Argh.

Wed Aug 12, 2009, 3:02 AM
I am working pretty much every day of my life. I'm praying for a day to come that I can just...sleep...in.
But that doesn't mean I'm not inspired! I am...it's just that by the time I get home, I'm not motivated enough...
I actually have to leave for work in about ten minutes.

Other than that, summer is nearly over and I can say, maybe hesitantly, that I did do a few things this year that made it okay. I didn't make as much art as I wanted to..but that's the case all the time. I always want to create something. I always have some ideas. It's just that somewhere in the process things always get messed up, or they never come out right..
I don't know. I still feel like there's some kind of dam in my life; where there's all this creativity and all these ideas in me but something is just holding them back from coming out. Who knows...

Anyway, mayhaps when I get back to school I'll have more to show you guys on here. I am taking more classes involved with my Graphic Design major. I am SOOOOO excited to be taking Intro to Typography this semester...sweet god I am pumped. So there will probably be some neat stuff from that, I'm hoping.

Stay tuned. For serious.

Creative Day

Sun Apr 19, 2009, 4:47 PM
Today is the first day since I made my Recycling poster, for Digital Imaging class, that I actually feel like I've accomplished something worth the time I put into it. I made two pretty neat things today. I've also sat behind this computer since almost 7 this morning. I had a few moments away. One of them was about 2 hours long. But then I came back. So yeah.

Today I created my new ID and a propaganda dealie. I'll probably work on the latter more. Or create another one. Either way, today was a pretty creative day. It just hits me. That is how it works.

I just get SMACKED with an idea and I do it. If I try to think really hard other times, to come up with something, it usually doesn't work out too well. The recycling poster hit me as soon as I knew what the project was. I had a spark and used it. The same with the things I accomplished today.

So I feel pretty alright at the moment. I wish I would be able to do it all the time, though.



In other news, finals week is looming. This week is the last of classes. Then there are those classes meeting for final projects and tests. And then it's over. I wish I could say the stress is done, but seeing as my dad's job just moved again and we're without insurance, plus (despite living with my awesome boyfriend, who I won't let pay for everything of mine) I need to get a job so I can afford to continue existing. My car is nearly to 265,000 miles. I keep worrying about her.

Moral of the story:
I'm going to try to do more photos and art this summer.
I think.

A day in the life of Emilee

Mon Dec 1, 2008, 9:09 AM
Alright, this isn't really about a day in the life of me.
Misleading, isn't it?

Anyway, recently I've been mulling over old stuff, editing it, etc. I haven't really been taking new photos. Mainly because I'm still devoid of a camera. And my cell phone camera, which if you've been through my gallery you've seen PLENTY of pictures from, is like...broken now. It's always blurry and crap on one side. I guess I finally dropped it too many times.

Other than that, I've been working on school. I should probably be working on that right now, but whatever. And finals are coming up. Perhaps over Christmas break I'll get some new stuff. Being so far away from everyone who wants to do something ( *cough ~morbidaestheticx, ~ShadowontheWall85, ~StormofSerenity cough*) makes it difficult. And over Thanksgiving I just watched hours of Scrubs and worked at Cinemark, haha.

I have new things to showwww off. It's just a matter of finding the time and motivation and...a camera or someone with one...that isn't an hour away.

All excuses, excuses, excuses. It'll happen eventually. Promise. Maybe after Christmas when I either get a camera or enough money to afford one. I currently have $36 dollars in my bank account. I AM the epitome of broke college student I guess? I pretty much live with my boyfriend so the food and stuff thing works out pretty well. I haven't started making furniture out of two by fours and cement blocks yet. Which is nice. And he also has some pretty amazing ideas, himself. Some day I'll con him into busting out HIS camera.

Okay, enough of me making excuses for why I'm neglecting dA.
It's leftovers time! Still!

And I have to wholeheartedly thank *Miss-Deathwish for her feature I'm in, which got me something around 50 favorites and watches and stuff when I logged on today. She's an amazing artist who I admire! Thank youuuuuuu!

School

Fri Sep 12, 2008, 9:55 AM
It's been almost a month!

I've been at school a few weeks.
Things are going pretty well so far.

I have new pretties, too.
lmfao

Not a whole lot of time to go out and do anything, though.
and I have a complete lack of...camera.
haha

I'll figure something out soon, I guess.

The Wire

Thu Aug 14, 2008, 11:40 PM
The Wire. The horrible, infamous wire.
I am down to it. One week left before I'm outta here.

Why, what should I do? Go do photos, you say!? of course.
haha

I've been dying to shoot with ~morbidaestheticx forever. I know these girls, they're pretty awesome. Today we managed to get together and run around taking some pictures. I had to say I had a fantastic time today and I'm trying to refrain from overloading my dA with new stuff.

I'm so pleased right now. I almost forgot I'm being shipped away next week. :bleh:

Anyways, I'm off to edit and deprive myself of sleep for a while. I may as well get used to it.


-EDIT-
Here are some of the shots they uploaded on their page!:
