Of Oz and other things
Aug. 16th, 2007 01:36 pmOhayo gang!!! I wonder how you are all doing. I'm doing well. Well, sortoff.
I just got back from visiting my family up in Quebec City. I was glad to see my grandma and aunts, and it was all good fun. Link came with and got to see how things are up north. We also visited old quebec, which is what used to be the fortifications to keep the english out. Now it's a really touristy place, with lost of street artists and little shops. Very cute. I always forget how beautiful Quebec is.
I'm also very happy. I'm starting school soon. That's going to be crazy. I have an internship, school, work and homework (and hopefully, a social life) all at once. The winter session should be much less crammed, since I don't have an internship, and only 4 classes. Things are definitly looking up : I got a grant. The university gave me money because of my "A" average (yes, i'm hermione. I have a love affair with fat books.). Since my mother works at the university's education departement ; I get a discount to attend (and no, I didn't attend because my mama was working there, I started attending before she started working there.) With the discount and the grant put together...I go to school for free. I was amazed to see that when I got my financial report. Hell, the university even owes me money. How sweet is that? Considering how the art building is as crappy stack of cards glued together, I feel quite good not having to pay. hahhha.
I can't wait to share a studio with my pal Tanya!!!
I'm equaly very giddy because I figured out what I wanted to do with my life. As I mentionned to a friend no later than last night, when you don't know what you are doing, it tends to make you miserable. I want to go into event planning. I like that type of job because it's creative and yet as an administrative side. You do as much budgetting as color coding. It seems like the perfect job for me. Plus, you need some everywhere.
Right now, i,m trying to organise my future internship and my return to school. I,m also trying to kill off the few comissions I still have lingering (forgive me diane & daphne) so i'm a little stressed. But it will pass.
I've been also perfecting my personal style to try to make it less manga (mainly in serious drawings. I don't mind drawing manga for the blog since manga you draw fast.) So I did a few Oz drawings in that style:
That is all!

( ZOMG Color! )

( Fight )
( Expressions )
( What's this? )
( Random )
( For earthstar! )
