thanksgiving, rachel alexandra breyer, other stuff

Journal Entry: Mon Oct 12, 2009, 10:10 AM
News and Fun Happenings  


So this weekend is thanksgiving for us canadians, so I am at home right now. It's good, except I have a midterm tomorrow at 8:30 am (seriously what professor gives a midterm first thing back from the holidays?) and we aren't getting back to school until really late. It's funny, studying here with all the cats is hilarious. One kitten like, attacking the laptop screen, the other biting my brand new textbook, and another biting my toe. :XD:

I can never concentrate well on drawing here, but I brought a breyer home and am customizing it. It's a lonesome glory mold, and I'm making it into rachel alexandra. I repositioned all 4 legs, the head and neck, and re sculpted the whole mane and tail. I also got some flowers from michaels to make the kentucky oaks blanket for her. She's almost done, and will just need painting when I get home. My mom owns a power sander which has come in quite handy. And I have more space here to make a huge mess.

Lol, it's also fun using a candle and this power sander with the kittens trying to put their face in everything. Or biting the model's face when I'm not looking :XD:

And my mom went crazy and cooked all this food. She made 2 turkeys, all this shepard's pie and other stuff. She wants to have lots of leftovers :XD:

So this weekend has been pretty good. Stuff at school isn't though, I've been going to the doctor at least once a week and I think I finally am getting what I need. There's been lots of crap going on so it's good to get away for a bit :)

oh, and mirage didn't get any bids. Doesn't bother me, I know I've been starting my auctions higher, but him and incantation make a good set so I'm keeping him for now.

I hope everyone else is good. :)

Good luck with your customizing job! I'm excited to see it finished. Although like another commenter said, for a minute I was all excited that Breyer was making an official Rachael Alexandra model. Oh well, what would customizers and repainters do if Breyer made a model of everything? :D

thanks! Hopefully I'll have her done by the end of the week. And yeah that's true I suppose, breyer can't make everything! :)

aww I wish! I would hope they would, they did a rags to riches one. They didn't do curlin though, I'm not sure if the owners have to approve it and maybe they didn't want to, who knows

and everyone was saying how its so much better now, that they take into account dependent children and such, but thats a lie. I know people who have 2 sisters and brothers in school along with them and they still can't get loans. like even if your parents make like 100k a year if you have 3 kids in uni things are still tight. they're loans too, what are they losing by letting people have loans. its stupid. lol I guess its good im poor, didn't have to worry about approval, lol!

yeah, osap is my rent money lol queens paid tuition this year, not sure what will happen next year, my scholarship was only 2 years long. thats good you have money for tuition! all that working huh?

its been alright. I find the psyc stuff so interesting and I'm so relieved to be out of chem and bio. like they're science based psyc so there is still chem stuff but its not as intense. plus I like it so its easier to do the work and such.

what about you? are you taking all artsy stuff? meeting lots of other people and such? is it nice being away from fort erie? =P
