So today I had a lot of artistic feelings today. None of them are quite what I wanted. I designed two more goth wedding dresses, and re-drew two of the three Horsemen that I had already designed. Don't get me wrong, I like these version much more. But I wouldn't think that Famine would be that hard to design! ARGH, it's just like Pride from my Seven Deadly Sins project. It's been almost four years on that one, and I still haven't even got an idea for him yet. I hope that doesn't happen with Famine. Well anyways, here's the drawings I did today.
WAR
PESTILENCE
And two more dresses.

I still need to design Famine, but find it's easier to fix War and Pestilence instead.

Finding I love to Bike!
So I have been biking more and more everyday here in Corvallis. I don't think that I have ever biked this much in my entire life. But I love it! Although after the first few days, my knees, ankles, thighs, and butt were very sore. But the ride to and from work is very easy. Although I think everyone else at the dairy is kinda surprised that I bike so much to and from work. Especially when it's only 3 in the morning. LOL. But if you want to know something, that is actually my favorite time of day to bike. It's cool, there's no people, specifically no cars, the lights are all green, and....it's completely quiet! I love it, just me, the air, and the ticking of my gears. The ride itself usually takes from 20 minutes to half and hour depending on lights and just how motivated I am to go as fast as I can on inclines. LOL
So anyways, I was thinking about naming my bike since I'm using it so much now. Any ideas?
Here she is:
A mint green and silver Schwinn Mountain Bike. I love this girl. Especially the springs in the frame that absorb the impact.

I found out that I have a new security blanket...
So it was my first night in the new apartment. I was getting ready for bed and realized that I was missing something. Some of you might think it was my favorite quilt, or it might have been my Bee. But no, it wasn't.
I couldn't find my retainer.
Yes, as I was crawling into my covers, I felt something was wrong. I looked around and noticed that nothing was missing from my bed and was curious. Why did I feel so weird. In my ponderous moment, I took a sip of water and it hit me. My mouth was missing my retainer.
It was already after ten o'clock, but I spent the next hour searching high and low for it for over an hour. Checking everything twice. I did find it eventually, in spot that I then remembered that I put it there. But it was very disconcerting that I couldn't find it, and then that I couldn't sleep without it.
Well, I tell you now, that I will never, ever misplace my retainer ever again. LOL

New Apartment
I'm sitting in my new apartment. Not much to say right now though. Got the internet set up. Ouch, that took a long time...thankfully Alice has an awesome computer expert friend and helped us get there. So, combined with electricity, Alice and I are looking at and extra hundred bucks a month in rent. Not too bad divided between the two of us. Once I start my job, we'll be just fine. This time, the good feelings are outweigh the bad feelings. In mid September FAFSA will kick in, and that will help big time. So with that, me and Alice having a job, mom and dad being the guardian angels they are, we should be just fine. I'm feeling a little bit more excited all the time. I can't wait to get going and starting things. Even though I am totally missing my animals right now. This Friday I'm going home to see family, my aunt is coming over and I haven't seen her in ages. I can't wait!
So anyways, here's some really bad pics of my apartment. I was too tired to really care about how good they looked at the moment. lol
our bedroom
some art
our kitchen
my awesome poster!
and my awesome cd organizer!
So I might upload some more pics later, when we have more things to organize with. And when the apartment is looking better. So this is just the preliminaries. Plus, I'll have more to write about. lol
