today was okay. art for that long every day, however, can be really...exhausting. I've been feeling like i'm about to fall asleep since about 2:30. bleh. also I have to set up a sort of studio here...which I have absolutely no idea how i'm going to do considering that my grandmother's house looks like a bomb went off inside it. and I mean literally. like...a big bomb. my teacher said he wants me to practice painting here in my free time. it's obvious he's never seen the inside of her house. so yeah i'm thinking of maybe converting her plant room into a temporary studio since the walls are mostly windows and it has tile flooring so I won't thrash the carpet. i'll just have to move things around a bit, but luckily i'm pretty good at that since I did the same thing with my room at home when I needed more space for art. I need to get an easel...hmm...
ugh and I just tried to escape to go for a run because I like running at around twilight until it gets dark...I hate running during the day. unless it's really early in the morning. but anyway I was almost out the door and I was telling my grandmother that I would be back soon and she was like OH well wait for ME I want to go, too. which meant that I would be walking, not running. so I waited like 10 mins for her to changeand she decided to bring her stupidass dog with her. she has this tiny, neurotic, irritating-as-hell white dog that she takes everywhere with her and apparently this was going to be no different. so we started walking only we got about 15 feet from the end of the walkway when her dog stopped and refused to move. so we stood there until the damn thing moved and then after ANOTHER 15 feet she stopped again. at this point I felt like screaming because all I wanted was to go out and relax without that idiot dog, but yeah...that was impossible. we just got back. I managed to kick it twice though while my grandmother was tying her shoe. anyway. tomorrow when I go run i'll just...run out the door before she can do it again lol.
i'm tired. and I have school again tomorrow. craziness. this still feels weird being here.
