fine for now

i got my first comment on this blog today. it may not seem like a big deal, but i'm really working hard on this. thank you, maggie! your blog is awesome. added it to my bookmarks :) i've started a notebook for all the ideas i have flowing from the INDIE e-conference. i have so much i want to do and say. so much i want to post! for now, though, i'll just go with what i planned and not become a pain in posting five billion times a day, unless i feel something has substance.

i went home sick from work today. i started to get dizzy shelving books and i couldn't stop coughing/sneezing. i felt so terrible for every child that i saw. my thoughts immediately went to please don't get sick, kid...not because of me. i only lasted 3 hours into my shift. i slept the afternoon away in the hopes of feeling better. slightly better, no longer dizzy. i caught up on the e-conference and now onto my post:

in high school, i was required to keep a research workbook for my ib art class junior and senior year (2005-2007). at the time, i hated it. i couldn't really keep up with it that well and a lot of the time, the night before it was due, i would stay up until 3am, doing research, writing bullshit entries. i now see why it was so important. i chose photographers/artists and pieces that inspired me and my work. i also had to chronicle the work i was doing. i missed it! i started a new "inspiration" book and i have been slacking lately, but i think i'm ready to get back into it.
