I got me grr face on >8(

I can't fall asleep, damnit. I've been up since 8am yesterday and ended up running around all day between work, my radioshow, various errands...etc. Once midnight rolled around, I decided I should go to bed. Before I slipped under my covers, I drank some of the cough syrup that was prescribed to me last week, that of which supposedly houses codeine. Either the bottle has lies written all over it, or codeine has reverse effects on me. I've been taking that syrup since last Wednesday, and it doesn't help me sleep one bit. As a matter of fact, my brain tends to become even more active than it normally is when I try to go to bed after drinking that liar juice (most of my artistic ideas typically come to me when I'm trying to go to sleep...it's my brain's creative prime-time).

So here I am, writing a blog at 3:30 in the goddamn morning. The first time I got up was around 1 am, because I finally figured out how the floor needs to be organized and decorated when I do my thesis show (coming this spring to an art gallery near you). I arose from my faux slumber a second time to write down new painting ideas that decided to make appearances in my overactive noggin. Finally, after Assiqtaq roused me so she could play and urinate in the freshly fallen snow, I decided it was time to give in.

Insomnia is a harsh mistress, and today, I'm her sleep deprived bitch.

Bah! Enough of my whining...here are some pictures of Assiqtaq playing and urinating in the snow. (Hey, at least I'm not a liar...stupid syrup).

Crap I'm Proud Of

Numero Uno :

I have my very own studio space! It's a cozy little nook tucked away in the BFA/MFA-students' turf...the painting studio's basement. My teacher even made a shelf for me when he noticed that I was still painting the nesting dolls for my "Old Lady" stop-motion animation.

I finally have a comfortable place to work.

When I'm down there, I never want to leave.



Numero Dos:

I actually got around to taking pictures of the bulletin board I designed for KSUA. I basically printed the 4' x 8' image on 8.5" x 11" sheets of paper, and then stapled them together. I thought it would end up looking sloppy, but was pleasantly surprised when I proved myself wrong.

KSUA has turned out to be yet another artistic outlet for the creative cat within me...watch as I purr with a fork in hand... *¡Zapp!*

If you liked long cat...

...then you're going to love LONG DOG!

I got to watch Pike for a day, and he is oh so very loooooooooooong. I made a video with footage of both Assiqtaq and himself, to demonstrate his mighty length:



I tried to take pictures, but the size difference wasn't as obvious.

Birds gotta fly...

...and fish get added to KSUA cork boards when I'm program director.

This is a design I've been wanting to create for a while. I'm hoping that it will make KSUA's hallway look presentable. The original file is designed to fit the 4' x 8' board outside the DJ booth.



I made birdies to post around it, too! ^^ I want to make this one a shirt:

KSUA for Prez, laaaadies ;D

It has recently been revealed that KSUA 91.5 FM College, a Fairbanks based radio station, will also be running for President this year.

I was asked by KSUA personally to create bumper stickers for this momentous occasion.

This is what has kept me up until 5 in the morning today. I'd complain, but it was more entertaining than cutting circles out of cardboard (which will soon be sculpted into a squid...hopefully. I'll touch more on that subject later).

So anyway, this is what I have so far. Enjoy it now, because it is subject to change.

'Night sleepyheads.

Lookie what I found!

These are the types of things I find while walking to work:



You can weave so many stories in your head when seeing two objects, such as these, lying next to one another near the sidewalk.

Were the condoms defective, hence the need for the pregnancy test?

Did the purchaser decide to celebrate (this time, well equipped with condoms) once the pregnancy results came up negative?!

Were the items discarded by the same person, or were they littered near each other by chance?

Only DNA tests will tell.
