Despair.nu, School, Blah blah blah.

Well if you’re a member at Despair.nu you may or may not have noticed that it is on a sort of hiatus until I can figure and fix some things. I love the idea of finding new blogs through the current system but it is in fact flawed (even beyond the countless hours), so we’ll see where things go. I have some ideas up my sleeve so we’ll see what happens :) I appreciate the offers for help – you may hear from me soon about it!

Classes ended last week and this week is finals, and since I am an art student and don’t have finals I was done last week and it’s nice. I’ll be taking 3D Foundations starting May 11th but it only last 6 weeks, which is nice and then I’ll have the rest of the summer off :D I also opened a new blog, I opened a WoW related blog called Looking For Group. I also have a nice collection of art projects so when I go in mid May I’ll take photos of some of them with my mother’s digital camera and post them (my old digital camera is not working and I can not find my new one! I think I lost it at home or someting :().

Speaking of art, I will also be working on an art journal throughour the summer. I bought a cute spiral journal today at work along wit some paints and pens :) I figured this would keep my creative juices flowing! What are your plans over the summer? Taking classes, traveling anywhere, etc? August 5th my friends and I will be leaving this shitty ass apartment and I CAN NOT WAIT. I hate this place, in the two years we have lived here it has gotten worse. I’ll be living with just Becca in a 2 bedroom 2 bath apartment but we can not move in until August 18th, I am counting down the days.


Coming To An End

Spring semester is coming to an end and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t SUPER excitied. Although I enjoyed my first semester as an official art student I am so ready for a break. I kept meaning to blog but with art projects, work, and spending time with friends and famiy (went home for Easter, had a blast! My nephew is 6 months old now and getting so big! Last time I saw him he was only 3 months. My boyfriend came with me and met my family, which went well). I also have a new idea for a layout but I am waiting to work on it until classes end Wednesday, so I don’t distract myself any futher :P

I also finally hit the max leve in WoW, 80. Which is nice. *quits* … now that would suck. In other news, I am taking 3D foundations over the summer which starts May 11th and ends June 19th or so. In August I am moving out of my current apartment and going home for a few weeks until I can move into my new place with Becca on August 18th, so excited to go home for that long! After classes I’ll spend most of my time working as well. I’m so happy to be leaving my current apartment, the office is crap, the guys below are always loud and me and my friends are just sick of it!

I’ve been rethinking about what I want to do with Despair.nu, it expires in Novemember and even though I do not want to I may just let it die. I am not as into the site as I was when it first started and neither are the members, which I know is partically my fault. I am still not positive though, however, I will back up the entire script and maybe open something similar in the future. Drawing class is starting soon so I suppose I should stop. I am hoping to over the summer work on this site more, I thought of moving my personal site to a new domain because of how expensive .nu’s are but as long as they don’t go up on price anymore I should be fine :P Plus I love this domain name! What are your plans over break? I’d love to go to the beach as well at some point, just to relax and enjoy myself (and bring my dog with me when I go home!).

Edit: Despair may not be dying after all :) Going to brainstorm some ideas with others and see what we can come up with! But may have to close it until then though, we’ll see.
