I'm down to 12 messages! SUCCESS! I've spent all evening going through journals, reading comments, and commenting those who faved my art o_o It's been busy.
Life in general. I'm a senior, and I'm terrified, because soon, I have to decide what to do with my life. I'm seriously undermotivated these days, because I'm so stressed out all the time; if I've been mean or snarky to anyone on DA, I'm SO SORRY. When I'm stressed, I get rude and terrible and turn into a bitch. But on top of DQ, I have the hardest math class evar, biology (which is a freshman class, and they failed to tell me it was required until NOW so I'm in there with a bunch of freshies-- which is okay, I love freshies, but if one more person asks me if I'm in there cause I've failed before, I'll knock their teeth in. ...see what I mean about being snarky?)
It seems like there's never enough time for anything these days :C School snarfs up a large majority of my time. If this tells you anything, one of my homework assignments in that God-forsaken math class had 500 problems. And it doesn't count toward your grade, but you get detention if you don't do it-- the ONLY GRADES THEY TAKE ARE TEST GRADES.
On a brighter note, I went to a drive-in for the first time last night! It was fantastical, except that it rained :C
Evansville is also where I think I want to move when I get older. It's pretty much my favorite place to be, I go there every chance I get. Except STORY TIME!
There's this creepy little town called New Harmony on the way to Evansville, and my mom was like, "Hmmm, that sounds like a cute little town. Let's take a jaunt down this side road and see what it is," and of course, I'm always game for exploring. BUT. We drove, and drove, and drove (supposedly it's only twelve miles from Mt. Vernon, Indiana, to New Harmony, but it sure as heck FELT like a lot longer than that) and finally, we went down this super steep hill; we were entering a valley. And y'know those signs that say "Caution, School Bus Stop" or whatever? Well, this had a big yellow sign that said "Caution, Cemetery". Okay. I started to get the willies a little. But it gets weirder.
We drove down this hill, and on either side of us, slanting up, is this cemetery. And all the tombstones look so old. We finally get into this little town and it's full of the RANDOMEST buildings-- some look a hundred years old, some look brand new. But everyone stopped on the sidewalks, dropped whatever they were doing, and stared as we went past. And then, at the end of Main Street, there was this church, and it was so pretty, and then a horse-drawn carriage went past, with a bride in a beautiful dress, and while everyone else was staring at us, the people in the carriage acted like they didn't even see us. MAJOR CREEPINESS. Mom and I turned around to leave, cause we were both seriously wigging out. And on the way back out, we passed a sign that just said "Labyrinth". They had a LABYRINTH in their town! I found what the other side of the sign said, and it said: "THE LABYRINTH. Symbolic of the Harmonist concept of the devious and difficult approach to a true state of harmony." It was apparently started by "Harmonists" a really long time ago? It's scary, not gonna lie.
I definitely need to be, y'know, DOING stuff. But I love DA so much, and I'm all sad, cause I'm never on anymore :C
Off to go and work on a commision.
