OHMYJULIUSLAROSAI'MGOINGTOEATSOMETHING!!!!

Today, or rather, this morning, I woke up late .{courtesy of UEA, WOOT.}As a bit of a celebratory action in order to cheer myself up a bit before taking a shower, I got on facebook. Dreaded, dreaded facebook.

As I entered this cyber-world full of facades and 'friendships', I saw that I had a notification from my awesome pals over at Annex skate. I've done some artwork for Annex and the owner's mother loves me. {?} We've kept in touch and they've been working very hard to get me legitimized in the Utah art scene. Upon reading this notification, Ezra {of Annex} told me there were these people {click on it now. It's a link that will explain things to come.} who were really interested in my artwork, and wanted to put some of my stuff on their website.

Of course I said yes! These people have direct ties to SLUG magazine! And since I have no website as of yet, the SLUG people have not been able to contact me! For shame, I say!

All of this has been happening so quickly. First Vestige {fail}, then Annex, then realsk8, and possibly SLUG in the near future. I can't believe what all of this has come to, and I am really grateful and excited to see where it will head.

{Also, did I mention that the head of the BYU art department wants to see my work and chat about future possibilities? Yeah. Freaking out. Just a little.}

I am lucky to know and have people in my life that honestly care about me and believe in my work. This is what I want to do with my future, and no one can crush my passion.

(Also, sideways charcoal for funsies.)
