Yay! Woot! After about four months of searching I have a job as a computer lab assistant for an appartment complex. However, I'm more so a tutor and a daycare leader. I get paid work study and I don't get to work that many hours, but it's something. I start next week. Yesterday I took an exam for...
Well, my plans to get more sleep didn't work out last night. I'm beat. No napping until after the furnace guy comes though. argh. I'm trying to stay awake. He said he'd be here "late morning", so I'm guessing I still have an hour or two yet, but it would be just my luck I'd nod off and not hear him...
Hi everyone and thank you for coming! Let me take a moment to introduce myself: Seriously,I'm 36 years old, I have a husband and 3 kids all boys. My husband and I own a heating and air conditioning business, I work on The Psychic Caravan a division of A-Z Entertainment, I make lots of crafts that...
Still fighting my funk. It's the mornings that are the worst. It's so difficult to get our of bed each day. More of the same. Not that the same is bad! No, not at all. It's just monotonous. Work has my brain all tied up in terrible knots with words and procedures and I really don't feel like I'm...
Drawing class is going extremely well after only two classes. In the second class we learned to use the shapes we'd been taught to draw with in first week in a series of layers. It's amazing how quickly and accurately I can sketch relatively simple things now. I'm really thrilled. Craig is doing...
So I realized I hadn't been posting on here as recently as I thought. So! Just an update here. School has been on going for about a month now. I've gotten into the flow of things. I'm not procrastinating as much because I haven't watched TV in about 2 weeks (yea, I know! so long!) and I hopefully...
Well, it has been a while since I've made a post. I've been pretty much busy with school work. I can't wait until I get a day off. However, I like my classes. Yesterday, I meet up with someone. For over a year we did not talk to each other. I had written a news article that reported some events that...
Drawing class looks to be a really good experience. I totally lucked out because we're learning a technique I've never been taught before, not in any of my previous art classes or any of the books I've studied, and it's the sketching technique I've always wanted someone to teach me. I've always been...
I'm back and ready to bring you all the latest in Aubrey news. Hope everyone who was in Hurricane Ike's path is okay. It was, for the most part, a non-event here in Tyler (some power outages and a few downed trees)...I only left to avoid the crazy, panic-driven assholes in this town who push and...
Okay, so I haven't written anything substantial here in awhile. Boo hoo. I was assigned to write a piece of fiction for a class I am taking, and honestly, I don't much like it. I use Mark Twain's philosophy of writing uncontrollable characters into wells. Except, this time, with no desire or time...
Hoo-boy. School is back. Again. So predictable. I had four months to hide, and when time was up, I was still sitting at my desk takking away at the keyboard, half-naked and oblivious to the outside world. At least I got some things done this summer, set some things in motion, gave myself a reason to...
I have received a lot of e-mails recently asking about my teaching schedule. I have a few classes coming up this Fall and so I thought it would be a good idea to post a list here, then I can e-mail a link to those who inquire. I'll try to keep this updated and change it as necessary. Saturday,...
The "Clashing Combines" derby Wednesday night was a hoot! It was exactly what the name promised, a demolition derby for combines (large farming vehicles, for you city folk *wink*). It was awesome, and yet slow. Those leviathans of the field... well they don't exactly have a lot of pick-up. It was...
I figured it was about time I posted something on what I'm actually studying up here at the good old PSU. Here's a run down on my classes and the question circling endlessly in my head... am I quantitative or qualitative? First of all, what the heck is Mass Comm anyway, right? Watch this video if...
It's strange. I mean, it just feels strange. As a little kid I used to think that my hometown'd just be too small for me, not up to snuff, and I'd think of Helsinki as some sort of Grand Gateway to the World - a welcome but somewhat arbitrary respite on my way to taking over ( and out) the World. I...
Well, it's certainly been awhile. I'd really like to start updating daily. Lets see if I can stick to it. I've made a lot of changes to my life since I last posted. I've finally seen a psychiatrist who diagnosed me with bipolar disorder and put me on Seroquel. At first I could really tell the...
Well, we had our first three workshops at Chicago College of Performing Arts (CCPA) this past week. Wednesday: Monologue Showings to Graduate Faculty Thursday: Acting Workshop Friday: Voice Workshop in the morning, Movement Workshop in the afternoon I'll just move chronologically here. The monologue...
Um. Ok. I understand that the environment is important. But I wish my textbooks felt like it was written interestingly and in English or something. (Alright, it is English... but it doesn't feel that way.) I also wish I knew what the hell anything really meant. I mean, I'm hating my Painting class...
I'm finally at the end of my classes with today being the last day!!! It seems like it's been a long eight weeks since I had my focus here, but I should be back in to this more, now that I'm done. Thanks to all my friends for being patient!
