just a minute...in september

yeah, it's a day early, but i couldn't wait to do my JAM for this month. i figured i'd probably have more time today than tomorrow (i had next to no homework tonight, whereas i have a crew meeting for west side story and a hair appointment tomorrow.)

watching... some great tv. i absolutely love glee. and i can't wait for ugly betty to come back. and i rejoyced at the return of snl! oh how long i've waited for new episodes...

reading... looking for alaska by john green. finally! the library had it in! i haven't gotten to read a whole lot since i checked it out, though, because i've been swamped with homework.

excitedly awaiting... fall rally! the beginning of november will bring me to all my friends from colorado, among other places. i haven't seen them since june.

loving...

  • all my friends.
  • my church family.
  • the lemon cake my mom baked for my sister's birthday.
  • cute etsy shops.
  • graphic design, spanish, and history.
  • catchy and uplifting songs.
  • cute and comfy clothes (especially my striped cardigan).
  • life.

finishing... my latest graphic design project. we're designing the cover for the program of study for all the middle school and high school kids in my whole district (the book that gives you a description of every single class). i finally wrapped up my self portrait made out of letters and other characters (obviously i took advantage of the simplicity of parentheses).



it's based on the photo that is my current/display/default photo.

contemplating... new blog names. the only one i've come up with that i think is catchy is tale of a dream unknown. what do you think?

listening... to electric feel my mgmt and new perspective by panic! at the disco quite a bit. (panic! is one of my most favorites. i'm so glad they brought the exclamation point back, but i'm super disappointed that they've been sliced in half.)

and i'm sleeping on the balcony after class

oh my gooodness.
the other day i got a certificate and it says i'm an outstanding artist in graphic design
!!!!
i was SO FREAKING EXCITED. i love art. but i've never gotten an award for it. ever. =D that made my day.
i just thought i'd tell you.
speaking of which,
i finished my last project of the school year, which is sorta like the last one, only different. it's about me. instead of something time magazine-y. which was boring to the extreme.
so here it is:

as i was cleaning out my h drive on the school's system, i found this that i made when we first learned about filters in photoshop. i made this the same time as the blue one in my very first post, so it is also something that came out totally random and i decided i liked it enough to save it:

it looks really creepy and weird to me. i don't know, tell me what you think. of both of them.
