i've been taking pictures like crazy, but most are to commemorate
everyone i'm leaving behind. i will probably post a couple that seem
relevant- but sometimes its hard for me to seperate aesthetic value from sentimental value.

please, comment to help me work on that.

anyways, i'm scared out of my mind to be going to an art school when i know so little about art itself, any suggestions are appreciated.

i might start a new account to start to document my progress from my portfolio i submitted to school and through the summer and through my orientation classes and all of that.

ok, sorry i've been so absent. i had to live life for a little while.

(and the submit process is a little too tedious)

and i got about four rolls of film developed, but i'm having technical difficulties. if i can find a functional, worth-something scanner; i'll be getting them to you soon.

sigh. i haven't taken any digital pictures for about two weeks now, i have no idea why.

theres a giant hide and seek game today, hopefully i will get some there.

the end?

hope everyone is doing well.

if anyone has done a portfolio recently or not so recently and wants to show it to me so i can get ideas, it would be greatly appreciated. yeah, do that ! thanks.

kbye. ]]> ~skaforbrain http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/5622608/ http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/5622608/ Sat, 11 Jun 2005 22:13:35 PDT
i could possibly be getting a version of photoshop soon-ish.

meaning i can finally put up borders and do my three picture series shots like everyone else does.

(and i'm dying to do)

i'm trying to do a project a week-please any ideas are appreciated.

and i'm talking about ANY IDEAS.

something as simple as "hands" or "shadows"
or something as complex as "a woman with red danger tape around her eyes and stomach jumping and snarling"

go wild. i need something fantastic. i would cite you of course, but really i'm thinking these will just be ways to get my mind pumping in the right direction. ]]> ~skaforbrain http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/5555859/ http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/5555859/ Sat, 04 Jun 2005 22:37:04 PDT 's gallery. i think he'd like some comments, and hes gotten terribly good.

i will upload soon. i promise. really.

school is out this wednesday, expect pictures-finally. ]]> ~skaforbrain http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/4414067/ http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/4414067/ Tue, 25 Jan 2005 18:11:21 PST

i have ten rolls of film, and infinite digital pictures i've yet to load. i'm terrible. i will get on it as soon as i can. i'm sorry for being so boring lately, and i haven't been good with comments either.

thanks for all who have commented/favorited. i'm sorry i'm so horrible at replying.

there have been some fantastic pictures in my inbox as well, i'm sorry to all those i watch, i really love all of your pictures, even if i don't get a chance to say something about them. !!

and its not like it takes NO effort. its very hard to keep it still when its extremely cold outside and you're shaking. and i always use manual mode.

sigh. the reason i really like it is because i don't have to wait ages to get anything developed.

this might mean constant posting for awhile, sorry to clutter up your watch boxes, but i want to get feedback while i'm learning how to use it.

merry christmas.

i also helped judge for a photography exhibit in gboro. it was pimp.

the end.

ps. what do you think of my new pictures? they weren't very well thought through, but i'd like some insight. thanks.

i also looked through my gallery a little while ago and i might scrap just about all of it.

i want to show some good work of mine. i want to MAKE some more good work. blegh. theres just not enough TIME.

i've been noticing all these weird marks in the sky that look like shooting star trails, but they're not. and they're not from planes either. its a mystery. it inspired me hardcore. i have all of these movie ideas...and STILL NO TIME!! fabulous. well. i'm going to stop complaining about it and i promise to have SOMETHING by the end of the week.

hope your week is really neat!

i'm not goiing to make some emo journal. but theres a good possibility that i will be posting a lot of stuff lately, theres a lot of negative emotion floating around and i can't let it pile up.

hope everyone else is doing a little better than i am this week.

today is one of those days where i want to shirk my responsibilities and run rampant with the fireflies.
this might seem lame to you, but i feel so happy. i don't feel the need for elaborate schemes to take the monotony out of my life, because my life isn't really monotonous.

my friends right now, mean so much to me. just recently i've realized how much they've done for me and how much they've sacrificied while i've been down. its really humbling.

makes me want to make the world a better place.

passing my classes would be neat, too.

i saw an amazing battle of the bands last night. it was fantastic. nc is starting to come out with so much talent. its beautiful.

i was watching the stars move tonight, when you look at them so long without blinking they start to jiggle in your eye sockets, causing the stars to have an ethereal effect.

looking at this, taking sporadic breaks to "dance it up" to zeppelin, blasting from holli's car i reflected and realized my precipice, and what i'm standing on. i don't know if i'm ready to jump off or not,
but where are the "stars to fill my dream?"

i think its my soul.

i know thats an odd thing to say. but its just what i feel inside. i'm genuinley happy tho, i just have this empty thing floating below my ribcage. and i had to tell someone.

