holy crap people. i never expected when i joined this site that i would ever get a dd let alone two!

i would like to thank ^2dazed for giving a dd. i would like to thank my mom for having me. i would like to thank my instructor of ceramics for making me do this project. and i would like to thank all the little people too.

in other news, classes are crazy. i'm taking a web design class normally designed for 12 weeks in 3 weeks. holy stressful. but i bet i'll learn a heck of a lot.

so please bear with me as i wade through all the comments and such.

*edit: i'm down to 2 classes this semester from 3. 3 classes is way too many to handle in one session. phew. i can breath now. at least a little.

^{stuff.

got my grades from my semester as a grad student. 4.0 this semester bitches!! so frickin' happy. i worked my ass off.

summer classes start up again this tuesday. i'm predicting another 4.0 this semester. is that too presumptuous of me?

dd alert: I submitted a dd suggestion to ^2dazed and she gave the lovely *amphista a dd for "motherbee". which is an awesome piece by the way. check it out.

_{hello people. i haven't updated in quite a while. so i saw that you can get a journal skins as a member and decided it's about time i updated. semester one of my masters is complete. the next one begins may 26th. i'm hoping for a 4.0 this semester because i rock. simple. i uploaded my ceramics projects that i was happy with. let me know what you all think. i'll be taking a web design class this summer so hopefully in time i'll get that website up and running. that's all i got for now.}

Lovely Updates

• So... my ceramics class is going well for the most part. I really do like it but I'm having a hell of a time making pinch pots. I honestly suck at ceramics. I told my professor the other day that if he wanted I could draw him a pot instead of making one out of clay. For some reason he didn't go for it.

• I am currently working on my sketches for my next ceramics project. I have to draw 20 sketches by tomorrow night of a polymorph. I have to use an organic object - fruit, vegetable or nut and an inorganic object like a knife and put them together in an exaggerated kind of way. And I'm stuck. Big time. Any ideas for me people?

• Just in case you're wondering, while I do have a button at the top of my journal that says website and while it does go to mindysantiago.com, I still haven't done anything with it. So don't yell at me. Kay?

Featured Artist

• Check out my newest pick for a feature: *copperthistle. His work is just god damn awesome. Hopefully if I ever get off my ass and send a photo over to him, he'll honor me with a nice drawing of me as a zombie.
