HEYYYYYY!!!!!
Sorry I've been M.I.A. Those MySpacers have taken me hostage. It seems that no one is posting on here and that's too bad. One of my friends said "Welcome to MySpace. I told you Livejournal was so last year." To be honest, I was offended by that comment. Although it may be good to network with, I prefer Livejournal for some good, hardcore blogging. I probably won't make too many friends on here, and that again, is too bad. But I will loyally continue to post and hopefully, people will catch on.
My life is really no different that it was the last time I was on here. The spring semester ended and I received excellent grades and now I'm preparing to work full time during the summer. I found a job at New Orleans GlassWorks and Printmaking Studio, which is a very awesome place to be!!! I am going to be learning the fine art of glassblowing in August and I am psyched! It is intimidating, but I'm willing to accept the challenge. I am also attempting to get my artwork shown in local and nationwide exhibitions, so wish me luck! It is harder than I expected it be, but you gotta start somewhere, right?
New Orleans' recovery effort is slow-moving. We just re-elected our mayor, Ray Naquin. I am hoping that he's learned a few things from our experiences and that he will be the right choice for us. This year's hurricane season starts on June 1st and many of us locals are concerned. I will support the man because he has the balls to stand up to our government! He makes mistakes, but so do we. We are all human.
On another note: I NEED NEED NEED to start doing my yoga again. I have let it go for far too long. My body is yelling at me every morning. To add to it, I'm not getting any younger and by not stretching and relaxing, I am starting to feel aged. In the midst of all the stress, I've managed to put a lot on the backburner.
I'll be 30 in January and although it seems a ways off, it really isn't. The only thing I've kept in my view is my degree. I graduate in December! It's almost surreal. I think about it and I was out of school for about 5 years. It bothers me to no end that I haven't finished, so here I am, trying to reach that #1 goal.
After I get my degree, I think I may move out to California for a couple of years, maybe NYC, I don't know. I think I need to get out of here for a little while and let New Orleans recover. I'll go back....I know I will. There is no other place in the world like New Orleans! It is comfortable. It is eclectic. It is home.
I am going to keep this journal connected with my MySpace account. I figure that they both complement each other nicely. I will keep you posted on any and all updates: my art, my brother's band, friends in exile, etc...
Until then, livejournal.....
Cheers,
Tish
