quitting the nicotine! ... again

Mon Aug 31, 2009, 7:57 AM
The last angry journal entry's been up for a little while now so i figured it was a good time to shed the grumpy pants and focus on what's good in life.

Turns out not much, haha. Today is day one of my how-manyieth attempt to quit smoking and sofar I've lost my access badge at work and almost got hit by a car while crossing the street (completely my fault). Somewhere out there, a driver is pissed at me. I decided it was worth dropping the cigs once again after having one last night, and feeling a certain numbness going down my left arm as i was inhaling. The moment the cig was discarded, the numbness went away. And that gave me the scare of a lifetime. No nic-fix is worth a heart attack or worse.

So I'm treating this as sort of a "make a habit to counter your habit" type mentality. See how long I can procrastinate on having another cig. And I'm a damned good procrastinator, if I've learned anything about myself.

So here goes nothing.

I miss our quality time too. It's hard not having anyone to inspire any form of creativity in me. I have to resort to art sites and forums that only piss me off at how much better other people are than me.

Take however much time you need to cool off - I've given up trying to figure you out a long time ago. Still love you, though I can't figure out why for the life of me.

That sounds like an insult couched in a compliment. So what you're saying is you think you're a better artist than me and thus I don't piss you off >_<

I thought I'd draw more here and I guess I "kinda" have but... not enough really (is it ever?) so much to do, so little time -_-U

lol - leave it to you to find insults where there is none to be found. If only you could do that with your inspiration eh? :p

No, what i meant was i only have art forums to inspire me now, and with the sheer number of people on forums, there's bound to be people i see there who are better than me which pisses me off.

When you get back, we'll have a giant draw fest. 1 hour of nothing but circle scribbles to warm up (rembmer when i made you do that? lol) and then another 2 hours of real drawing, hahaa. Can't wait.

hey, I'm plenty inspired these days, it's just the actually making myself do something about it that's difficult. And it's not like I'm seeing that much new stuff out of you either >_<

I'm trying to stop the whole 'being pissed/jealous of other artists' it's bad karma. Also, I figure if I probably tried/worked harder I'd be just as good but I y'know... don't. ((Hey did you hear Deborah and Jim god engaged?!?!?!)

Cool. We still have to have an art day with Aneiz and Zoe when we all get back (woot!)

I graduated in March from the old Game Art and Design program (which was only 6 quarters, I heard they extended it to 8).

Still, nice to meet ya!

Actually I was supposed to graduate in March but I extended it to June. But since I'm way behind on my demo reel I'm extending it to September haha.
I have the same GAD program, 6 quarters.
