Dec. 7th, 2004 01:25 amSo I'm cool and I just finished a painting - my final project - for my class on South Africa. I really like it a lot; I do believe it's the best painting I've ever done (lol, which probably isn't saying much).
Thus, I ( share it with you. )
The image is large, but that's the only way to get the full effect, I think.
Also, here's a ( self-portrait I did about a year ago. )
That image is also slightly large, but again, the only way to get the full effect.
So. What's new in LJ friendland? I haven't been doing much of late. Working on final projects, take-home finals, fixing and improving friendships and other relationships, etc. I'm trying to be a better friend, because lord knows I suck at it sometimes.
I have one final next week, in health. I'm a little apprehensive, because I really need to do very well on said final. Speaking of health, I ran a mile and a half yesterday in 16 minutes for my health lab's final fitness testing component. That's ugly, because it averages out to over a 10-minute mile, and I have definitely done miles in the past two weeks at 8:54, 8:57, 9:24, and other glorious times. Oh, well. I could have done better, but whatever.
Wow, I'm really tired. Perhaps I should get to bed. Methinks I shall. Oh! But before I go, I saw two very good movies of note this past week -- Vanilla Sky on Saturday (that was really trippy, if very high in the "willing suspension of disbelief" factor), and La Chamber Verte (The Green Room) today. I HIGHLY recommend both, but ESPECIALLY the latter. The Green Room is not a movie that leaves you easily, methinks. BTW, it's in French, but it's definitely available with subtitles.
So now, bed.
EDIT: P.S. JESS! I sent your Christmas present today. :D
