Well, well, well. Salutations friends! its been 2 years since i have written a journal on DA, and personally i think that is too long. So let me fill you in on multiple topics.

To start, today i had my wisdom teeth removed...and zomgoggles. I mean if you are accustomed to drooling blood, constant stabbing pain on both sides of your mouth and a tongue that feels foreign and numb...its not so bad. im essentially allowed to eat solid food, but i imagine if i did a few moments later i would be screaming wildly. The plus side is the icecream, my mother and sister...bless them...went out and jammed as much icecream as they could into the freezers. im actually lying down right now as i write this too you...tissue dangling from my mouth.

School, honestly im not too sure how im gonna go about it atm. i dont really know what i wanna get into...or even where i wanna go. I had tossed the idea of going to AIP around, or CCAD..but im not sure. At this point, im thinking i wanna get into cinematography and also have a chance to write stories, then screenplays...and if i go that far, maybe acting.

Love life, gotta say its rather interesting. I am currently talking with someone right now and i am excited about it. I havent held down a steady relationship for some time now, and i gotta say i wonder if there is something wrong with me. I usually tire quickly or lose interest after the initial pre-dating is over. Possibly my hatred to be forced into a schedule, or the feeling of having a leash...in either case thats not good. (id like feedback here)

Art, i have been drawing from time to time, but mostly i havent had time for it. Usually a quick doodle or sketch in my notebook is all i get time for these days. As some of you might have noticed i have found increasing amounts of enjoyment from drawing people. something i never liked to draw before. Even if most of them are essentially characterizations of myself, it is fun. I found that i have an immense love of the human body, frankly its fascinating. And probably because im a guy, i have a very dear love of the female physique, women are built like goddesses and i love drawing them.

Games! its a sad thing to say but i dont really play many consoles anymore. Or at least not as much as i used too. Ive been caught up in playing warcraft as of late, which in all honesty...i kind of hate. I love the interaction with other people, and the competitive PVP. but its a hole in my wallet, and a far worse addiction than any console i own. For the time being though however, i am still playing it.

Friends. its been pretty crazy of late as far as friends go. My best friend is getting married here soon, and im too be a groomsman. I suppose ive always known it was gonna happen sooner or later but its still shocking when you first hear about it. Also, im too be a godfather in the unlikely event he has children in the near future...im pretty excited about that. Ive met a lot of new friends lately, and gotten in tough with old ones. But ive also lost friends, and that still weighs heavy on my heart. I dont know if its in my nature, but ive never given up friends easily. Some friends have moved on, and we've fallen out of touch...but this is life.

Family. My sister, my other half is going away to college here soon. I am excited for her, for she is the kind of person who has always been good at school. It hasnt hit me yet, but i know i will miss her dearly for we have grown much closer in the past couple of months. My grandparents moved from NJ to Ohio so that we can take care of them. Every Tuesday and Thursday, i pick them so that they can come exercise with me. My parents are starting to feel the pressure as the economy moves closer to recession, and for those who havent seen it yet...it is happening and a depression is not out of the equation.

Im sorry to rant but this was for me as much as it was for you. Ive had a lot on my mind lately.
Please feel free to inquire about whatever you wish. And be ready for the next journal i write will probably not be so serious.
