Watch out for the thorns - they're fond of clothing as well as my notes.. If I update something, you'll know about it.

Let this be a lesson to role players who play in games with artists and /don't/ put up good descrips. If the artist decides the draw the party, she WILL take liberties!

No, no one wound up in black leather. Sorry. ^^;
Lots of metal, though. ^.~

I'll post that later, after I unearth the scanner - I'm still grieviously behind and most of my projects are on hold due to not being able to /get/ to anything ...
Mental note. No more month-long funks. o.O

And off on the road ...

Well, it's done.

The app's sent in, I'm at least in theory enrolled.
Now all I gotta do is go give the people in the Graphic Design a headsup and find out what exactly I have to do to get me into their program.

.. y'know the bit that annoys me? Not that they require you to take an assessment test, not that they have prereqs to even take the courses - but that, once you get IN - ... you use Macs. Okay, okay - so the Mac is supposedly superior to the PC for the purposes of graphics. But shit - I'm not interested in 3d rendering. I don't want to design game graphics.

I want to illustrate stories. Basically, what I'm doing now, only I want so get some more general practice. *sigh* Yeh, I'm sort of disgusted. Oh well. I'll talk to 'em, see what they say. Should be interesting ....

In the meantime, I have a bassackwards sleep cycle to sort out - yeh, I know why. I keep funky hours and I /hate/ mornings. Heh. Not that I mind /that/ - but no one else does things in Thorne-time, so I have to keep switching back .. Oh well.

... Now, to get back into it and see what's been put off while I've been a lazy bitch...

Geh.

The one thing I don't like about going for things like college and a degree - the /work/ involved. Yes, yes - it's worth it. But I'm an inherently lazy bitch...
Oh well. I'll survive.

Oh. Heh. This was funny.

Gahh!

Oh my. Oh my, oh my.

I still think Hollywood needs to get over itself, but once in a while, they shock me. It's a rare occurance, of course.

Anyway.
I just got back from seeing The Phantom of the Opera.
*thud*

Okay. If they will get Andrew Lloyd Webber in for /every/ musical they move to movie form, and LISTEN to the guy, like they very clearly did here?! I might just have to take back about half the nasty things I say about them.
Gorgeous!
True to the soundtrack, (I have /never/ seen the musical - but I have the soundtrack. I /wish/ I could have seen Michael Crawford sing as the Phantom, but I will take what I can get.) emotional, (I cried. I have /never/ cried at a movie. EVER. I did for this one.) ... LOUD ... *wry grin* Well, obviously - they always have the sound cranked at the theatre...
One DVD I am definitely going to get my hands on when it comes out.

My head is /still/ ringing, it was ringing all the way home - wow.
Even driving home through pea soup fog (I swore I was going to come around a corner and find myself face to face with a skeleton or something in Ravenloft.. it was THAT thick..)I couldn't get it out of my head. And I couldn't /see/ more than three car-lengths in front of me. (Less, in town - I swear, in those conditions, the streetlights are more harm than help...)

Gorgeous. I now have some understanding for the Don Juan Triumphant thing - I never understood that duet... such intimacy. And in public! We are impressed! *grins*
No, I am /not/ going to explain. You wanna know? you go see it.

... Gah. Head still ringing - I have Angel of Music stuck in my head, and I haven't got the range to SING it! Wah! (Actually, I probably do, but I couldn't hope to do it on key... unless I sing the Phantom's part. Yes. I can. Don't look at me in that tone of voice. ;p )

I'm going to bed now. Or something. Hm. Tea. Feh. Or something. .. Good night.
