I got home though, I wasn't even able to get to bed. I had to take my nightly bath and then finish laying out my graphic design project that was due the next morning. *groan* That was such an exhausting day!! The good news is I got the project done, the not so good news is I wasn't completely happy with it. But I guess it will have to do for now. I also had a graphic history test that morning. I was having trouble concentrating and keeping my mind and eyes from fogging over. I'll try to post a picture of the project at a later time. The one above is just one of the many photos we took that night. Thank you Miranda *my sis in law* for being my model! If you want to view some more of the photos I took for the project, you can look at my flicker account and get an idea of what some of it looked like. http://www.flickr.com/photos/brownhairedpookie/

My drawing class is not so bad. I was really freaked about it in the beginning, but I'm actually enjoying it now. I have been practicing and I can really tell I have gotten better. I still have alot to learn, but with more practice, time and patience, I will improve even more, I'm sure of it.

My friend Janie has been discussing dream journaling on her blog *she's in my link list if you want to check it out*. I used to journal all the time. Not just about dreams though. I think its a wonderful thing to do, although I have not done it hardly at all in the last fews years, tsk tsk. I journaled alot when I was going through tough times in life. My childhood and youth were tough, and I made some major mistakes in my life, but in the end, even those mistakes became and blessing to me in so many ways. It made me who I am, made me strong, and made me face life challenges head on. Without those hardships and trials, I would not be the strong woman I feel I am today. I would probably roll over and let everyone step on me. I'm a very giving person, caring, and passionate. That is a great thing, except when people take advantage of that. I don't mind helping people, until they hurt me. Once someone hurts me, you better step aside, because it isn't a pretty sight.....

Well i've bored everyone enough for now. I promise, I will try to write here more often! *and post more images*
