  • something that makes me annoyed

    okay here's one of the things on my pet peeves list: when people describe what i do as "easy" because they really have a vague understanding of what i have to do

    for example....
    so i'm still beginning my design classes and only have a LITTLE "sneak peak" into what interior design really means. often times when i tell people i'm an interior design major or that i can't go out because i have to work on my design homework, i'll get responses of "ohh design homework?? duuude, so easy! all you have to do is draw and decorate stuff!" um, i didn't say i was majoring in interior decorating..

    "easy"? are you kidding me? no. and interior decorating ain't so easy either, buddy. i'm scared for my life to see what kind of projects are in store for me. i wouldn't exactly describe the concept of design to be something so simple. even "simple" things in design take deep consideration and thought. it's odd for me to even realize this because... well, i'm not even gotten close to even knowing what "real designing" is and i already feel overwhelmed. 



    i just get too annoyed of the little things, don't i?

     

    WHATever, human race...

  • eye sea?

    (this happened a couple of weeks ago but i'm finally blogging about it now) but during one of my shifts at work, i had made a drink for one of my former classmates from last semester. here's how the conversation went:

    me: i have a drink out for kate ready. kate?
    kate: thank you
    me: hey! how are you? do you remember me?
    kate: haha.. um, sorry i don't.
    me: i had math with you. with sollberger?
    kate: hmm i don't remember seeing you in class.... haha sorryy
    me: haha, oh well. it's cool. enjoy your drink.
    kate: thanks! well, it was nice seeing you again!

    "nice seeing you again"???? again?! you didn't even see me in math class to begin with! our math class was a fairly small class. well, that goes to show you how much i participated in class. heh. anyway, since i'm talking about work and making drinks... one of my biggest aspirations for the future is to become a part-time bartender (or, "bartendress" for all you gender-termed, grammar-caring people). the biggest problem is..... that i don't really enjoy the taste of alcohol. ohh, call the police! i'm an underaged drinker. anyway, that is beside the point. i don't know how i'm gonna pursue that job, but whatever, i'll keep y'all posted on what happens in 3 years (yeah right).

    well, it's time to save the daylight. daylight(s?) saving(s?) time? screw daylight(s?) saving(s?).  i think it's really 3 AM right now? i wonder what time would be like if no one ever followed the "fall back, spring forward" rule. what if we become too lazy to "spring forward" after "falling back"? what would people do? eh, i'm rambling again.

    sometimes i have things to say, but i choose not to blog about it because i feel like i would be sharing too much about my personal experiences and that makes me a little uneasy. like right now, i'm sharing that i would like to share less with everyone. wwwwwhaaaaaaaaatttteeevvvvveeeerrrrrrrrrr i'm getting too lazy to typeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  • ehhhhhh!

    it's 2 am and i'm feeling a little guilty that i've totally neglected my xanga for quite some time. i mean, i still go on and read subscriptions and random blog entries, but i haven't really typed out anything for myself. okay. i don't have much to update really. lately i've just been consumed in my design projects or working or just trying to get a breath of air! when i'm not at school, i'm working. when i'm not working, i'm doing homework. when i'm not doing homework, i'm procrastinating on homework that should be done.. heh. in the late nights/early mornings is when i get the most work done, but that's the time when i should really be sleeping. like right now, for example.  sometimes sleep is just so inconvenient for me. sure, sleep is good at times, but there aren't enough hours in the day, in my opinion. boo sleep!! who needs it? i really wish i didn't. since i've been so involved with school and work  and homework and yadda yadda yaahh, where's the time for friends and hanging out? after everything, i'm left with little time and energy to hang with the usual friends. alright i'm sorry that this blog entry isn't too interesting. lemme quit whining so i can share some photos with y'all.

    for my fundamentals design class, our assignment was to hand-draw 24 different textures of tangible objects:

    ^click to enlarge! can you guess what some of them are?
