bummer.

Yeah, so i can't actually afford that painting class i was raving about after all. i dropped the only other class i had (couldn't afford books), and that in turn gave UMA the excuse to cut all my funding except a Pell Grant. the Grant itself was cut in half. so AFTER the Grant went in, i still owe them $583. and i SO don't have that kind of money and i know i won't be able to make enough commissions by TOMORROW to pay it, i'm gonna have to drop it.

i'm really really unhappy about this. i mean, i can get work done of my own volition, that's not the problem. i lose that setting. i lose working with a bunch of other art students, i lose that feedback and inspiration. and i lose critiques. i mean my friends on y! gal have been really good about helping me with my Thriving Ivy piece, but it's still not the same.

the plus sides here tho are: i have more time to collect/finish commissions and portfolio work of my own choosing, and that extra day could probably get me another shift at work. i'd love to be able to afford my own studio space (shared of course).

and on that note, commissions are still open. thanks, luvs.

p.s. I SEE U WATCHIN ME LEELEE.
