The final stretch.

March 4th, 2009

I’ve finished the work on time. The frames are ready, the DVD’s have been burned, and the final price for the installation and removal of the work has been set. All I need to do now is finalize with the carpenters when they’ll be able to install the work. They wanted to start tomorrow, but I don’t think that will be possible. The gallery already told us we only had the last week before the show to install our work. I am meeting up with them tomorrow, though, so it will all be worked out.

My goodness, I can’t believe it’s almost here. So much planning and working and rethinking and working and… *sigh* I can’t wait for the 14th now. Even more than that, I can’t wait for the trip to New York! I’m so glad I bought the Rebel because now I can take a lot of awesome photos.

It’s interesting. A few weeks ago, I finally bit the bullet and told my mother that Audi and I weren’t together anymore, months after we’d broken up. She asked me how I was feeling and I said I was fine. I told her I was just too busy to cry about it. Tonight, as I was driving home from the computer lab at school, I was listening to “Missing” by Everything But the Girl in the car… and I started crying a little. I was thinking of Audi, and I realized… I’m not too busy to cry about it now.

Meh. I’ll leave it at that. Ciao.

Down to the wire…

Man, the BFA show is almost here. And there’s still things to do. CHRIST, why do we have to have other classes? Why can’t we just prepare for the show and that’s it? :rofl: UGH. I need to get the three frames, and the plywood to make the false wall. Once I have that, I’m set. Hopefully, the exhibitions manager at CIFO will contact me today so that I can pass by the gallery and take the necessary measurements.

Thankfully, the installation can be done before March 14th, but I’m aiming on having everything done by the 6th, and then any necessary adjustments can be done by the 14th. My biggest concern is making the false wall, but hopefully my wood shop skills will kick in for that.  heh.

Oh man, it’s exciting, but it’s also nerve-wracking. I’ve been so mentally busy, I haven’t had time to cry about my situation with Audi. Oh, and speaking of that… I finally told my mother that we’d broken up in October 2008. I figured, if Audi has already started moving on and begun dating someone else, there’s no point in pretending that we haven’t REALLY broken up. My mom had no reaction either way, and told me that if it’s meant to be, yadda yadda. It was a weight lifted off my shoulders, that’s for sure.

As for Audi, I’ve cut all communication with him, but not by choice. If it were up to me, he’d be right back in my arms again. But I don’t want to tie him down. He’s a grown man, and he can make his own decisions about what or who he wants. As much as I love him, I need to let him go and pray he comes back to me someday. :shrug:

Anyway, here’s my much needed update on my life. Back to work! Ciao.

Stuck in School

February 12th, 2009

Well, not really. I could leave whenever I want to, but I have 13×19 prints due for tomorrow and I’d rather get at least two of them done. That way, I have less work to do tomorrow. I’m hoping to have all three videos completely done by this weekend. I’m also planning to go to the CIFO gallery space on Sunday to get the necessary info on the screens I’m using. I need to measure how big they are and how I want the frames to look. I may end up having to make a false wall to hide the screens a bit. *sigh* SO MUCH WORK TO DO!

My mother wants me to go up to West Palm Beach with her this Saturday to visit my godchildren. I’m debating whether or not I should go, just because I’d rather work on my school stuff. I may need the whole day Saturday to work on my film for Film/Video class. Blah.

Oh, and I still haven’t talked to Audi… I miss him like crazy. :(

I’m gonna get back to work now. Ciao.
