Rollin' With the Homies

Today I realized how much I need it to be summertime. I don't know if I can take three more weeks of school plus finals. There are four things that take up the majority of my time: work, school, friends and sleep. On a good week I can successfully manage three out of the four but my downfall is that I have to go to work because i don't want to get fired, I can't say no to my friends and I'll be damned if I don't get a full night's sleep or at least a cozy nap. What does that leave? Oh yeah, school.

Now, I have always loved school. I am Rory Gilmore when it comes to loving school but when the spring semester rolls around and the weather starts becoming wonderful, all I want to do is NOT be in class and NOT doing homework. I am burned out. The Mexico City trip burned me out! I have so many projects to still complete that I really do want to do but I just can't find the motivation to do them.

For example, I have really cool projects for both my photo and my design classes but again, no time and no motivation. I have an excellent opportunity to make another kick ass piece for my portfolio but I'm screwing it up as we speak because I, of course, find it more amusing to write a blog post at 1a.m. the morning it is due.

There are other things wrong with me too but I will save the all juicy details for when I'm super drunk and accidentally tell the world I'm......

haha, you'll just have to wait.

Vectors Make Me Happy

So here is the new and improved vectorized Megan Hamilton!
It took forever and I am sort of happy with it. This definitely took a toll on my patience. It is quite noticeable in my lack of finesse with the pen tool. I could have made things smoother but hey, who has the time to do that. I am just glad that I finished. Oh yeah, this is me on the airplane to Chicago. I was super lucky to get an entire row all to myself. Woohoo!

Apples and Oranges

So I hear that APPLEs are really good for you. After all, an APPLE a day keeps the doctor away. No wonder kids are always putting APPLEs on their teachers' desks. It must make them really smart, eating all those APPLEs. Those students probably become the APPLE of their eyes. The bad students in the class are no where near those who give their teachers APPLEs. It would be like comparing APPLEs to oranges. And no one wants to be an orange. Hmm, maybe I should be an APPLE. Everyone loves APPLEs so there is no reason not to be. Hopefully, the Stanford APPLE tree will decide to grow a new APPLE crop in the next month. You can't have too many APPLEs :D
