Immense Boredom

Posted by Gemini

I'm bored. Like... you don't even know how bored I am. Particularly because I have no reason to be bored! If anything I feel like my summer projects are piling up around me and I have NO motivation to do them!

One particular project I'm half way between panicing on myself and completely abandoning it! Only thing is abandoning it would mean a lot of awful let down friends because of all the planning and going ons I've done so far with this one. I originally had the idea that we might be able to get it finished by October, but now I'm thinking not. I might end up telling my whole "Pre-lim" group, as I call them, that I'm officially not working on any of the larger more complex sections that need to get done until a month or so. Simply because I feel what's happened is that, I've had to work on it and work on it, and it's been the main thing, (other than digital art) that I've been focused on, and so it's kind of... found it's place of boring me. So I need to back off of it some. Perhaps even after backing off, even for a little while, we may still be able to make it by October. Octobers still a month and half off. We shall see.

Now this wouldn't be so bad as I have drawing and writing to preoccupy me, but these things have begun to bore me as well! Drawing particularly has hit a low for me. Especially drawing in my usual style. To the point that I think I've been getting better at drawing lately simply because my old "always draw like this" habits became boring to me so I felt like changing it up, and it made it better. Just today I started sketching a semi-realistic sketch that came out fantastic. I can't wait to finish it all the way out, it's going to look cool with the way I've got it in my head!

Which of course this makes me sound like I'm not bored! But I still am! Because that picture won't last me long. I can almost guarantee it won't get finished. and then what?
Oh but of course I've mad myself another project! These sculpey cubes with emoticon faces that I've taken to calling cubicles! I've got nine of them sitting on my computer now. A couple of them have little legs that I gave them, but they actually aren't the cuter ones. and guess what! I've decided to sell them! Another thing to spend my days doing!

But of course I need my parents help. and what do they do after they give me the idea to sell them? Refuse to get me started. Give me reasons selling them won't work out. But now I've got my mind set on that, so I'll probably keep pestering them. Specially after my dad baited me saying it could end up selling so well that it provided for my gas money.

They are awful adorable. Perhaps I'll give them their own blog post once I get the first test auction up. I'll link to it, definitely.
