216/365 - feel

This is pretty much how I've felt all the time lately. I really should read Catcher In The Rye...it's one I haven't gotten around to yet.

So this is yet another last-minute picture because I had to go to work and then I had to hack away at the paper that is EATING MY SOUL and is also due on Tuesday. And then I had to eat dinner. And I also have to sleep sometime in the near future. WHY DO I ONLY GET 24 HOURS IT IS NOT ENOUGH.

These are my problems.

215/365 - anything ridiculous

That's what this project has come to. Onions strung up over a bathtub in my grandmother's house. NOTHING HAS MEANING ANYMORE OMFG. This project is so, so hard...one of the most difficult things I have ever done, ever, but I won't quit. No, sir, I won't. I SHALL NOT BE DEFEATED. This is a lot of caps and a lot of feels, even for me. \later.

214/365 - howl

This sucks. But it's better than the NOTHING that I produced yesterday due to the fact that I had to work all damn day. Ugh. Back to school tomorrow. I'm so tired.

213/365 - all the devils

Today was OK. Didn't have to go to class, but I had to go to work. Am now sitting here watching Buffy and watching a storm converge over my house. It is seriously yellow outside right now. (O_O) 

Now I'm going to go hope I don't get my butt blown away in some crazy ass storm and also hope it stops being yellow outside. So...yeah.

212/365 - intrusions of beauty

Suddenly uninspired again. I need to get out of the house and take some pictures this weekend. *plans*

Such is the creative life, I suppose...le sigh. 

211/365 - unraveling

Tired and unmotivated. Wasting the day as such. Giving my homework some serious side-eye while I lounge about in my pajamas and do everything except what I should be doing. 

Dear god what has happened to my life anymore, lol. :p

210/365 - lost & found

Eh...not really feeling this one, but no time for anything else. Not sure what else to say...my brain is kind of fried right now, lol.

209/365 - perfect graveyard

I. Am. So. Tired.

Also, I've spent more time on homework than on personal hygiene in the last week. These are my problems.

208/365 - like a carnival

Experimenting with layer blending modes......I needed some bright colors after a remarkably crappy day. So...there's that.

207/365 - the kingdom

So proud of this one, because it turned out exactly like I pictured it in my head.

File under: Things That Happen When I Get Bored And Am Home Alone. Seriously. I get left for a few hours and I start making crowns out of old construction paper. What the hell is wrong with me...

I've been very inspired by Jesca Hoop's music lately...almost all of her songs feel like miniature time traveling adventures back to mediaeval or faraway times. I just get lost in them so easily and they've inspired all kinds of concepts that I need to shoot like, uh, now. Her song "The Kingdom" was the inspiration for this photo.

206/365 - terrified of my heart

Taken in between thunderstorms...I love a good summer storm. Mostly because they smell so good when they're over.

Today was tiring...work and school and stress oh my! Thankfully I have tomorrow off-- no work, no school. I'm not sure what to do with myself. (O_O)

205/365 - serpent heart & flowering face

Feeling very inspired lately. No clue why, but I'm reveling in it while it lasts. :)

This post brought to you by: boredom, random/ nasty feathers found in my driveway & avoidance of homework. xxr

204/365 - nightmares are dreams too

Partially / fractionally / marginally somewhat inspired by my love of this song: CLICKY. This is also inspired by the fact that it is too hot to do anything that isn't in the air conditioning or the water. So I chose air conditioning today. Actually today kind of sucked. But, you know, whatever.

203/365 - born to

No time for anything but the necessities today. Super busy with school & life & such. Must sleep now. zzzzzzz

202/365 - golden eyed

I have to write this stupid paper for school (click to reveal my feelings about school) and it's putting me in a foul mood. Thankfully I think I'm almost done. Just need to double check that I've spouted enough crap about the topic and that said crap is in the correct order so that it makes half a lick of sense. And then I have to print that stupid thing and hope to god I never have to think about it again.

