My instincts and my brain are telling me two completely different things. What I want and what I need are complete opposites. I don't know what to do.

I'm only hoping that time will help me figure it out.

time

I'm feeling the need to journal, but I can't seem to find my my old one. This will do since nobody really reads it anyway.

I just never thought I could miss someone so much. I know that time apart is the right thing, but I never imagined the right thing could feel so horrible.

Who knows, maybe time will show us that it wasn't right in the first place. But it could also show us that being apart is more wrong than one could imagine. I have no idea what to think, but I intend to stand strong for now. We both need time to learn and grow from our mistakes and to sort out our thoughts in order to act rationally instead of rashly.

This is starting to sound like an essay, but writing helps. I feel lost and broken, but I believe that time will help me.

Speedy Grocery Shopping

Here's a video I made yesterday for no real reason. It amused me. Normally the sound doesn't just cut off so who knows what happened here.

Insomnia Part...a lot

I haven't posted in some time, but I'm back and filled with joy. Not really....It's just 4:48 a.m. and I'm wide awake. A little over an hour ago I was fast asleep, but I'm not quite sure what happened. I am contemplating putting on my running shoes and going over to our little 24 hour gym to go for a run and tire myself out, but I feel like it might just get me more pumped up. Ahh this is crazy. Normally my insomnia prevents me from falling asleep, but this morning it just woke me up and kept me up. How rude.

The amount of slush on

The amount of slush on the stairs of ballantine decreases exponentially as you go up 3 floors... Pretty gross

Rod-governor douche

This is what I pictured as I was driving on 355 last night...it is a terrible photoshop job, but it really just makes me laugh.

I surpassed 3000 views on RedBubble today! It seems not too long ago that I had reached 2500, hopefully the increased views are a good sign. Watch out art world, Danielle Kay is movin' on up.

Song of the day: on

Song of the day: on and on- slightly stoopid

I feel very inspired this

I feel very inspired this morning. I have the desire to create something. But alas, i have to sit through class for 3 more hours

thank you note

Dear Spike TV,

       Thank you with all of my heart for playing marathons of Unsolved Mysteries at the exact time I get home from class each day. Every weekday I come home from class exhausted, and slightly irritated, but when I see Unsolved Mysteries on the TV guide, my heart leaps for joy. So I say thank you, Spike TV, for keeping me sane and happy during my rigorous days of classes.

Love,

Danielle Kay

Week 1: very eventful

Good thing one of my new year's resolutions wasn't to post here more often....I've failed at that for the past 17 days. I guess I've felt like there hasn't been much to rant about. 

I guess I could say that it has been an interesting first week back at school. Within the first four days that I was back in Bloomington I realized that I'm in the wrong major, and promptly switched to a Studio Art major. I will either specialize in Photography or Graphic Design...I'm not quite sure which yet. I am positive, though, that a major in Studio Art will get me into a career that I love, where a Psychology major would not. I'm keeping Psych as a minor though, and Spanish as my second major. 

And now I'm off to shoot my photography project and do some sketches for graphic design! Thank goodness we had no classes today...the extra day was helpful. Not that I was productive, but it was a nice relaxing weekend.

the beginning

The new year has begun, and it is time to start following resolutions. I have yet to write mine anywhere, they are just floating around in my head, which could be dangerous. So here they are:

-work out/run at least 3 times a week

-eat healthier (minimal junk food, no pop, more fruit)

-Photograph more often (Photo a Day)

-be more open to new experiences; take advantage of good opportunities (don't be so lazy)

-work with more art mediums (painting, drawing, 3d)

-write (no specifics...just write)
