I guess it has been a while since I have updated this wonderful thing called DeviantArt. The last journal wasa touch depressing, reading over it. So I guess it's time for a happy one. I have been hired on at my internship at Creative Media Cubed. They specialize in corporate and Web development. It's been a lot of fun an I feel like I could really learn a lot there. I'm excited to have actually found a job in my field after so many years of school. The Mac still isn't fixed, but it will be shortly now that I'm working on it. Word of note, if anyone is ever in Barrie Ontario, do not go to Mac Solutions. He did not do a good job and I had to pay him for basically opening up the laptop. I found it very unprofessional that he did not even asses the problems that he could fix, and he had it for 8 weeks and did nothing.
As well i'm a little sick right now. Viruses are fun

I figure I haven't been here in a bit and some people might be wondering where I have disappeared to. My Mac is currently not operational, so my computer time is rather limited. (I'm using my old PC which I had to dust off and hook up) So I don't get online much. The second part is my entire semester of work is on the Mac's Hard drive, and it's where I do all my art work, so needless to say it's a catch for me. I was hoping to apply for jobs, actual Graphic Design jobs, but without access to my files I can't get my resume, or my portfolio ready. lol, oh what a world. Never mind that it has been a holiday of a few disappointments for me. Man, lol. No job, no money, no friends in the immediate area, the girl I was seeing turned out to be a disappointment, some of my family fell through for a trip I was planning so I couldn't go. I'm surprised i'm in good spirits at all haha. But we must continue on, and what doesn't kill us will only make us stronger. I( will update as soon as my computer is fixed and get the rest of my stuff up here

I needed an update, and this one seemed to be apt timing.
I'm overloaded...That is all.

Well it's been a little while since I updated, and last time I updated I was feeling a little down, so What is a better time to update than when I'm feeling a little up lol. I'm currently at home, away from the apartment in Presscott. I might be done the job around August 1st, so that's an exciting thing. I can last another 4 weeks easy. I'm still sitting at a summer with no Artwork, I have a commission to do for a friend of mine, a logo and a business card. Which has to be done sometime next week, So I guess i'll have something done soon then. Have some ideas from the beginning of summer which I never got around to, working a lot tends to kill your creative Brain. Which is probably why I want to work in a creative field lol. I can't wait till school, a little nervous with the cost of Gas, I don't know if I should move into Barrie or commute, but it's up in the air still, we might be getting a car that is cheaper on Gas so, we'll see. Otherwise, I'm in a great mood, and so happy at home. So drop me a line, I miss the contact people.
32 Days till Job completion, 64 Days till School beings

I'll be honest, I don't much prefer summer. For reasons stated previously in my other journal. However when I wrote that, I hadn't know where I was going to be or what I was going to be doing.
I'm living about 5 hours from home, in a place called Prescott, which is just shy of Cornwall (where I was born actually) and I'm rather bored most of the time. All of my friends are back at home and I miss them, it's been just over a month since I have been here, 4 paychecks worth of time actually, and I counted that I have 16-17 weeks of total time to be here. I took the offer because the money was good, but it has solidified in my mind how happy I am to have my chosen career. Every other job seems so lackluster and pointless now, I'm truly unhappy about the situation I'm in. If it weren't for the monetary need, i'd probably go home. Saying such, home isn't even where I want to be. I just want to be in close approximation to the people that make me happy, it's a selfish want really. I have grown out of the experiences which were so predominant in my earlier life, that the same joys and activities which brought so much happiness to my life in previous years have become dull and a waste of precious resources and time. My friend, one of my best in fact and I'd say would be my best friend, is still entrenched in this lifestyle and I can't seem to take part in it any longer. I never thought i'd give up a friendship because of different ideals, and I haven't yet. I'm concerned that I may not be a friend of his for a long period of time, that perhaps i've outgrown him, or my lifestyle and choices are different. It's odd what happens as you grow older. The typical experiences that you sought after for so long lose merit, and you find your taste for these things is no more. I'm more inclined now to have a relaxing coffee and a sit down and talk with those of like minds. I prefer the company of one or two others who will make me laugh and enjoy the day with a few simple words, rather than the ramblings of an overcrowded hot spot of pent up sexual frustrations, where the only utterances of intelligence are derived from the ultimate goal of releasing said pent up frustrations. I've changed in the last year, and this last month has proven it to me. So as of now i'm counting down to my release from this little nightmare I call summer, and to my escape back into the world i've come to love.

13 weeks 3 days and counting