Excuse me while I go drown my petty sorrows in sweet tea and cheese balls.

201/365 - weather

Went out to dinner with J today at Panera...twas lovely. Am now sitting here watching a movie and sitting about. Looking forward to a lazy Sunday tomorrow.......yayyyyy. :)

200/365 - fragments and chaos

Ahhh day 200! What the hell! omg!  etcetc

Sooo I hated all the pictures I took today and ended up using one from the other day when there was actually awesome light. I think today was too cloudy and icky for pictures anyway.

In other news, my motivation has simply gone to hell. Going to go walk on the treadmill and hope that helps get some of it back. Because man...all I want to do right now is stretch out on the couch and watch Buffy The Vampire Slayer and eat copious amounts of cupcakes and diet coke. But there are papers to write, jobs to go to, and books to read. Gotta get this butt in gear. ahhhh

199/365 - evil things betide

Creepy ass spider web + a line from Grimm's fairytales = what the nether regions of my brain looks like.

Getting up at 6 a.m. everyday is making me crazy tired. Someone should tell Future Rachel never to have a job for which she has to wake up before 8 a.m. Ha-ha-ha. I'm too tired to find even my own lame jokes funny. This is not okay. :p

198/365 - only love

Considering I only had 5 minutes to shoot this, I'd call it a success....

School & work & life stuff are eating my life alive. Free time? What's that? Never heard of it, actually.

Can't stop listening to this song now. CLICKITY. Although I think it deserved a better music video than the singer tooling around on his bike, but ALAS. Such is life.

197/365 - notes and photographs

This actually turned out way better than I thought it would, since I only had about ten minutes to put it together. I'm not sticking around long tonight...still have some more reading to do out of the Pretentious-Ass Textbook. Oh, joy. I mean, I know it could be worse, but seriously. Just try reading this book and tell me it isn't pretentious-ass. TRY. I DARE YOU.  

196/365 - lost

Ahh work ate my time alive this weekend! :( Will try to be on my GAME this week with ze photos. Heeeeeee.

195/365 - burn on sunsets

I've been awake for 16 hours. What fresh hell...

Sleep? Who needs sleep? SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK. And the humans. Which includes me. For some reason I am continually surprised that I have to sleep. That would be the only cool thing about being a vampire, not having to sleep ever. Wait..what the hell am I talking about? I'm leaving now before this gets any weirder.

194/365 - a horizontal fall

File under: Things to Do While Avoiding Your Homework. Have I mentioned how much I hate school lately? Well, I hate school. So there. 

Kind of a waste of a day. Should probably go finish my homework now. Son of a wombat.

193/365 - liberty dwells

Lame, but happy Independence Day! I had no other ideas anyway so.... :p Holy mother of god I am so freakin' tired again. ACK.

192/365 - an unquiet eddy

It's hotter than hell outside today. Also, I totally found a tick crawling on me after taking this photo. How I SUFFER for my art. I still feel like things are crawling on me long after flushing Mr. Tick. (O_O)

Anywho. Today was the first day of my second summer class...I am fairly certain that this one will be ridiculously easy. So YAY on that. The only downside is that I have to be there from 8-9:30. Which means I have to get up before sunrise. Which is hellish and unnatural. 

Now, if you'll excuse me, I am going to go check myself for ticks.

ETA -- 7/4/12:  After thinking about this last night while I was falling asleep, I determined that I should rotate it and see what happened. BEHOLD. I like the rotated version much, much better. Now I can sleep again.

191/365 - believe in magic

Happy birthday to me. :p Had a lovely and lazy day...now about to go read and go to bed early so I can get up early for SCHOOL tomorrow. Deargodhelpmewhy.

190/365 - magpie to the morning

That blob in the lower left corner is a bird, just FYI. I just realized it's kind of hard to tell what it is exactly....anyway. I was very, very tired today after the insanity that was yesterday. I think I'm finally going to bed now. WOO.
