I'm just waiting to be done with this semester.  I feel like it's dragged on forever and a half, already. But then again, that means I'll be that much closer to the next two semesters, which require recitals...  Not looking forward to those. I haven't been drawing much lately (at least, in comparison to a few years ago) for a number of reasons, so I feel like I've been neglecting dA. (Also, I don't have any software other than OpenCanvas.) I need to write more.  D:  I would be so happy if I could juggle school, work, and writing (publishpublishpublish!...?) at the same time. ~ Ika Also, Happy Thanksgiving, people!

*is trying out and playing around with the journal skin feature* Well...  Since I'm now out of school, I don't have access to a stable Internet connection (which in turn translates to me not being able to upload anything).  Sorry, guys.  If or when my parents shell out more moolah for something that lets me attach a .txt file to my emails, you'll know -- trust me.  (And why isn't the emoticon menu loading?  I can't change my "mood" thing.) And yes, I'm done with school.  It's slightly more anticlimactic than I had expected, mostly because my mom is not-so-subtly hinting that I'll become a bum if I don't continue with my education.  Blah. .
