She's Coming...

I'm finding it a little hard to believe that I'm actually halfway through the semester. The weeks have just been passing by so fast... and yet, I just took a midterm, and my computer art class is almost over, so it must be so. Speaking of that class (which is on block schedule, so its last day is Monday), I must've spent over ten hours this weekend finishing up all of the assignments that are due. I mean, luckily it's a pretty fun class, so I didn't really mind doing those assignments, but it's still a lot of time, especially when I also have a large drawing due on Monday and a brochure and cover to design for my mom's book ASAP. At least I have some fun things to show for all that effort, though (or at least I think so). For example, a lovely self portrait:


Looks just like me, right? ;) I also have a very lovely room (and don't judge me--my professor told me to just let the chair float so it would fit in with the linear perspective, but I needed something to explain the floating chair, so...):


An extremely useful chart documenting my level of alertness everytime the snooze alarm goes off in the morning (notice how my level of alertness skyrockets the very last time it goes off when I realize that I only have 30 minutes to get to class):


And... this:


Apparently there was a reason I edited all those voodoo doll pictures, and this is it. I still don't completely know what to think about this... but it was lots of fun to make! I wish you could see it in all its glory, but I had to get it down to a pretty small file size to upload to Blogger, which involved a lot more work than I thought it would :P Rest assured that, viewed at its full size, it's very cool.

And... that's pretty much the gist of everything we did in my computer art class. Will I miss it? Well, it was a lot of fun, but it did start at 8 in the morning, and now that it's over school doesn't start until 11, so... I think I'll be okay ;)

Oh, and beware the Egyptian voodoo doll. She's coming...
