So everyone, how's your summer been? Mines been crazy!!! Obviously my drawing pledge failed horribly, but after a bit of time of aimless direction earlier this summer I finally have direction and I am working on changing my life around in a very good way.

1st off, you all may have noticed I haven't really been posting much, well I cannot promise that that will change anytime soon but I assure you all that I am working on art things. (Not that many of you all give a flying fuck, hahaha)

BUT I am working on a BIG, BIG project that I cannot talk really much about but I can tell you that it is art related, making me money, and teaching me a bunch. I'm having so much fun and it's really re-energized me artistically and motivationally.

2nd, I am going back to school this fall and taking some awesome classes here is the list:

Graphic Design: I think this is going to be a good thing for me, especially since it will help me out big time with my current project.

Color Theory: I've been waiting to take a class like this for years, awesome.

Adobe Flash: Taking this online b/c I learned that I can do these adobe classes in a week so there really is no reason to fill up a schedule with a class I won't attend. Gonna rock the face off of this one.

Beginning Weight Training: That's right, I'm making a pointed effort to get in shape. Actual shape and get rid of all that fast food I've been munching on.

Bowling: Hahaha, I needed another wellness credit and this fit well with the rest of my schedule and sounded like fun.

last but not least;

LIFE DRAWING: I am a lucky mo-fo for getting into this class, I am SO PUMPED to get drawing and really getting to learn the human form. Even if that human form is a fat, elderly man. (Guh...)

and in medical news I'm ADHD, I'm going in Thursday fora trial prescription of medication. I've already "experimented" with what they will be giving me and let me tell you it is nice. I can finally focus things without getting distracted and it really helps with my stress levels. I'm really looking forward to see how this will change my school career b/c the biggest problem I had last year was focus. All year I struggled with it and now that I have an opportunity to treat and hopefully eliminate the need for medication while teaching myself to really work. I'm excited.

Also, yeah belegarth (Medieval Combat with foam weapons) is going awesome. I've been having a blast and getting to know some life-long friends that are rapidly becoming some of the best I have. It's awesome.

um... that is really pretty much it at this point... OH.

My step-mother has filed for a divorce with my father, this is amazing. Anyone of you folks that have known me in the past 5 years knows how awesome this is for me.

Have a good night everyone and keep in touch.

P.S. On a sad note :iconadamwithers: and :iconcomfortlove: are moving away in one month and that will mark the end of a fantastic 2 years of learning. Without them I would not be at the artistic level I am now and would not have any direction for my life. So, if any of you haven't stopped by their pages or checked out their comic (First issue is FREE) please do me a favor and check 'em out. It would mean a ton to me.
