It hit me today that the year is half over, that in a matter of months I'll be saying farewell and moving off to college, alone. I will miss my family here and my friends-if that's what you would call them- but there will also be things I won't miss. I won't miss that dark part of childhood and those memories etched on each familiar road, I wont miss the bullies and having to run into people that I wish I never had to see again. Of course, I know that in my future there will only be more bullies, more bad memories and bad people, but the difference between the past and what lies ahead for me is how I handle it. I am stronger now, and I'm gonna kick ass (not literally, I hope). I've made the decision to change my route in life and its going to be great. Even through more hardships and obstacles, I'm gonna succeed!

I want to create a piece of art that can represent all of the sadness I feel. Its been hard to draw lately because I've been working a lot. The only positive thing is that I'm making more money for college this way.
I'm watching Snowflower and the Secret fan and I can't help but think of how much friends mean to me, especially the ones that I lose so easily. I feel like Nina does when her best friend, her Laotong, abandons her for a man she's hardly known for months. I feel like I've lost something very important. Well, I have.

I hope to post some work on here soon! Everyone take care!

The year is almost half over already! Just a few more months and Ill be at SCAD.
Ive been so inactive on here, mainly because my computer broke and Im unable to scan any of my work! Maybe soon I can upload work that wasnt captured by my cellphone.

So I've already stated that I've been accepted into SCAD. Awesome, right? Of course! However, there is a minor setback: the $40,000 a year to attend! There's no way I'm taking out a shit load of loans. I wanted to cry when I found out. There was no way I could go... BUT! I called the admission office and BAM! She told me that based on my transcript and resume alone, I had already racked up a huge $20,000 a year in scholarships and grants! That's more than half of SCAD paid for! Everyone always made fun of me in high school for studying and getting the grades, but it looks like it finally paid off! (Literally!!!)
I finished my portfolio today and its ready for submission. If I'm lucky, I'll scrape up some more scholarship money! I want to go to this school more than anything, and I'm determined to find a way to get there!

I recently became a cashier at work. Its tough, much harder than my previous job there. The only pro is that instead of my dorky uniform, I actually get to wear normal-people clothes. YEAH!!!

So... when did my pants get too big? I think its when I started eating green beans like a motherf***er and drinking water twice as much as before... and the 100+ crunches I've been doing everyday. I've set a goal for myself, and its definitely working!

God, I need to get a life....

I woke up this morning to the wonderful news that I've been accepted into my dream school, SCAD!!!! It took about 2 months from the time I decided I wanted to go until now, but I'm so happy that I've completed this step into my life, and I'm thoroughly excited to attend in September of this year. WHOO!!!
