Inspiration from a magazine

So, last night at chapters I bought a Photoshop magazine. It had a free CD and a bunch of tutorials. I've already taken two of them and done some work with them and I have put the new brushes and tools to good work as well. You can see them here http://erochichi.deviantart.com/

Tell me what you think!

May the Road Rise to Meet You

I might be going to Ireland this summer! So far we have calculated that I have about half of the cost. This is all coming from the cost of stuff I would have been doing (i.e. jazz camp), money from my grandfather to go towards my education, and equivalent costs to Harris' and Cameron's summer activities.Plus, I could use this as a big Christmas+ Birthday gift. Then, I just need to get a job, a heck of a lot of housework, or get my lessons started.

Oh, and apparently the mailmen tear down any flyers or posters on the mailboxes so that option is out. I'm going to put them up in community centers and grocery stores if I don't apply at little music schools like The Kanata Music Academy (Kim- Do you know if I need any RCM stuff to get in there?) or apply for a job at a Starbucks or Chapters or the like.

Long weekend....woot....

Due to my apparent boredom yesterday my parents decided to give me $40 and told me to find something to do today. Only problem with that is that I can't change people's schedules.

At first I was like- "Fine, I'll go to the anime con after all."
So, I attempt to reach Liz, to no avail. I then phone Genna and ask her whether or not it's worth going to which she answers- "No."

On to Plan B- The mall. I ask Ryan if he'd want to go with me and Tasha and he says "Sure." So, I phone Tasha and she can't go because she wants to be sure she'll be back on time for her NaNoWriMo get-together. Understandable. At this point Plan B has turned into a major sausage fest. Abort.

So, Plan C. I sit at home all day, watch 3 hours of MTV Real Life, eat ketchup chips, play gameboy ROM's, clean out of utter boredom, then walk the dog. It was bloody cold today.

After my very eventful day I cap it off with some sort of bland beef strogenoff (that is so spelled wrong), a trip to Chapters ( got a job app) where I buy only one book, a stop at Loblaws for a whirlwind shopping experience (it was closing soon) and then to Rogers to drop off some movies.

On the plus side I now have $40...

I Need A Job

This weekend has been so boring. I know the long weekend is supposed to be crazy fun but it really isn't when everyone is busy (or in some people's cases locked up). I had a great time going to lunch on Friday and then recording but everything from there is downhill. I even got bored of video games.

So, I've decided indefinitely the job hunt begins tomorrow!

Hopefully, by the end of the month I will have a job. Maybe then I'll start saving up for a tenor sax that stays in tune.

To blog or not to blog? Depends on how bored I am.

So, thought I would set up a blog for no reason really. Don't have anything to say really but maybe other people I know will start to blog after they read this. Guess that's it for now.

Until I have something to say,