i just posted a taste of what i've been working on. i have a million pictures, but no time to scan and post them. sorry the two i did post are so horribly wrinkled! i used this terrible glue. ]]> ~skaforbrain http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/2999033/ http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/2999033/ Thu, 29 Jul 2004 20:11:00 PDT
its discouraging tho, when their work is so good, and mine really isn't. o well. i try and it makes me happy, thats what we all do it for isn't it?

ahh this is long. sorry. hope everyone is fantastic!

i miss ncsa.

but on a lighter note, i'm still having a SENSATIONAL time there, i feel like i've finally found a place.

awwwwwwwwwwww...just realized how sappy that sounded.

hope everyone is fabulous.

i'm sorry i haven't been on in ages, and that i haven't replied to barely anything. i've been fairly busy. but i'm getting pictures back monday, and i found a couple old test strips i might scan just so you don't get bored of me. i hope everyone is FANTASTIC.


o. i love AS I LAY DYING. and ALEXISONFIRE.

ever wait for something for something for so long and then it finally happens and its like someone uncorked a wine bottle inside your stomach and all of your emotions just explode onto whoever your with?

well thats how i feel right now. amazing, one person says the right thing and everything seems to make sense. now i have to wait three weeks to do something about it. but shit. i'm tempted to say i've never been this happy.

you'd think all of this would make me artistic. well-it does. but i've only made ONE collager in the past month and i have no money to develop all my film, or the time to do it. its not that i have a lack of inspiration, more like a plethora...but i feel like it has to be perfect, you know? i know nothing i create will live up to what i want it to.

blah. you don't care. later kids.

hope everyones weekend was as wonderful and exciting as mine was.

but at the same time amazing things have been going on around me.
like intense AWESOME things.
if i wasn't exhausted, i would write more-but just thought i'd let you all know that i'm still alive and kickin.

so i was talking to my friend cai and her boyfriend kevin the other day and it turns out that they have had whole conversations about my deviant page and check it out about every two days, and i know you get bored sometimes, but the way they were talking about it-they actually like my stuff and this makes me incredibly happy!

<- wow. so this kid is AMAZING. i mean not only is his talent unquestionable and his work gorgeous, but without even knowing me he has given me a subscription to deviant?! i've never even met this kid before, so i know that it has come purely from his overwhelming generosity and hopefully that he thinks that some of my work is worthwhile. this has left me simply and utterly flattered. in fact, i've never been this flattered.

i am in awe of you project!!

despite my sleep deprived body(i literally got five mins of sleep last night) i am ELATED.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU KEVIN!!!

it means so SO much to me that you would even consider me for this. you are incredible.

"now i can't dance. it's hard to groove when you've got things on your mind. sometimes you can use the dancing to fight them off.

*opening night for the play is tonight, and my friend charlie is visiting me and going to watch it! i'm so excited. i haven't seen him in awhile. or anyone for that matter. i've practically been living that play. but i'm so hyped for tonight..and in two more weeks it will all be so OVER.

and i wish i didn't sound so stupid and girly when i type. i use too much 80s slang. i am being self-depricating! yay! later kids.

the play is so close now..and we still have so much more to do...i'm sorry if i haven't replied for awhile...i really want to post something but the only things i've made, i've made for other ppl. well i hope you are all fantastic! i'm hanging in there. ]]> ~skaforbrain http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/2259949/ http://skaforbrain.deviantart.com/journal/2259949/ Mon, 19 Apr 2004 22:43:04 PDT hopefully somewhere in there i can find time to do something creative. we'll see! everyone has been posting so much stuff, that i'm simply amazed by, how do you ppl have such constant inspiration, and more than that how can you apply that inspiration so well?
i'm in awe. i feel like such an underachiever. at school, here. its sad.

but at least i'm starting to get my life back on track, been to busy to worry about anything else thats on my mind.

over. its over. i was going out with this kid for awhile, then we were on a "break" for two mos. and now its over. i did it. i had too. i mean i was hurting, right? plus hes always liked someone else in the back of his mind...i've always been second, and i never minded before. it just had to stop...it was an abusive relationship...because i was abusing myself.
AHHH...
dunno why i am telling you this...i'm sure none of you care. i wish i didn't care. but i just thought i'd explain b/c i have a feeling a lot of the stuff i will submit will have a lot to do with this SHIT.

gaah. i didn't mean to whine honest. i know i shouldn't be acting this way. but i can't stop. i just want to be able to sleep again, or eat. its just so HARD.
damnit i'm whining again. this is the last time i'll mention this, HONEST.

so SORRY. didn't mean to RANT. i really don't do things like this. so forgive me just ONCE. please. SO SORRY.

but somehow i ended up improving and saving our little one act on several counts..dunno how exactly that worked out-considering i felt least prepared, but we pulled it off, and now its done.
