#fall semester 2024

[effelier]

Tomorrow I start my seventh semester. I'm sad to leave, I'll miss my mom and sisters very much. I'll also miss this home, it is cozy and clean and functional. And I'll miss watching law and order svu with my mom. I'll miss everything. But I know I will be ok. I will be with dad. Dad who spoils me. Dad who supports me to the ends of the world. Dad who told me to have milk with my breakfast on my first day of university because he wanted me to have all the energy needed. And I'll see my friends now and then. And I'll study and work really really hard to thank my family for their love and support. And to stand on my own two feet someday.

and with that we conclude the absolute worst semester yet!

one billion apologies again for the lack of writing lately (I have not opened a document since october) even tho ik yall will tell me it's fine and all that but still i miss it and can't wait to get back into it over break

the last two months have been perhaps the most difficult ever ever ever what with the breakup and then drama with my coworker/friend/guy i like(d?) and also a nightmare class that i somehow managed to end with a 95 in when I was so convinced I was going to get my first ever B that I was dry heaving in the bathroom at work??

anyways I miss u guys and I miss hellcheer so I am going to sit in my bed right now and work on some Christmas stuff that I started last year!!!

Determined to finally get my license within the first few months of this year. Gonna get my permit renewed next week. After I get my license, I will look into buying a car... which... ugh. But with my tax return, if I find smth relatively cheap with a decent payment plan, I think I can do it

I just think that the independence of being able to drive myself places will help me a lot. The rest of the things will follow.

10:39pm.

it's my second day of my winter break, but it feels like my first. to complete my final final, an essay for my british lit class, i ended up pulling an all-nighter, emailing my essay to my professor at a little after 8am, and going to bed soon after. i then spent most of the day sleeping. late in the afternoon i was roused by my mother and we went to Krispy Kreme. i enjoyed the evening drive, i sat shotgun and played Mitski's The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We.

after exchanging messages with sinta late into the night, i fell asleep and woke up around 2pm. since then i've been trying to strike a balance between resting and creating structure. the external structure of being in school helps a ton, and i know i'm prone to becoming listless and unmotivated without my community around me regularly or scheduled classes. i really need to tidy my room and clear my phone's storage...but i'll start working on that tomorrow. i had a meal, read a story that my friend wrote (very good, really tickled me), then went on a walk and spoke to my friend E over the phone. (it was good catching up with her.) when i got home another friend called as he was driving home from work and i caught up with him and listened to some of his romantic woes (affectionate).

i was quite exhausted after that, i'd been talking for an hour or so. i went upstairs, did a 15 minute writing sprint (not terribly productive, but i've been inspired by E, and getting into the habit of writing is important.) i then took another nap while listening to Behind the Bastards. now i'm awake again. i ate a macadamia nut cookie that my mom brought from church for me, with my oat milk.

i'm trying not to rely on distractions, it feels easy to just watch clips on youtube or something and while it's fun, there is more i could be doing. so i continued reading Beowulf, Maria Dahvana Headley's translation. i wrote my final essay on that, but i actually haven't finished reading Beowulf, despite having had it assigned in class(es) 3 times (several translations.) i have an affection for this translation, and i want to get in the habit of reading--another thing E and i spoke about over the phone, which she's inspired me to do. i'm going to start reading for fun again this winter break, starting here with Beowulf. i'm also going to start reading Michael Moorcock's Elric of Melniboné books with sinta, which i'm looking forward to.

vampire graduated today! i envy them and i am happy for their happiness.

1 exam done, 5 to go💀

Something I like about university is that it's so unlike my past school experiences. Which is the reason I hated yesterday's "first day of school vibes". I get that it was indeed the first day of uni for many kids, but not for me! So why are they rubbing their freshmen vibes on me?

First Illustration Class!

Santo, our illustration blogger, is diving into his first General Illustration class at Marywood! From street flyer designs to creative challenges, he's excited to see what more fall 2024 has in store. Stay tuned for more! #Illustration #MarywoodArt

This post will be a little on the shorter side; I am currently busy with the start of my second fall semester and work in the Art Department at Marywood University. Regardless, I want to quickly discuss the how the start of my first Illustration class is going! I am an illustration studio arts major and being that I am completed with my foundation year, I am now starting to take courses that are…

So I moved on from tumblr because I thought my tumblr fashion girlie phase was over.

2 years later I have instead become an History major guy.

My soul has not moved on from tumblr.
