I just spent the last two hours designing floor plans for my very first Interior's project! I am so stoked right now and I am glad to be able to say this is the one class that I can't wait to go home and work on my homework for! It's not even due for a week and I've already begun working on it! For me this is quite a shocking phenomenon.

On a slighly more disappointing note; I ate about half of a large ziploc bag of puppy chow tonight (along with the help of a friend of course!). It was one of those situations where I didn't really have control over my hand as it reached down and put another handful of deliciously unhealthy food into mymouth. What is a girl to do? ...The only thing that saved me from this tragic deed was the wisdom of these words: Out of sight, out of mind.

Well, I should learn that the later I go to bed, the easier it is for me to ignore my alarm. For that reason, I am off to bed.
Tabi love long time

So, I've had the most incredible day so far! Let me share with you....

This morning, unfortunately, I woke up at 8:06 for my 8:00 a.m. class. I weighed my opportunity cost and decided agaist walking in 20 or 30 minutes late. I had a lot of stuff to catch up on so I figured I would utilize my extra couple of hours. After lollygagging for awhile, getting ready, etc. I rented out a digital camera from the library for a project I am working on in my Digital Imaging class. (The one I missed this morning.) Hey, it totally counts that I worked out my project outside of class right??? Anyway...

For my project I am photoshopping three posters that represent a surreal story, anything I want to portray. My idea started with a "candy-land" theme and has morphed into this hilariuos juxtaposition of showing "candy-people" do various everyday activities. I.E. A candy person sitting in a dentist chair is going to be one of my posters. So for my out of class work this morning I stopped by a dentist office in Menomonie to see if they would let me take a picture of one of their dentist rooms.

Amazingly enough, the owner (?) upon realizing that I am an art student at Stout asked if I'd like to design a Smile Book for their office. He is looking for something more interesting than the simple before/after smile pictures and is paying me to design such a book! I was absolutely ecstatic!

I think it may have made up for the disappointment of missing class this morning.....maybe?

So, it's about time I post a new blog. This will be just a quick update of what has happened over the past couple of weeks; hopefully I will be able to update in more detail a little later.
- I now consider myself a "Raw Dealer"
Def: one who has a helpless addiction to coffee and visits the Raw Deal on a daily basis to curb their caffiene and coffee shop cravings. Usually known by name by all the barista's/employees.
- Classes started last week; including my Interiors I class. Not much to say about this other than, it's class; there's homework, quizzes, projects, deadlines and procrastination.
- I am now waitressing at Zanzibar restaurant and loving it. (Even though I've only worked three times, it's amazing.) ps-if you ever want to try some rediculously good martini's, like Key Lime Martini- which I haven't tried, but people keep ordering and I really want to- you should stop in!

It's time for some burracho's nachos! hehe
Peace
