Froid du vent

OY! I cannot believe how cold I am. Alright... yes I can because it appears I am always this cold. Even a corpse is warmer than me I am sure...

Well my body is back to its ol' self again. The aches that pained me have diminished and gone entirely after only a few days. It still troubles me that I do not know what the exact cause was from. Oh wells I guess I should just be happy that I am no longer in pain.

Ugh I have so much I need to do tomorrow. Hand in applications, call the vet, look up grants, etc... I still also have to get homework done. My first day of class was on Monday and it went alright. We just do the silly introductions:

"Hello everyone! My name is Patricia. My major is Graphic Design, and I am taking this class because blah blah...My favorite animal(s) are the Fennec Fox and Swans..."

I honestly do not know why my professor had us state our favorite animal but it did turn out some interesting results. We found out though one girl was working on becoming a journalist she really wanted to be a mortician o.o and also her favorite animal was H.P. Lovecraft's "Cthulhu".

He is sort of cute I guess... :P

Another interesting thing that happened is that I saw a very old friend. My very first friend actually. When I moved up here 9 years ago I left her and my other best friend behind and was very saddened. We were like the Three Musketeers. In the beginning we remained in touch via phone and the occasional visit but eventually it was hard to get a hold of her. Each time I called she was "busy" and so we spoke for just a few minutes. It really hurt me that I had been forgotten. After a year or two of feeling very depressed and alone I sent her a letter explaining how hurt I was. I got a phone call from her a short time later where she explained she was sorry and she loved me and we would always be friends. We scheduled a day to get together and had a great day. Alas, shortly after that I was once again brushed under the rug...

Seeing her there was like a dream. It just did not seem real. She looked at me and her eyes grew wide. "Oh my God" escaped her lips and she hugged me. She was so excited to see me and I was happy to see her as well. However, it felt awkward. As much as I loved her I hated her for making me cry endlessly many times over many years... And now I get to see her every Monday and Wednesday for a few months in which after she will forget all about me again...

Now it is just me...

Though it seems I have a pencil in my hand everyday, it feels like I have very little to show for. I have so many ideas but I just cannot seem to pick which one I want to get down on paper. There is progress though and as long as I stay positive I will improve and create more!!! However, before that I better finish my homework tehehehe!


Updated work in progress of "Tinsel"...I still have a great deal of shading left to do.
