Compliments and Trail Mix

I got a compliment in an email recently from my most notorious instructor. It took me by surprise, as positive feedback from this person is rare. In fact, I was told to be proud. This actually scared me, I guess for several reasons - I'm being noticed, and I have expectations now. I've always been taught pride is bad, and humility is good, so I'm also hesitant to take this to heart. You know, the higher you are, the farther you will fall when you suck the next time, and that will hurt even more. And everyone will hate you. I just hope I don't fall flat next time and have any past success be credited mainly to luck. There are enough egos at school, they don't need another...as a classmate has said, sometimes the school isn't big enough to house them all.
But I am enjoying myself more now, I don't know if it's because the burden of concepting is over and it's time to construct, so I'm just used to little sleep and finding time constraints don't always hinder my creativity. I also am starting to like trail mixes, like the kind with nuts and seeds. I've always hated that crap, but now I feel like a hamster. Well, that's my random note for the day.

6:30 am on a Sunday?

It's Friday at last, though Wednesday nights often feel more relaxing for some weird reason. I still have to get up for a meeting tomorrow, and as I went to bed at 5:30 am and woke up at 9:00, and was in class all day, I'll be taking it easy tonight. I actually did have plans, but fortunately I have very understanding friends. I promise I'll make it up during those two glorious weeks in March!

So it's been busy, chaos. Sometimes I feel good about a class, and others (most) I'm just barely hanging by...I need to have 3 bags/boxes designed for Tuesday, and 3 3d comps of each (9 total, and don't forget those boxes have to have a re-use, relate to my civ, incorporate my animal, unique handles with an AOF, involve a color harmony that uses color of my civ, and somehow makes my interviewed child's life better pertaining to their problem). And after that class I gotta meet for my production class and pull something together for Mr. Allen Jackson and Co. I am enjoying the 50 card set project though.
We've had a last minute 6:30 am Sunday meeting on "time management" from Mr. President of PC himself, but it seems things just take me longer than one can ever imagine..and that longer just needs a day with more than 24 hours. I haven't been playing a very good wife, but we did go out last weekend which was much needed.

As for other things, I really like these little boxes of Silk Chocolate milk. Rubber cement erasers are miraculous inventions. My in-laws will be coming in April for 10 days, then going to Florida for 10 days. Pig is happy at work, and I enjoy the distraction my job offers. Ok, until next time...
