I'm looking forward to the next four years. First time in a long time I've been hopeful about America's future, especially as a global power in a changing world.

Also, I need to upload. BADLY. I've been too busy with school and getting submissions ready for Threadless, and unfortunately, dA has basically taken a back seat to the rest of my life. Maybe over X-mas break.

Just finished deleting some old crap. Hopefully that means I'll be uploading new stuff soon, but no promises. Been super busy with work and Fall semester starts in about a week. Whew.

I'll do my best!

Holy. Crap. Go and see The Dark Knight. Two and a half hours of wow. Although I'm all the more upset that TDK will be Heath Ledger's swan song. He is just incredible, and the respect I had for him before this role has grown exponentially after seeing the movie today. And he is somehow still oddly attractive as the sadistic, twitchy Joker. That's all I got to say abou' that.

In other news, I'm thinking about cleaning house here on my dA account; I feel like I have way too much crap that is... well, crap. Or outdated. Or that I can't stand looking at anymore. I'll have to get to that before school starts back up though, otherwise I won't have time. Thus is life.

NOW GO SEE DARK KNIGHT. THE COMIC BOOK GODS DEMAND YOUR SOUL.

It's been over a year since my mom died. I've changed a lot, but I still miss her just as a much as the day she died. Sometimes I forget I had a mom, which sounds so blasphemous; I'm just getting used to not seeing her anymore, I guess. It sucks.

It's a milestone, and in a way I'm happy. There are certain things that still make me cry, but not as often. Time is doing it's job in helping me heal, but it's still difficult. *sigh*

I love you Mom.

Your DD,
Lelia

I can't believe I have another year, possibly more, of school. FCUK.

I'm so tired of it. I need a personal Renaissance. Hopefully summer will help... it's only a few weeks away for me, thank god.
