I've been meaning to write in my blog for a while. I just don't have enough time. But here we go.
Life is pretty exciting right now. I am so busy with school, but I LOVE it! This spring semester has helped me grow so much as a person and as a student... not so much as a wife though :( My loving husband is so nice to me, he doesn't even mention anything. I've been trying to focus so much on school that I feel like I don't have enough time to clean, make super delicious meals and just take care of Danny. Spring semester is almost over though. So hopefully things will change in a little. Somehow we are still able to have so much fun together. It's so nice to have him around. He is very supportive of all I do.
So right now I have one of my art pieces hanging in the 5th floor of the HFAC! So if you have a couple of minutes to stop by please do :) It's been there since last week. And I have to take it down on the 20th (last day of spring term). I was worried I wasn't going to be able to finish it because I had to go to TX for a few days so I missed class and pretty much lost like 4 or 5 days of work. I finished it though. It was a miracle! It was so fun to frame it and everything. Danny took some pictures for me yesterday.
My assignment was to pick a story from Mother Goose and make it more modern. I picked a nursery rhyme called "Little Boy Blue"
Little Boy Blue
Come blow your horn.
The sheep's in the meadow;
The cow's in the corn.
Where's the little boy who looks
after the sheep?
He's under the haystack fast asleep
My last day of school was on Thursday. We don't really have a final exam. We just need to redo all our assignments (it's not necessary.. only if we want a higher grade) and also we are working on creating our own website :) I'm so excited!!!! I've been working on creating my own website to put some of my art pieces and be able to work and stuff. I've been so blessed during this semester! First of all, I was able to get into my Digital Illustration class which I think it has helped know that I don't need to wait to have a degree to work as an Illustrator. I really appreciate all the advice from my professor. She truly likes to help.
Couple of things I'm doing:
-I took some engagement pictures for Matt and Rachel! So right now I'm editing all the photos. We took them at Utah Lake. It was fun.
-I'm also going to be designing the logo for the BYU Neuromechanics lab.
-This one is not 100% sure yet but I might also be designing 2 more logos for a website. A friend that graduate from BYU a few years ago is creating 2 websites. One is about the ocean and the other one is about reading.
I love my major! I just love learning everything I can to become a better artist.
Yesterday was a wonderful Sunday. It was way fun. We only had 2 kids in primary. We taught about forgiveness. W have really good kids. We seriously have the best calling. After church we went to Ron's apt to skype with my dad for Father's day. I just want to mention that I have the BEST DAD EVER! He is a great example to me. He sacrifices so much for us. I don't tell him enough how grateful I am for everything he does. But he really is the best :) After we were done skyping, Danny and I went to the HFAC to take my pictures. Then we went to a friend's apt. to have dinner with them and play games. It was way fun! Brandon is one of Danny's friend. They were TA's together, they've taken a few classes together, and he's slept over at our apt a couple of times (working on long engineering homework). Brandon is a really fun guy. He just graduated. This is his last semester and then he is going to Pennsylvania. His girlfriend is really cool too. She planned this surprise good-bye party thing for him. She made dinner for all of us. There were probably around 10-15 people. After dinner we played a game called Wackee Six. It was so fun. I forgot how much I like playing card games. We stayed there till almost 11pm playing with them. I'm a little sad that a lot of Danny's friends are leaving after spring term. We are going to need to find new friends :)
So tomorrow is Danny and my 6th month anniversary! Can't believe we've been married for half a year already. Time flies by so fast. I'm so excited :)) Danny is taking me out to eat at Red Lobster. I love that place! I'm a big fan of sea food. I need to plan something for him too I guess :)
Anyways.... I need to go to campus and be productive.
