Briefly:

Failed Works in Progress again, but due to a technicality and much arguing, there's a 4th and final chance. But I may not take it. The road is forked. I either try one final time, face the giant beast that's been a burden for over a year now, or go the other way, the BA route, and face several smaller beasts.

Either way, turns out I'm NOT graduating next semester. Fuuuuuuuhhhhh-

Next:

Studio photography. Been doing light-painting and multi-flash crap these past couple weeks, with a handful of friends. Here's a small sample, the first one being my best friend David wearing a gas mask, the next one being me jump-roping with Christmas lights:

Other projects move at a glacial pace. Works in Progress and other added stresses last week caused a complete nosedive in productivity.

Instead, I have been indulging in horror movies, Silent Hill 2, and comics, specifically Matt Fraction's Invincible Iron Man and Jonathan Hickman's SHIELD. Hickman is a writer a friend recommended to me, and I had seen his comic the Nightly News, which he wrote and illustrated himself, but SHIELD, which he's doing for Marvel, is incredible. Isaac Newton, Nostradamus, and Leonardo Da Vinci are all in it, Galactus attacks Rome in the renaissance days, and all this other crazy, weird stuff that's awesome. I love it.

This is my current wallpaper on my laptop:

Suda51, my favorite game developer, creator of No More Heroes, my favorite Wii games, in a David Bowie shirt. Don't ask.

Been doing a lot on Tumblr too, which you can get to by clicking, uh, "TUMBLR" over on the sidebar to the right. Go ahead, do it.

Not much more to say really. Back to the grind now that my batteries are recharged...
