Nyeh. Life is looking good, except that I'm overworked. Damnit, I don't want to work until three in the morning!
Working takes time, less time means I see less of my boyfriend and all of my friends.
Part of me wishes I would be going back to school too, but in a way I'm happy I'm not. I miss the people in school, I miss the discussions and the fun parts. Then I remember the reasons why I skipped about 60% of classes with the exception of drama classes, how hard it is for me to do homework and projects and how much of a failure I feel from school. Compare that to work, where I get a lot of positive feedback, people saying good job even though I've done nothing out of the ordinary (sure, they have to say that, but still!) and how satisfied I feel with myself after managing a tough shift, it's worth it.
September's schedule looks a lot better then August as well, much more free time.

On the plus side, these weird hours means I'll only exit the house for days in a row to go to work, which means a lot of computer time, which means art. I've got a lot of projects to work on, most of them being writing but some art things too.

And there we go!
I've got a new computer, elements is working again and all I've gotta do is install my tablet!

...and of course transfer all my pictures from my old computer to the new one. But still, it's not that difficult. I should be up and drawing again by next week!

My trial version of elements ran out a few days ago and since my cd isn't working I'm without drawing for the moment. I'm getting to borrow the Elements cd from a friend though, who doesn't like the program.

I'm actually looking forward to school ending. I like the fact that once I start working, there won't be such a thing as homework. On the other hand, I really have to get my CV out there because I don't want to stay where I am. This summer, I'm gonna be working until three in the morning like a mad-man apparently.

On brighter sides of life, summer vacation plans are now nearly fixed. The weekend I graduate there's a mini-convention I'm going to, then I'm off work for a week but then I've got to work my ass off because I need the money in July. I'm also gonna work, work, work in the beginning of July. Then comes my vacation, if I've gotten permission granted for it. The 24th of July we're going to London, and we come home on the 27th. Ticket's paid for already and accomodations are fixed.
When we come home I'm going to sleep for a night and then it's EuroPride in Stockholm for a week. After that, I'm either going to the medieval week on Gotland or I'm just having the week off, haven't decided yet, but on the weekend I'm going to Närcon in Örebro. If I do both or not depends on my economic status.

After that, I'll be working, and after August I'll work either full or half time until the end of the year. I'm gonna fix my grades this spring.

Creatively, this means a lack of homework, thus a probable increase in art. If anyone really cared xP

I'm not really sure what to say. Everything breaks down, I have a million things I HAVE to do and I'm graduating with failed grades and I won't actually be graduating at all and I'm lonely and I miss him and I can't get a proper grip of myself, I'm sort of just floating, I haven't been to school for almost two weeks by now.

On the other hand, I met Tom McRae. I talked to him. I laughed with him. I sang with him. He is a god.
It's also partially my fault his friends most likely teased him all the way to Gothenburg.

After a long, long time, my tablet is finally back in business. Not because there's been anything wrong with my tablet, but my computer. And I've gotten PS Elements going, which is AWESOME.

Also, I won a writing contest in school, one of my poems, and got 500 at an online bookstore. I found ten books for exactly 500 so I'm happy.

Back to drawing. I've got school (rehearsals) and work until two tonight.
