(9 | ?) [20 Dec 2005|08:58pm] suprise! a picture involving a real live human, not just my usual empty house furniture. skipped out of wedding duties to shoot pictures in a grubbychurchbasementbathroom, there's more to come! i'm still here and i'll be a little more active in the next few weeks, my last crit was today. i've been busy getting worked over by illustration and blowing my meager college savings on sushi, library fines, vodka, art supplies and phone bills. i hate d. and thinking of possibly seeing ____ in a few days makes me glow. i haven't gone to bed sober in weeks, i cancelled my birthday and plan on doing the same for christmas. cheers! also, i got a new email address and i'm not getting any comments emailed to me, so if i haven't replied yet i apologize. i'm trying to hunt down comment and reply to them asap. i'm so behind!

(26 | ?) [13 Nov 2005|07:48pm] just some pictures of my tiny home, it's really more like a dorm room crossed with a cheap 80's motel room. which is why most of the pictures are close. it's cozy, ok? the worst parts of it are also the best: minimal lighting, small windows, old furniture, the quirky neighbors.

(anger as beauty) [11 Nov 2005|12:35pm] blah blah blah downward spiral blah blah self-destruction blah blah i'm mad at myself blah.

(11 | ?) [08 Nov 2005|01:43pm] oh just a trip down memory lane. ( ... )

(26 | ?) [13 Oct 2005|08:49pm] this is a picture of the greatest bathroom around, as well as a bit of the greatest bag my old roommate brought me from mexico. it's bright yellow straw with a big madonna covered in glitter and sequins! (picture under the cut!) this week: the arcade fire was really great, feist was great, and i just found out today that martha wainwright is playing here on saturday! if i thought i had a choice i wouldn't go and save the much-needed money, but i clearly have no choice and will go. she was like the soundtrack to my summer. (deleted because i'm stupid) ( the uptown & misc. )

(6 | ?) [19 Jul 2005|09:22pm] i have had film again! hurray! pictures soon! the weekend: too damn much vodka (again), good chats with old friends, a nice sunday drive & lunch with my old boss, too many dreams about ____. monday: drunk, on fire, smashing mugs in the street, hanging out the window, making enemies the neighborhood over. less drinking, more talking, less obsessing, more designing, less waiting, more picture-taking

(11 | ?) [12 Jul 2005|10:44pm] ( summer pictures )

(9 | ?) [25 May 2005|01:16pm] things are quiet. work is really good. a big desk in an air conditioned room filled with art mags and books, working on my own laptop, beats last summer's working conditions any day. i don't get to play wist every day though, and the pay isn't great, but otherwise i absolutely cannot complain. i went on a small trip for may long, nothing terribly exciting. took a few pictures but 16 mb of memory space and 9 polaroid pictures doesn't go very far, especially when everything is so so so beautiful and needs to be remembered. i think my pictures might be dull and all the look the same, but everywhere i go i'm so blown away by how pretty everything is! i can't help it! i also proved my hangover-proof drinking method was more than just a lucky coincidence. i don't really understand why it works, but this is the scheme: drinking my vodka straight on ice with an accompanying glass of water. i get ridiculous headaches very easily after drinking, and for some reason this does not equal me feeling like death in the morning. the other benefits are: i don't go through drinks as fast, because cheap vodka doesn't have the most pleasant taste, therefore: it's cheaper. an all around better deal! also, a question. how is it possible that anyone can not spend their life's savings on ebay?!?!! i just started using it a few weeks ago and i think it's going be trouble. how can i reason against getting all these things i want for cheap?! it's the year of Student Budget, julie, adhere please! ps. (a. should stop being mad at me forever so we can party next weekend. promise!) ( may long trip I )

(10 | ?) [11 May 2005|03:26pm] i got the graphic design job at the moose jaw museum and art gallery, and instead of starting at the beginning of june, i start on monday! since i've mostly only done illustration up until last semester, i'm still a little nervous going into a design job, but it should go ok. i have plenty of classmates to have email crits with along the way. and now i'm confused about which stream to take at school next year. it's my last year and i can take graphic design, advertising, illustration or character design as my "major", but right now i want to do all of them. d. and i are back together. we spent this past weekend together, and everything was fun and peachy, but i have a feeling that now that he's back at home a province away it might just fall apart again. it's kind of silly, he says that the problem is that we don't spend enough time together and things would be ok if we hung out a lot more (meaning me staying at his house all the time, and ignoring whatever other life i have). but i think that even though it's a harder only being able to see each other like twice a month, that's really not that bad, and if our relationship was actually working we should still be able to still function long distance. maybe i'm just being silly. oh welll. i should stop talking about it until i know for sure how i feel and what i want. anyways, here are some illustrations for a children's book project, i chose "the fox and the cat" by brothers grimm. i'm only showing the first 2/3 scenes because i half-assed the last one. i guess the scenes aren't very narrative, but you have to read the story, it's hilarious! it's more character rather than action.

(10 | ?) [21 Apr 2005|07:22pm] i've been away so long! i do read you folk almost every day, though. things have been crazy, but two things are more important: 1. unexpected medical diagnosis to a high degree. something that i've been fighting against as long i as i can remember, but without having the slightest idea. (not depression, etc.) 2. breaking up with d. thirty minutes ago; sobbing and choking; smiling thrity seconds after i hung up. i felt really sad about it, but it really needed to happen. the last straw broke very early this morning and i finally did what needed to be done. while there are still a few things i need to tie up, i feel relieved. i don't think it's going to be a clean break. (is there such a thing?) i don't feel like i'm tied up anymore, and i have some serious catching up to do here. expect picture posts soon! xox
