Goodbye Social Life, We Had A Good Run.

Holy Moly.
When did it all of a sudden become 2 days before Thanksgiving break? And why did I just notice ALL of the work I have to get done? Time has flown by, and crap. What have I been doing that has 'prevented' me from getting my shit together? True, I have had a very social semester, so no issues on that front. But now I'm a little bit worried. Between now and finals week this is my check list: build a wooden box, finish a metal sculpture, start and finish a ceramic installation that has 100 pieces, install a show, finish final photos for 3 class...not to mention go to work. Pretty much, I need to say good bye to my social life and get my college life together. But I really don't like the sound of that at all. 

On a completely different note, for those of you who don't know, I work at Campus Callers. Pretty much I call alumni for money. Awesome way to spend 3 nights a week. I know. I can feel your jealousy already. So tonight we started calling my college, College of Fine Arts and Mass Communication. First off: those people are not very happy to be hearing from me. And second: they don't have any money to be giving. So this makes me nervous for my future. I only had 1 out of 105 calls that was doing something in the art world. Shit. Is that what I will be doing with my art degree that I've worked so hard for? Being a massage therapist? Clearly today has been overwhelming for many a reason. 
I would love to say I'm off to get a beer with friends, but that is the last thing I have time for. Sigh
Studio 
here I come. 

This is my 1st of 2 ceramic installations I'm working on. 100 pieces baby. Now time to start/finish the second one. Can you feel my stress yet?
