Why I've been so slow with uploads lately

Mon Nov 16, 2009, 7:12 AM
  • Mood: Neutral
  • Playing: with muhself.
  • Drinking: Pesi,
I have to get my portfolio done by the end of December, ALONG with getting my novel re-read and re-edited by Thanksgiving.

The portfolio is important; if I want to get into the school I want to get into, I need scholarships. It's a very expensive private school, and I'm going for the full ride. This requires a lot of printing, cutting, beautiful layouts and a whole lot of time and cleaning up. It requires making alot of trips to Staples and alot of pissage on my end. I'm not mad--- I'm extremely excited ^_^ It's all coming out so beautifully. And I'm really hoping for that scholarship. LUCKILY This will all be over in january because that's when the damned thing is due.

The novel is important because, well, it's my novel. While I'm preparing myself for the worst by going to school; I do hope to someday write for a living. The novel is finished, and I just have to get one final edit in before Thanksgiving. That, and I am working on a website for it; just for the shits and giggles, and mostly to keep me going when I get rejected by agents (it happens to everyone). THAT ANDDDD searching for literary agents, sending out SASE's and all of that other crap? It's hard work alongside portfolio land. :[


Annndd of course the holidays. One bad thing about having divorced parents and split families is there are things happening ALLL over the place. buh. That and the day after thanksgiving Im taking off to take my American Eskimo Dog to a UKC showing.

This weekend I spent entirely looking at my new college in a faire, getting my artwork evaluated, and eating all too much tasty dining out foods :[

So. I'm not dead. I R NOT THREAT TO LEEVE DEVIANTART. Just give me a month and I'll be back on my toes. :)

Why do you wish to live in Germany (Homepage)? It's no nice land and many problems here. :|
We don't have nice landscapes ... we don't have anything nice here o_O
*can't understand that*

Just too bad you ain't homosexual. =D


Just a short question. You wrote you are working with 20k pixels ... how does your computer do such things? Even 4000x4000 are at about 40 mb size and take several seconds to load or save ...?

Germany: I love the history, I love the grudgy swelter of it all. I love the old buildings-- the countless ages it offers within it's borders. As an artist, I search for inspiration. While problems and poverty are a lot of an issue-- I like to find the brighter side to them. I find them peaceful and alive-- rather than hidden and feared. Germany seems to have a lack of fear; and I can respect that.

As for my computer. I don't work as large anymore; as I've stopped working on fur by fur detail. Well, most of the time... I think One im working on now runs about 15,000 pixels (this is at 100 dpi, not 300, which default is generally set at). How? My computer.

My computer works on 8 gigs of memory, a 4350 Radeon graphics card, and a 23inch, 1600 resolution monitor. :) I have an incredibly fast, up to date computer that can run very cool stuffs :)

Everyone here has seen Passion of the Christ right? If not, spoilers ahead:

Jesus Christ dies.
:iconkheoshex:
*awww* want's your computer ;)

Hm, I can't really understand what you mean by the lack of fear, but maybe we "Germans" look at us different from what others see in us ;)

Thanks for telling me that =)
