Well, April has arrived leaving behind a rather uneventful March. At school, March is the month of deadlines and registration. Registration is always a nightmare since I am two different departments, of which have registration at two different times and which occur in very different manners. Art registration is a week earlier than English, and requires that you show up to wait in line at 6 a.m. in the morning (that is if you want to get the classes that you need). English requires an appointment with an advisor before you register (to approve your course selection) but the trick is that they send out an email to announce that they are taking appointments, and you have to race down to the department as quickly as possible to get an early appointment (again, that is if you want to get the classes you need). It's all rather rediculous and apparently they are the only departments that do this (lucky me :o)). Anyway, I got the classes I needed and hopefully fall will prove to be a bit more pleasant than this spring semester. All of the scholarship deadlines hit about the same time, along with midterms, etc., so all in all it was a blah month.
Somewhere in all of that, my birthday came and went. Kermit made me a nice dinner to celebrate.
Weather has been quite nice lately. Not too hot, not too cold, not too much of anything. Hopefully, I can spend a little time relaxing and catching up on my sleep this month.
I have made a couple of friends at school that are around my age. It's actually rather nice, because we all get along and seem to be dealing with the same issues at school.
Oh, before I forget I did get in a 3-D juried exhibit at school. It was with a piece I recently did and here is the link to see it:

Well, I have some serious house cleaning to do so I best run. Take care everyone!

What's up, Kid (besides the stuff that I just read, of course!!! :)) Sounds like the 'ol birthday month was pretty low key. Glad that you had some time off as it sounds like you're probably working a bit too hard these days!
I'm leaving for Jazz Fest in New Orleans in the morning with a coupl'a buddies. One last ditch effort to act like a 'single person' before I'm tied by the constraints of the wedded masses. Hoping for a good time. I'ma try n' find you something while i'm there, but no promises.
I'm no genius by any means, but I've gotta ask about the 3D thing. I took the title the ear and those familiar treats and have to associate that with someone. I've got a name and face in mind, but can't really be certain about the applicability. Guess that's one of the good things about art - that you're able to make your own assesments of the 'vision' or 'meaning'. Anyway, it's a really cool piece.
Ya'll behave and enjoy your free time before school starts back up!
ok... so now I am curious. I too associate the candy and drawer (maybe pocket) with probably the greatest man I know. However, I don't get the rock and it's meaning, if any.
