Today was David and I’s three year anniversary-type thing, as I’ve referred to it today. Time flies, doesn’t it? Anyways, because of our busy schedules, the only special, extraordinary thing that we managed to do today was watch V for Vendetta. It was good, as always.

I suppose there were other things about today that were more than just extraordinary. For instance, the fact that I spent about an hour in a cemetery after sunset to take a staff photo with the rest of my coworkers. It sounds morbid, really, until you understand that the theme of this year’s yearbook was “the dash” and so it was rather fitting to take our staff photo in a cemetery among the graves. Or at least that was what it was supposed to be about, but really it was just damn cold and we were standing on dead people. Or something. Anyway, it was creepy to be in a cemetery in the dark among all the graves. I’m an easily startled person and so I was wary that someone would decide it would be hilarious to come up behind me quickly and make me scream in terror but luckily nobody knew about this particular impairment of mine. I’m even startled when I open a door and someone happens to be standing in the hallway behind it, even when I know that they’re there. I’m sure the photo will turn out great and it is really rather unique but it will take some explaining and I’m not sure that everyone will get it. I’m not even sure I do, yet.

I’ve made up a list of what I want to accomplish here and I hope it will help me stay on track and get motivated to do something as far as new stuff goes. I won’t tell you what’s on the list, but I think it will be useful stuff. We’ll just have to see how things go because I have three exams next week and I plan on studying a whole lot. I also have a C# program due on Friday that I really need to get moving on but I just haven’t had that much time. I really can’t wait until spring break.

Life just sucks sometimes. I’ve come to realize that. It’s a basic truth. Life’s going to suck but you’ve got to believe that somewhere, sometime, it’s going to not suck.

… or at least that’s my little “deep insight” of the day. College classes beat the crap out of you. Well, maybe just me. What’s so ironic is that the class that I give the least of a damn about is the one that I have a 99.29% in (I leave class early all the time, I hardly study). I’m really struggling to find that mixture of what I need to do to do well - because what I did in high school isn’t working any more. I’ve made up a study schedule that according to some online study sites is the first step. I’m planning on covering all new material this weekend, and then spending these “study hours” just reviewing material. Hopefully this new strategy will help drive home all the new information so that I’m not scrambling for answers on the exams. We’ll see, though, I’ve already tried a few tactics that haven’t helped whatsoever - but here’s hoping.

This weekend has seemed nothing but short. I’ve read two chapters of my geology book, done two online quizzes and leveled up only once in Perfect World. Hmm. I did also watch a Nova documentary on ape intelligence with David which was pretty good. (We’re both so nerdy that we watch documentaries for fun… har har.) I’m dead tired right now but I’m in no mood to go to sleep, and I’m waiting for an episode of House M.D to load, so I’m blogging.

Does anyone else enjoy House M.D? I’m rather addicted - I’ve been watching all the episodes online. I only started watching at the beginning of season 4 and so it’s rather interesting to start back at season 1 and see how the characters progress and change. I really want House to hook up with Cameron…

In other news, 2 new brush sets are up entitled “Fireworks” and “Tiny Stars”. I dug out some photographs that I’d taken at a local lake of an Independence Day fireworks display for the fireworks set and I’d just doodled around for the tiny stars set. Have fun.

I’ve got 14 new glitter fills uploaded. I’ve got a lot more that I’m hoping to get up very soon, but we’ll see how it goes.

Once again, if you’ve got ideas for brush sets, let me know and I’ll see what I can do.

I’m addicted to Facebook.com. (Don’t count on me adding you as a friend, though, because I’m really picky and routinely ‘prune’ my friends list.) Anyways, it seems like every hour (okay, every thirty minutes), I find myself clicking my bookmark icon for Facebook just because I want to see what’s happenin’. Even though I live a relatively boring and solitary life, I’m constantly wondering “what’s happening”. Is there something wrong with me? Hell yes. Do I care? Hell no.

I’m listening to Say Anything and that’s influencing my mental processes at the moment, so please excuse any weird outbursts that a song about laying in bed in boxers half-stoned with a pillow under my head…

As you can tell, this post is mostly just a post that I initially forced myself to write and now I’m rambling about.

I have a psychology exam tomorrow and I’m really not looking forward to it at all. It’s one of those subjects that seem easy up until they ask you a weird question that common sense can’t answer, or that common sense contradicts the actual answer. So we’ll see how it goes - I’ll just have to turn off “common sense” for this one.

I’ve just went through and updated all my plugins. That took quite awhile, and I deleted a lot of plugins that were laying about in the folder that I had never even used. This is actually the first time that I’ve ever bothered updating plugins. Do you?

I’ve got one really good idea for a new brush set and I’m throwing around a few more. Like I’ve said previously, if there’s any specific set you’d like to see or even a general type, let me know. I’ve made so many brush sets that I’m just sort of out of ideas at this point.
