Last night, I turned in the last of my comprehensive exams. This means that I only have two more days of my internship and I need to turn in my papers regarding that, but then I'm done. Completely. I will have no more work to do toward my second Master's of Science.
It's strange not to have homework. I've been doing nothing but work from the minute I got home to the time I went to sleep so long that when I finished, I actually didn't know what to do with myself. Tonight, I think I'll go shopping and finally get that camera that I want so I can post pictures of things.
I know, of course, that now I have to start looking for a job and all that, which will not be pleasant, and will be a lot of work as well, but I don't intend to spend every waking moment on it. Even when I get a real job, I won't have homework, so I'll still have more time for me than I do now. I definitely plan to update this blog more, and to get in shape and enjoy my art.
I've been starving my creativity for a year now, with all this constant work. I did sewing and knitting, and I embroidered my friend's stole, but I also need to paint and draw and make jewelry. Maybe I should get a part-time job at a craft store. I know how to use nearly everything in the store, and I could probably teach a few of their classes. I really want to learn to draw comics better. I used to do that a lot early in high school. I really enjoyed it. I gave it up when my workload became too much and my parents made it clear that they would never pay for my education if I was an art major. I enjoy science, but I can't live without art. Actually, I did a painting of string theory, and I would like to do more "science-y" art. I've started making planet beads for a solar system necklace. Of course, I'm still working on my historical wardrobe project. That's slowed a lot with the work I've had, but it should pick up when my mom gives me her sewing machine.
I have many wonderful ideas. I can't wait to play with them!
