RRRMG

Just took a shower, debating if i should go out in a few or wait for my dad to come home and help him pick up the lawn mower and go out after that. Anyways, in the mean time I’ve got alot of things going on… well kinda. haha

So this is how it feels to be a post graduate.. Ugh I have so many plans and projects that i want to do. I’m debating if I should take a (mental) break or just keep working on my porfolio, the RMG Collection or look for a job. My boyfriend told me I should chill for awhile, but you know me. I’m not gonna listen.. haha maybe I’m becoming a work-a-holic. I just don’t want to sit around and feel like I didn’t accomplish anything. I’ve been trying not to go out so much because I know I will definately spend money (which is a bad thing for me lol). Last night I got back into the painting mode and tried to at least start up the RMG Collection again. I want to do the craft fair again!! Maybe I’ll try to do more than one. I’ve been having MAJOR creativity block. MAJOR. I’ve been getting really frustrated and I can’t think of any good ideas. But I did have a mini breakthrough this past monday. I had to bring the Jeep in for an oil change and I usually wait for that to finish. so when I was waiting I sat in silence trying to think of sculptures. And I finally got several ideas. It was a few pages long, which is a pretty good start. I also did a few sketches of the trucks and cars at the dealership. WOW I haven’t sketched anything for so long! I’m trying to keep a journal everywhere I go now. I feel that it’s good practice to write down thoughts and ideas that I tend to forget.

Moving on… My Birthday/Graduation party was really fun!! So many of my family members and friends came! I was really happy. There was too much body heat in my small house but it was alright. Everyone still had a good time. I think I gained a bazillion pounds ever since I came home from VCU. I’ve been eating breads and starches.. ew not cute. I need to get back on my ‘“chicken only diet and “a whole bunch of veg with it” too diet. All this beef and pork and miscellaneous starch is messing up my digestive system. Plus I want to work out again. I am extrememly out of shape.. well I gotta sign up for my 7 day free pass at lifetime! basketball anyone?

I got my new desk today! I can’t wait to assemble it. I also can’t wait for my new chest of drawers. Maybe that should be my first project. Fixing up my room! Ugh I have so many things that I still want:

- Daria: Complete Animated series
- Alice by Jan Svankmajer DVD
- Rome and Juliet (the Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes version) DVD
- The Craft DVD
- an easel
- clothes
- a gift card to Barnes and Noble
- a bed sheet set
- Triplus pen set

Ho Hum. I’ve been so good by not buying all that junk all at once. I kept telling myself: “I don’t need that now… you have the internet to watch all that and an enormous amount of art supplies”

So what would you do? Relax and take Time off? Or continue working like crazy?
