Life of a Random

Hey guys, so here's the thing: I know I've been an awful blogger lately. Aka no posts whatsoever for a very long time. I'm SUPER busy as it's finals time for me, and before that I was trying to cope with having three studio classes at the same time. I've finished my final project for Drawing 1-- a still life that was a representative portrait of my sister. :) The only thing left for me to do is present it. I'm so excited. Feel the excitement burning through my veins. I took my last Music Appreciation exam today and I'm so nervous about it because I've been stressed and caught something that really felt like the flu (and I still am sick actually) so I didn't get a lot of time to study for it. Of course, I still have a presentation for this class, which includes playing the piano. I regretted my decision like five minutes after I made it but I thought it would be a good life experience. -_- And my two design classes. For one of t...

So guys. So. I have just finished two major things that I had  to get done by this morning for school. I didn't sleep many hours last night which is very sad. But now I feel much better with the weight of all that stress lifting up (okay, okay. Semi-lifting up. We all know I won't completely stop stressing as long as I'm going to classes). I HAVE CONQUERED. Okay, but what this post is really about is that I'm going to be starting a thing  called "It's a Random Day" (because everything must be random because this is life of a random). It's basically the kind of post I can write any day if I have free time because as I said, not much of that floating around right now. It'll be the kind of post that's my favorite to read on other people's blogs-- I'll write about my day or maybe just a quote I loved on pinterest (or Kpop gifs. All the Kpop Gifs)  or the songs I'm listening to and the projects I'm working on. On a side note...

I saw the title of someone else's post and it gave me this idea that I should do this on my  blog. I hope you like and I'm sorry for the irregular posts. Dear April... I'm kind of dreading you and happy for you because you hold the due dates of many school things but on the other hand you're one month closer to summer break. And you need to make up your mind about the weather. Okay? Beautiful spring days and yucky gray rainy ones should not happen one after the other. It's throwing me off. And I don't enjoy walking to class in the rain. >.< I went to see an apartment the other day with my roommate, so thanks for that. :) We're so excited about having more than a tiny room to share. Also, it's pretty great that you are giving me two different honors award ceremonies this month. Or it would be if I didn't have to go on a stage and receive things and all that jazz. Have you not dealt with introverts before? You gave me a pretty beautif...

This post is about two days late buuut I have great excuses reasons. I promise ;) I've had school, extra events to attend for my honors program, blah blah blah. It's been great. *sarcasm* Today, though, I want to tell you about an idea I had and also what my current project is in my design class. I've just started a book cover project in that class! While it's really exciting, it's also kind of terrifying since this is what I want to do when I graduate and I would really like not sucking at it. (Also, apparently the professor raises standards quite a bit the higher the class level goes.) After a little brainstorming, I thought of a few book covers from a popular YA series that I'd love to remake (because that's what we're doing, remaking covers)-- the Mortal Instruments series. I love TMI to death, but that doesn't mean I like the covers. At all. So begins my creative process to turn in sketches at the next class. Mostly, I've researched. ...

I got tagged two times last month by Lizzie from Lizzie the Sarcastic Blonde . Thanks so much Lizzie! It's been a while since I was tagged. :) You guys should go check out her blog now . I'm gonna be doing both tags in this post to keep it nice and simple. :) book tag 1. Do you have a specific place for reading? Not really... I mean I do have preferred spots though. Like at college I love reading while I'm sitting on my bean bag or at home I like reading flopped across my bed or leaned against a bedroom wall. Call me Classy. 2. Bookmark or random piece of paper? A random piece of paper? Ha, I'm lucky if I can even hold on to one of those. I've used my cellphone multiple times, which resulted in me thinking I lost my phone. *le sigh* I just don't keep track of things very well. 3. Can you just stop anywhere in a book or do you have to finish a chapter? I've never really thought about it, but I guess I can stop anywhere. I'm pretty...

Yikes, I almost completely forgot about this but it's still early(ish) in March so that's good. Here is the update on my February goals: 1. Update my social media icons.  Done! 2. Revamp ALL of my blog pages.  I'm gonna cross it out because I did most  of them. Hey, that counts. 3. Change the font on the links under my header.  Done! 4. Make a list of books I've reviewed, complete with links. Nope, I didn't even touch this. Oops. All in all though I'd say I did pretty well. ;) And now  I get to move on to a new topic! The March topic is Social Media and Review Outlets . Read all about the topic in depth here . You can also read my January and February posts if you want. Basically this month is all about those social media websites that you haven't been keeping updated or that huge mess that is your Goodreads shelves. It's time to figure it out. *snaps fingers* my goals: 1. Update social media accounts (Twitter): who I follow, b...

So, everybody at my college kinda had a second winter break when we had one week of snow days (aka Snowmageddon). This, while it was very awesome, made my class assignments and stuff all wonky.  This week is "catch-up-week". I've got big design projects to work on and exams to study for and when I'm done for the day, I just need to relax and de-socialize and do nothing for a little bit.  SO, I'm sad to say it, but it looks like I'll be taking this week (and maybe more depending on schoolwork) off of blogging. LOVE YOU GUYS. Please hang on through the drought of posts. ;) I have some good stuff in store.
