California Roughs

ART
Its been a bit rough lately with arguing over who is correct about the arts. My brother is angry that I am not fast at art and that i like everything to be perfect and scale. The practice which I think hes trying to teach me is to make a good picture that is somewhat to scale, but more to capture the moment. This could be the totally wrong thing hes teaching me...but thats what i got after speaking to his roommate Brian and his making it friend Joe. We spent time to sit down and look at the previous artworks which was Joes idea to ask me to make a pile of things I thought were good and a pile of things I thought were bad now that I learned some new techniques. I believe Joe had done this to see if my vision first of all was the same as I got here... and to see which pictures that may possibly had suppose to had been in the crap pile that I still thought were good... the reasons backing up those pictures would tell them the answer of where I was going wrong with the art. I personally thought this was an ingenious idea... instead of my brothers tactic of yelling louder and taking away my most valued music from me T_T...

SURVIVAL
As far as the survival goes I just got a package from my mama and it contained some Yakisoba Sauce and Yakisoba as well as Instant Yakisoba. Sometimes I wish I had taken some cooking classes when i was at home, because it seems i like cooking almost as much as art. Its now up there on my top lists of fun things to do... Composing, Drawing, and Cooking are now my new top 3. However I still havent had the chance to go and wash my clothes : / it seems that its so cold here i almost fear taking a bath rather then an option at home...

While being here for only a month I still have enough can goods to last me at least a little while... but I learned if I keep anything of my own in the fridge... it vanishes very quickly. So, i have been trying to figure out a way i can cook foods that will feed me for multiple of days.

The next problem is to experiment and figure out if the recipes are going to work, expecially with me cooking them : /. I have little time and no printer to figure out what i need to buy at the local super market, and little time to actually experiment... leading to many days of fast food...

<3>The sad part when i think about it is that friend wise I hardly if at any left anyone at home who actually cared about me... I can really maybe say less then three, and its hard because My fear of phones and all... But, I do miss having to do nothing because my mom and having my grandma who doesnt stop talking :/ I did think there was this one girl in california was pretty cute named Miya however that is out of the question for persuite because to my luck she was in an up and coming rock band named "paper thin walls". So, i just hashed the idea of going for some famous girl, but she was really sweet kind and polite, and nerdy to boot ^^U all the things i look for. Well, hopefully i can get out of this house and make some friends... its surely depressing to not see anyone during the weekend, or have anything in common with anyone. Its almost as if its just me having a relationship with the walls and windows of the house.
