1. Post these rules.
2. Each tagged person must post 10 things about themselves on their journal.
3. At the end, you have to choose and tag people and post their icons on the same journal.
4. Go to their pages and send a message saying you tagged them.
5. No tag-backs.

Ten things about me
1. I’m attending the school I’ve wanted to go to since I was in fifth grade. I didn’t even research another school. Well, okay, there was that one. PTI. But we won’t talk about that monstrosity.
2. Finals aren’t half as bad as I expected, and once my teachers return all of my big projects, you’ll all get a very heavy dose of the work I’ve produced over the last quarter – eleven weeks. I’ll try and compile them so I don’t flood any inboxes.
3. I absolutely adore my girlfriend. It’s nice to actually be able to be open about it – hold hands as we walk down the street. Haha, just last night we were acting like we were attending a ball, and I had my arm tucked underneathe hers. Unfortunately my monthly issues started two weeks early, so I suffer. V_v
4. I am Victoria – 18, completely free, completely indebt, but completely happy.
5. I’m going to attempt to get a job in caricature next quarter, having wanted to make it through my first without one to get used to the lifestyle. It’s a good job, too, seeing as I get paid $75 for the first hour, and $50 for each additional hour. Haha, way to get loaded easily.
6. I’m annoyingly motherly, as my roommates must be thinking. It drives me crazy when they can’t take this Institute seriously. It’s not high school, and projects take a lot of dedication, not two hours the morning before it’s due. –glares-
7. Olivia, my one roommate, is so opptomistic I think she shits rainbows and bunnies. Right now she’s playing various songs on her guitar, with that heavenly voice of hers. You should see her face when I say that. Haha.
8. I’ve made more friends in the last month than I ever imagined I’d have in high school. And they’re all amazing. Not to mention more and more all the time. Gotta make connections with the big animators. Ubisoft, Pixar, listen for the thunder, cause I’m on my way.
9. I need money. DX
10. I miss writing. I haven’t written a single paragraph since I had to leave one of my closest online friends to attend the city lifestyle. I could slice a persons throat with words, make them weep, make them laugh. Damn. XD

TEN things you wish you could say to TEN different people right now:
10. I love you. :heart:
9. No, I’m not sitting on my ass like you, lazing around all the time, I’m doing the dishes every goddamned day. You’re getting dirty dishes in your stocking, I swear.
8. SHEVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
7. Albeit we spent very little time together, you’ll still be one of my most trusted friends. Even though you make me so frustrated some times. Argh. XD
6. Go away, I hate you, you stupid, stupid white particles of hatred.
5. Fuck dishes.
4. You like my big gun? Yeah. You do.
3. Sorry I’m so emotional all the time, and that we barely have time to be intimate. Hatred to school life.
2. Rest in Peace. Although I barely knew you, I know you meant a lot to my family.
1. Bom shalakalaka boom.

EIGHT ways to win your heart:

1. Amanda
2. The smell of basements, old wooden objects, and garages. I think I even like the smell of sewage on the corner of Ross and First…
3. Amanda
4. Tea.
5. Amanda
6. Tea
7. Amanda
8. Did I say Tea and Amanda…?

SEVEN things that cross your mind a lot:

1. Can I do this? Can I handle this market?
2. Will I get a job?
3. My girlfriend, of course. Do I make her happy? Am I too annoying? Etcetera. :heart:
4. PEGASUS! PLEASE DON’T GOOOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO –weeps-
5. Do they have their homework done?
6. I hate people who can’t appreciate their life as it is, when so many others have it worse than them.
7. People shouldn’t judge something until they’ve read, watched, or experienced it.

FIVE people who mean a lot at the moment:

1. :iconthegrimhound:
2. :iconataria:
3. :icontwilight-zero:
4. Sarah
5. Olivia, Lin, Devon, Brandon, Issac – everyone. You’re all amazing.


FIVE songs that you listen to often lately:

1. Paul Cardall - Redeemer
2. Arcade Fire – Wake Up
3. Lady Gaga – Bad Romance and Paparazzi
4. Mindless Self Indulgence – Shut Me Up
5. After Midnight Project – The Criminal
Amongst hundreds of others.



No one to specificially tag, because I know if I do none of them will do it. So if you want to do it, do it. XD

It's Not Easy

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 17, 2009, 4:27 AM


I've heard enough whining about how art students have it easy. You think your college is hard? No. Trust me. You get to sit down and study a book, memorize some information, maybe have a bit of talent in your subject. But WE have to spend hours upon hours just pulling ideas from our head, rendering our thoughts onto paper. I'm not saying regular college is easy. I wouldn't know. But we're not having a picnic and going out smoking weed like irresponsible little children. I personally have four studio classes, and can tell you, no lie, that my finals coming up in a few weeks are going to be absolute hell.

Lets look.

A complete self-portrait reflected in a mirror for drawing.
A complete rendering of a scene in pittsburgh, not counting the huge one point perspective interior of a surreal room.
Whatever Fundamentals of Design throws at me.
And both an image painted in black and white, original color, and arbitrary color.
This doesn't count my Freshman Studies and Computer Literacy classes.

So, I don't like bitching, trust me. But shut the fuck up when you whine about how we're having a party up here. Because I assure you, everything that you see around you is due to the lack of sleep by one of US.

One last time

Thu Sep 24, 2009, 9:16 AM
I might be losing my internet tomorrow, and the pageviews are going a little slower than last time. S'okay. My mother doesn't want to pay the internet bill next month, so she's getting it shut off, and I'm not sure if the wireless internet I'm magically getting will vanish as well. So, just as a precaution, I'll put this up. I've got less than one week left until I head off to Pittsburgh, and my new life. I'll have established wireless there, so I'll be back then.

But, if you do catch 9000, please tell me so I can get you a gift. Thanks. <3

Also, if anyone sees Flashforward tonight, tell me how it is. I can't watch it, damnit. =\

IT'S OVER 9000!!!!!one!!!!one!!

lol, okay, maybe not yet, but hey. Well, I've been getting pageviews out the butt recently, and I figured since I've got two weeks left, and I'll reach 9000 before then, I'll try and fit in one more drawing for personal pleasure. So anyone who catches it can have whatever they want, and I'll do my best with my non-college skills to get it to you. <3

Today

Forget the drama. Forget your pain. Forget everything. Stand from your seat and remember. With just a moment of thought, or silence for the men and women who died on this date, you succeed in not letting them become just numbers in the history of America. I salute those innocent lives who did not deserve to be ended, but who also united our country in a way that some thought impossible. Thank you.
