Sailor Jerry, moving heavy items, laughing my ass off...Thats the best way to spend any day of my life.

America Art Work #1

So I've finally started cracking on my pieces for the "America" Show.  I decided to do a series inspired by fireworks off of Old Orchard Beach.  I used found wood, birch bark, Cepocal staining, Oil Pigments and glass to create this piece.

Basically I've been trying to create a smooth yet sporadic and chaotic feeling that fireworks give off.  This is all thanks to me getting a massive sun burn and being bored to tears.  Thank you sun for destroying my skin but enriching my portfolio!   I LUVS YOUUUUU!

I Think That Its Time For Us To Leave This Place

So I went to my interview at the Newbury Comics warehouse in Boston and everything went fine, I got a second interview coming up soon so hopefully I'll get this job.  I got the worst sunburn of my life when I decided to lay out on the boston commons...I fell asleep for like an hour and now I'm in crippling pain.

BUT I came home and found out I was accepted to UMass Dartmouth so that was fucking AWSOME because I was really hopping I'd get in because it'd be cheaper and I could live there.  So we shall see!

I think I'm gonna go take a shower then bathe in Aloe Vera.

all ends in cussing and crying

So today I decided it was time to upgrade my earrings for new spiral plugs.  Being at a 12g pierce I decided skipping to an 8g would CLEARLY be the intelligent solution.  Needless to say it stung a tad but nothing too too bad.  They look bitchin, I cant decided if I want to wear them fully spiraled in or dangling from the top curve.

At the moment I can't stop moving them around which is really bad for them.  The ones I got are acrylic but I want to get some Bison bone ones that I saw off GUARD designs site.

BAND OF THE NIGHT!!!!

Where did all the sad songs go

Lately I've had a huge resurgence in my love for 80's music.  Compiling a list of them to fit for a perfect mix took some time and I finally did it.  

The list is as follows:

A-Ha - Take on Me

Visage - Fade to Grey

The Talking Heads - Once in a Lifetime 

The Auteurs - Rubettes

Bronski Beat - Small Town Boy

The Cramps - Can't Hardly Stand It

Culture Club - Karma Chameleon

Men Without Hats - Pop Goes The World

The Cure - Friday I'm in Love

The Smiths - William, It Was Really Nothing

Bauhaus - She's in Parties

Sonic Youth - Superstar

Joy Division - Shadowplay

My Bloody Valentine - Come in Alone

Dead or Alive - You Spin Me Right Round

The Waitresses - I Know What Boys Want

I'm very satisfied with the mix as a whole.  For some who don't know the band I mentioned, The Auteurs, They are a British pop/shoegaze band that never really made it big over here so I will post a youtube video of them.

Later Gators.

10 10 10 10 FOR EVERYTHING EVERYTHING EVERYTHING EVERYTHING

So my Grandma's health has really taken a turn for the worst with her kidneys failing from the chemo treatment.  They don't really expect her to live that much longer.

I really need to leave this town and quite possibly this state... 

I'm Dreaming of Places Where Lovers Have Wings

Yesterday was stressful and long.  I don't know why but everything seems to go wrong at the most inoppertune times...not that there is a great time for things to go wrong but still.

Hopefully things will get better soon.

Other then that I've started doing my collage work inside boxes of Nat Sherman Cigarette boxes.  The pictures one of the recent ones I have done, we'll see where this will evolve to.

I shaved my head tonight because a few people I know are going through Chemo soon and we all decided it was mohawks.

I need sleep, 3 bennis and I'm dead...
