Yearly Journal Entry

Tue Jul 7, 2009, 1:47 PM
A little update on my life in the past year. I got a huge scholarship in 2008, At NCECA this April I won the equivalent of a "Best in Show" at the student juried show. I didn't get into the JET Program, which has left me searching for last minute jobs and opportunities. I'm still waiting on them... And last, I'm getting married this weekend. w00t!

I'm pretty sure that's all that has happened worth noting. I've made a lot of new friends this year, and I've matured both as a person and an artist tremendously, so overall it's been one of the most successful years of my life.

I'll be writing another journal entry once I know where I'm going, maybe some of you will be around that area.

Facts about RBM

Sat Mar 15, 2008, 12:12 PM
1. Post these rules
2. Each person tagged must post 8 random facts about themselves
3. Tags should write a journal/ blog of these facts
4. At the end of the post 8 more persons are tagged and named
5. Go to their page and leave a comment telling them they're tagged


1. I work in clay, but first I try to do sketches and work directly and closely to the sketch. In the past year, every time I sketch it ends up being really deatiled and not a sketch anymore. I rather like that I wouldn't go as far to call them works of art themselves, but the idea of making art from art interests me.

2. I get sparation anxiety from being away from studio. I spend roughly 6-12 hours daily in studio, but hardly any on the weekends. I need a break, and my social life calls to me.

3. I suffer from kidney stones. Drinking enough water is hard. Contrary to popular belief, they don't hurt to pass. the largest one I've had was 2mm. It hurt only on the way to my bladder.

4. I hate being alone. When I'm alone I have to deal with the thoughts in my head, and I don't enjoy doing that.

5. I miss my interaction with the ReBoot Fandom. I'm just too busy at the moment to know about anything going on, and it really saddens me. It's the people in the fandom that I miss the most. They kept me well during a hard time in my life.

6. I'm studying Japanese. Currently I'm in Japanese 6 at my university. Once I graduate I want to move to Japan and teach english for a couple of years. After that I've been offered an apprenticeship with Masaya Imanishi, a ceramic artist, for three months or so. A wrench in the system is that I have a serious girlfriend who I could potentially marry, but not before I go. We'll see where my path takes me.

7. I care too much about people. It keeps me up at night. I give others my all and I don't seem to have enough left for myself. I can be a huge pushover, and I don't really mind. Luckily I have good friends that don't take advantage of that.

8. I lost 15 lbs from August to October, and I didn't have 15 lbs to lose. It seems that walking to school and work, and only eating enough to get by because of money and room in my backpack causes weightloss from a little fat, but mostly muscle. I'm trying to get it back but it's hard when I'm still walking and eating only a little. I'm not yet underweight, and I've stayed at the same weight since October, so I'm not too concerned. I just want to look like I used to.

If you guys are feeling up to it, you should do this too. It was pretty fun.

That which is new with rbm

Wed Jul 18, 2007, 2:58 PM
I haven't updated my journal in almost 2 years, and I've avoided doing it because I no longer subscribe and I'll lose all my journal features that were on my main page. But I no longer care about that lol.

A lot of strings have been severed in my life really recently. I turned over ~sculptureclub to ~arkturus and then I decided to turn over ~rebootclub to ~boggart. I miss running rebootclub, but all good things must come to an end, and I wasn't a very good admin in the past year and a half or so. I'm sure ~boggart will do what I cannot with the club. Now I have lost my need to come online everyday and I feel so free.

I have a serious girlfriend, I still have that pottery teaching job, and I'm again president of my schools Anime club, so some other responsiblities had to leave my life, otherwise I would have gone postal on somebody. :(

My ceramics ability has improved dramatically in my humble opinion. I know I still have a loooong way to go, but seeing it after a long plateau has been nice. I recently found a place where my style is going, and I think that's what I can contribute that to. I was finally able to make what I wanted, and not silly assignments multiple times. I won't go into how illogical my school's art department is, and especially the Ceramics department, but let's just say we have to take a year and a half of wheel throwing, and it's pretty much the same simple, forcing to be ugly, assignments every semester.

I discovered this summer that dispite hating children, because I've been working with them for 5+ years now with no intention of doing it after I graduate, I'm actually very good at teaching them. Every co-worker I get makes the same mistakes, and don't disipline them in the right ways. It's funny really, I have these kids in complete control, and I'm manipulating them into doing things they shouldn't like to do but they don't mind doing it somehow. It's like it comes naturally to me or something. I wish I could give this gift to someone who is going to work with kids for a living.

I'm also moving into an apartment in the beginning of August. No more dorm comfort for me. It's time to grow up I guess.

I can't really think of anything else to talk about. For those who care, I'll hopefully be uploading some stuff here more often. The thing about ceramics is that it takes so long, and you get literally a load of art done all at once, so we'll see what and when it happens.

Anyway, hope you all are having a good summer. Keep your mind on the arts!

School

Sun Sep 4, 2005, 9:52 AM
You're ready to read my journal.

____________________

Well, I've been in school for about 2 weeks now... It's going alright. I'm enjoying my classes enough. I'm actually just about to go check my pots for ceramics II *Likes that class*

Next weekend we're having out 7th annual - minus last year - Anime Film Festival! I'm one of the people in charge, and it's going to be awesome. I wish you guys could come because we're going to be showing some pretty good series. So I've been busy with that lately. I've had to go to businesses and get free stuff to give away, also get the business's logo for the back of our soon to be t-shirt. Doesn't sound too difficult, but finding the manager and working things out with them can be really challenging when you're busy with school.

I'm getting to know people in my dorm, and they seem really cool, so I'll hopefully have some good friends by the end of the year.

And.... so far no art. ;_; I'm goign to take WIP pictures for ceramics II, and I'll also be taking some pictures of the anime festival (The people working it will be cosplaying!) So some submissions will come soon ^_^

I'll do comissions, and most likely cheap ones at that. Prices are negotiable because I'll make anything (that's not a bong :P)
:pointr:Along with comissions, I'm going to start an online cosplay accessories store. So if you can think of any semi popular costumes that need cheap accessories that I can make (not sewing stuff) please let me know.
