The comics are hilarious. I think I'll be on here all night.

And I totally agree with this one. [link] I thought the same thing.

Today I learned that people taking baby animals from their mother's unnecessarily really irks me. I found this out while taking a walk in the neighborhood park. It was expected from those that know me to see me thrilled when I saw the baby ducks. Spring time and they were finally here hopping and waddling like baby peeps.

Anyway, I found two kids down there with a net trying to catch one of the baby ducks. Which put the mother in a panic trying to lead all her babies away. And I said it loud enough that I hope they weren't trying to do what I thought they were. Little girl had the nerve to give me the evil eye.

No, I don't want to be on the 6 o'clock news for roughing up some kids over baby ducks. I can see the headline now. "Woman assaults children while trying to thwart the kidnapping of baby ducklings."

("Leave the damn ducks alone!" My handcuffs feel a tad too tight officer.)


On a much more sane note, I've been hooked on Kingdom Hearts 2 for the past week or so. The game is good, but there's way too many cut scenes. Some scenes go on as mini movies that can last up to 5 minutes. At least that's what it feels like in the rush to resume game play. I guess alot needs to be explained to really understand the game versus just playing it to battle and collect items. And yes I really like to know the background and story behind it. But come on! Can I at least play the game for real for 5 minutes? The heartless must be eradicated.

hehe, I'm half joking. But seriously, it's an issue. And I see I'm in a bit of an agressive mood, so I'll stop now before I pull a muscle.

My name is ____, and I’m the Coordinator of Student life, in charge of the Sessions gallery, among other student initiatives here at Sessions. Your instructors have recommended much of your work for the new gallery, launching soon, so I’ve become aware of you as an outstanding member of the alumni. The web graphics you did are excellent!

I wanted to check in with you to discuss a possible opportunity for press exposure... Sessions is going to be getting some coverage in online education trade papers and other publications, and we’ll be featuring a few student case studies.

I finished the interview questions, even though I had to take time to think of what to say. But I think it went pretty well. I mentioned my website, even though that's still being worked. If I could just get to it. Bleh...

Seems like this year whizzed by so fast. One blink and it's the last day of the year. And in the back of my mind, the same thought comes to mind. Those people born Dec 31st 11:59pm. Or in the case of twins. 2nd one being born at 12am Jan 1st. Then my mind drifts to those born on leap year Feb 29th.

Oh the complexities of it all. I'm just glad to be born Feb 4th. It seems to fit me. And I'm glad my color is Amethyst. I couldn't live without purple.

That's all I can think of for the New Year. But I do have goals on the horizon. One being to work on my driving. While I do drive from time to time, I need to boost my confidence and not be so nervous. I don't know what it is. Get more clients, boost my skills, gain more confidence in myself and my abilities. Work on my art more in drawing and digital art. And I may pick up Digital Photography. Hmm.

Anyway, I saw King Kong. And for the first time this year... I cried due to a movie. I'm not talking little tears either. I was sniffing into my tissues. It just hit me. And before the credits were over, I walked out on a mission to save Gorillas. Of course that lasted until hunger struck me and I went to Panda's. But the thought still stayed. It makes you realize that they do have emotions that closely relates to our own. If not equally.




Back to watching New Year's specials on TV... I'm so lazy and boring eh... I do wonder what new music artists to expect.

... I don't see an emoticon for severe frustration and annoyance. But, this depicts my emotion close enough... face-wise.

Ever have a moment where you just wanted to scream? And nothing bounces back but an endless echo. Just being in a place where you can't be happy and stress free. Every day is filled with me clinching my teeth and looking for any quiet room. Just a moment to get a way for one minute. Just 60 seconds.

Reaching to be free
Yet vines surround me
Gripping my soul
Binded by control
I am in a place I don't wish to be
No room for elevation
No space for peace
No time to think
Just places to sink

Quicksand

And yet I still try to find a way...


Just random thoughts. I managed to finish a client project, so I feel a bit accomplished there. The client was happy and is asking for further service. Unfortunately, I can't provide it. Search engine optimization. So, that's something I've been thinking on. The site design is completely different than something I'd ever design. But it was a challenge, and I really liked pushing myself to work with colors I never worked with before. However, I don't think I can take on any more clients until I'm in a better position. Or I can at least concentrate and have some type of peace. But... I will try to take on a few anyway. I just need to try.

Other than that, I gave Usher's CD a rest for a while. I'm looking forward to Musiq's CD in February. My month. Puuurfect timing.

It's kinda funny how we met back
When you walked down the hall where I worked at
A caramel shorty with a phat back
I spoke, you spoke, we spoke and that's that
Now ain't it funny how fate play
Cause I saw you at the club down on Market Street
And hollered like what's up girl
You said nothing man, and you smiled and went on your way
Like you didn't even notice me
And really like you didn't even want to speak
But that's cool, cause now its almost like everyday
I'm going off the things you do and things you say
It seems like our lives have been syndicated
But my minds bout the music, we can both make it
Who would have thought that we'd go from a straight up ignore
To talkin bout who wants more
Cause let me tell you girl

[Chorus]

Check it out how it transpired
We went from a spark to a raging fire
Down like a car, 4 flat tires
She my superstar, I'd be the shine behind her (yah'mean)
She got a ni** wide open
Shook like the trees when the wind is blowin
She my Missy and I'm her Timbaland
She rock my planet like
Zuh zuh zuh zuh zuh zuh zuh zuh
My mans and them said get it in
But my plans have been to get it in
And I'd do that, but never been a rude cat
I play fair so we go tit for tat till the blackness bares
First reaction was weird but it still was nice
So good that we did it twice
I'm saying in the beginning
She was scared but it still was nice
So good that we did it twice
I'm telling you girl

SLICK! Love it. Common's video Testify and Kanye West's Heard Em' Say is deep too... oh the realness, feel it. Ha.

I wrote something called "A toast to Rose". Kind of off the top of my head. It's a little long, but it tells a story. A narration. So maybe I'll find time to fix it up and submit it.



Okay, I'm done with this long entry. Pardon me.
