I'm gonna see Ed Byrne at the Caird Hall on the 3rd! XD woo!
ok, his stand-up isn't the greatest, but come ooon, it's ed byrne, he's fab! XD
i've never gone to see like a proper comedian in a proper venue before. i saw Dave Gorman do our Union but that was like a charity gig for us poor students, lol.
anyways this journal would be longer but, well i'm hungry see ya later everybody

A FEW HOURS LATER:
ah, hello again. i've just been speaking to my friend nikita and we're going to share a craft stall in carnoustie on the 5th. it's from ten til two at the old kinloch primary school or something, feel free to pop along if you're in the area. i was at a good lecture today by a lovely old man called brian miller. one of his older pieces inspired me and i'm seeing if nikita will collaborate with me on making a glass and wire mobile for selling at our stall. there's a little drawing in my scraps, but it'll get deleted once she gives her opinion most likely so go look now if you want to. go go go! lol.

hm, what else. oh yeah, adrianna's birthday, i could use some help here: i have a dress i've been dying to wear but i'm not sure it's special enough. how is everyone else dressing? are you gonna be uber glitzy in formal dresses and kilts or are you just wearing nice things? i wanna know if i have to break out the glittery dress and sparkly shoes or if my flouncey summer dress with some sequinned accessories, maybe a shawl, fancy tights and comfortable heels will do. i can live with being overdressed but underdressed bugs me.

and yes, i STILL have my favourites competition stuff, various memes, and prizes from my previous journal to do. unless you haven't noticed, i've barely been drawing. i guess my minds just elsewhere with all my uni stuff to complete this month. some of my projects proved far too ambitious and frankly haven't turned out that great, but hey, i tried.

i haveto go deal with some uni stuff tomorrow. i bought two 4gig discs from the college shop but neither have worked on my computer and i would rather not have to spend that much money again. i'm gonna see if they can re-emburse me for at least one. i swear the bloody things don't work at all. i tried them in various computers. i'm guessing there's some compatability problem. the college all use macs so it's possible. if they can see way to giving me one for free and it works on a mac, then i will be happy enough. if it still does't work i'm just gonna ask for a refund and buy them elsewhere. bah.

i'm really getting bored of my uni work. sure it's all my own ideas and my own thing but my GOD it gets tedious. i think this is the first time i've been fed up of self-motivated practise, and actually looking forward to the holidays just so i don't have to work anymore. usually i'm like 'yay, holidays, i can draw and do my own work' but now i'm like 'lease just let us break for christmas so i can lie in bed all day and not use my brain for weeks at a time' and you know what, if i had a mini fridge i'd totally do that. i'm not worried or complaining, it's just the first time i've wanted a break from my own ideas. i'm guesing though that everyone has felt like that at some point, especially close to the holidays

anyways i am totally ranting, god you must be bored if you made it all the way down here. better get some sleep. so long all x

War Dream (second draft in msc. fiction folder in my gallery)
despite being possibly my worst nightmare to date, in which my friends were fighting in a war and blair wanted to kill me very a lot, the characters are pretty bad-ass and i actually enjoy reading it. i want to re-draft it and cut it up into more manageable sections

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wishlist:

no pressure, but if anyone EVER did buy me anything, don't spend too much, and mugs and mousemats where available would be cool


To Do List:

- THE STUFF I'VE PROMISED PEOPLE! 0_0 aagh must get moving!

- characters objecting to swimsuit calendar idea- lol

- bad dream- i had a WIERD ass dream a few years ago that i'd like to illustrate. it was really wierd, like fish poison and robin with dihorrea wierd 0.o
