I'm going to write an overview of many things in this journal...

I moved about a month ago down to Huntginton Beach to live with Channel Cat. It has its plus and minuses, but I'd have to be honest and say that I'm really home sick. Otherwise it's pretty fun down here. I do a lot more socializing and many more events occur down here than when I was living at home. It does still feel really awkward living with parents other than my own, etc.

School is pretty cool. I'm taking Japanese with Mike, Sculpture, Human Anatomy for the Artist, and 2D Design. I love my Sculpture class, it's a lot of fun. I'm currently working on a bas relief clown fish sculpture. Human Anatomy is great too because I can already see a lot of improvement in my work.. 2D design is just..dumb. I hate that class. xD Japanese is cool since I'm with Mike and our friend Alex, but like it's all review for me right now so it's a little boring...

I haven't been around much or doing much (especially commissions) because of how filling my college schedule is... Monday/Wednesdays I leave home around 11am and get home around 11pm. D= 12 hours at school, and by the time I get home I'm too tired to do anything... Tuesday/Thursdays are a lot more easier, but still tiring... I leave at 3pm and get home around 8pm. My classes don't really last that long, but I don't have my license yet so I have to take the bus.. and the bus only comes once an hour. =_=''

So in terms of commissions I'm working on them slowly so don't be alarmed. Currently working on Leondra's, which I'm in the process of shading at the moment. If you want to see when I'll be working on your's go to my user page and look at the commission list.. I'm trying to do them in order.

Now, about Google's new browser - Chrome. I've been using it since the first day it released. Do I like it? For the most part it's cool, but I miss Firefox. I'd use Firefox over Chrome any day, but Firefox crashes on me spontaneously and it's a real bugger.. (It can happen as soon as I open Firefox or after a couple minutes of browsing) Another thing I somewhat dislike about Chrome is the downloads.. Your download is anchored to the tab it was accessed in.. and you can open the download list, but that just looks so... poopie.. Lol Also.. SheezyArt's updates are completely messed up. All my updates are scrambled, timestamp wise.. =( So I don't know when things are submitted..which is why I haven't been commenting on stuff...

As for Disneyland.. I went with Mike to Disneyland yesterday for our fifth anniversary to go dining at the Blue Bayou. The food there was really good. I had a mix of seafood, chicken, and rice. It was very tomato-y, but it was delicious... The highlight of our trip was when we went on Star Tours, if anyone's been on it... It's a virtual tour to the Endor moon, etc., but your tour completely misses the moon and goes to the Death Star or whatever... Basically half way through the ride, the sound cut out. Everyone was silent for a moment, like.. "what?" But then suddenly a little kid in the background started going "pew pew pew!" and the next thing I know, everyone is making sound effects to go with the ride! It was friggin' hilarious! I wish I had filmed it, man!

Last thing I've got to say is, since the time I've moved into here Mike and I have established two aquariums in my room: one freshwater and one saltwater. :] They're pretty cool. The freshwater tank is 10gallons, and the saltwater one is 20gallons. The freshwater tank has some driftwood, a variety of vegetation, two zebra danios, two tiger barbs, three baby guppies, a crab, a dwarf puffer, and an algae eater. The saltwater aquarium consists of about 5-10 gallons of living rock, two blue damselfish, a purple..something (I forgot its name), a clown fish, and one coral.

So that's all I've got to say for now... Moo.

College messes with your life, yeah. I got EXTREMELY LIKE HOLY-SHIT lucky this semester with getting four classes in at 3 days a week, about 5.5 hours of school each of those days and an online class. Unforunately, it takes an hour to get home in traffic and the commute is punching a hole in my savings.

Also, you might want to double-check your site. I get a 404 - Not Found error when I try to go to vensy.net.

Oh... gawd... the Star Wars ride thing. D: 'kay, srsly, don't go on it after you've just gone on the childish Tea Cups ride and have been spun around 100x faster than it's normally supposed to go (I blame it on my sister's boyfriend. ) We all felt extremely sick afterwards, and I think we avoided looking at the screen at some points because we felt we were going to throw up. Oh man. Haha. Glad you're have a good time, though, nonetheless. 8D

Vensy? Could you help me out? I'm thinking of going into becoming a comic illustrator, but I have no idea what I should be taking for that. o_o We have computer animation classes at my school, but they're all 3D ones, but I suck at 3D and would rather learn 2D animation. D: Aww man, I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I can't just take artsy-artsy classes because I want to be drawing with my style, not go into realism/drawing bowls of fruit and naked ladies. *Scratches head* ._.;

Wow. Talk about being super busy. If you're super home sick, you should visit your folks once in a while. Maybe every 2 weeks. Maybe that will lower your home sickness.
