This morning I had the peculiar thought that, contrary to childhood aversion, teaching might have something in it for me after all - if, perhaps, not the traditional profession of it - for the first thing that comes to mind when wondering why I'm persisting as both half-baked musician and artist is so that if I find some measure of fulfillment down

"those who can't, teach"

I am so excited to see your 3D animation stuff, I'm following your tumblr. :D

Fooooooood

[lanyingjie]

Oi :P.

But well, I think Christal'd make an awesome art teacher actually :P. A few more years to my painting thingamajig! :D

[yls]

Gracias for vote of confidence! Maybe you'll get that artthing in 2014 8D At this point I just remember it was horses and nothing much else. Any particular requests, a few years having passed since? ...wait, is that like five years already

Though I can't really imagine myself teaching art. Drums, yeah, that works xD

[lanyingjie]

2014 really doesn't seeem that far away right? I mean, when did we talk about it, 2005 or something? It's been 7 years zomg.

Keep having fun! :)

[yls]

Can do! (are you?)

[cybermuse]

I will, once my nature's threads essay gets done...

It is like living for the first time.

hehehe i'm so glad that you feel that way :)

i heard about the buffets!!! watch the cheese and carbs!!!

[yls]

Cheese and carbs I can manage, but I thrive on salads and desserts. Gah sugar.

It's also pretty scary, but in a good way, I think!

[rittany]

is it scary because it seems like you're suddenly so free to determine yourself and your actions and where seems to be so much undefined space ahead you can fill with any thing you want?

[yls]

I guess there's that, but on a more micro scale it's scary because class is like... hi, here is this art-related thing, DO IT NOW and I don't know how to and have to struggle through instead of going oh yeah, school, that thing that I don't care about that we'll just get done in the sidelines. That aside, there's that I don't even know how/what use all this is really going to be in future, but there's no point worrying about how life will unfold!

Polyphasic sleep! I remember trying that and being too stubborn to stop even when it stopped working.

Hey, I'm going to be driving down to Bend on Tuesday with Joe, maybe we should get together for dinner? If we happen to pass that way! It would be nice to see an old friend and talk about what you're up to these days. Give me your number if you're interested and we'll arrange something. Mine is 778-319-5885.

Heh, I can imagine! Especially if (like me) you're both a night owl and early morning person. Life would be better if I could sleep away the manky afternoons instead of having to go for things like classes and other appointments.

That's pretty near, so sure, if you happen to go by Eugene drop me a line! Would be great to meet up for a bit - number's 541-221-2132.

[starcrackers]

OK! We're driving down on Tuesday. Will see if we go through Eugene. :D

Ooooh this is exciting!! What're you studying in Oregon? And what programs do you use for 3D modelling? :)

P.S They look fantastic!

[yls]

I'm doing Digital Art here, modelling in Blender! Hurrah for open source software.

Thanks! :D What're you up to these days post-graduation?

[solstizio]

Haha, your forte! Never used Blender, but hurray for free student software!! I'm actually still studying, finishing up the first trimester of my Masters here in NZ :) How long're you gonna be in Oregon for?
