Howdy yall!

I'm sure you've all been wondering, WTF Nina go?
Well I assure you...I've been really busy.

For starters, Im still heavily into school. Im proud to be independant know (read: parents dont sign for loans anymore)
and am now on an academic scholarship!! (but this is because the hard classes havent started yet! lololol)

I have started using the Unreal T3 Editor which is amazing as hell. I absolutely love world building and the programing aspect of it all. I do believe this is as fun, if not more fun than character creation. But they all go hand in hand.

I need to make 10 meshes by Jan 11.

However, I will be missing 2/3 classes because i am goin up to North Carolina the 13-17 and going snow boarding!!! How awesome is THAT!!

I HAD THE BEST Christmas EVER this year. I spent time with my family, then went to my boyfriend's house and celebrated with HIS family. I made out like a bandit!! I didnt expect anything from his family and they blew me away!

I have been so happy this year. I was out of school for a while but im glad to be back. My relationship has been the most rewarding experience and every day with him is a blessing!

he bought me a laptop for christmas to support/expand my gaming capabilities.
(this is to ensure his ability to be a stay-at-home-dad...isnt he hysterical? )

but i have been plenty blessed this year. my heart has been healed and although I have tried to fix some severed relationships, not all prevailed. However, i can sleep at night knowing I went out with an honest heart and if things are the way they are, then maybe that relationship was never worth salvaging in the first place. it is what it is. ke sera sera.

i have recently thought about turning my novel into a GRAPHIC novel. However time and energy seems to go towards school work and boyfriend hehe. I hope to at least start on it this week.

I also hope to frequent dA more often this new year (resolution!)
I have many things planned out for this new year project-wise. We shall see what happens.

Anyhoo, I hope all you who still stick around to see my updates have a blessed belated Christmakwanzahkah and a Happy New Year. Love Yall!

Hello to all those out there who have missed my presence (or not).
I have been busy partying and vacationing this summer. after doing well
In June with classes I gave myself a break. I start school again on OCT 5.

I am excited to go back but one of my favorite teachers will not be returning!
I hope things don't go downhill...

I've just turned 24!! can u believe it?!!!??! Me neither.
But this year has been a very awesome year!
I am blessed to have a great job, awesome career path and a hot boyfriend!
Lolol. My bf has been very supportive and we just celebrated our
7.0 today! He bought me dinner! I hope to take him out this weekend.

In other news I still haven't finished two swords! I'm behind!

I am finally bringing my lifelong dream of going to Ireland to fruitation.
I have it all in a nice neat green folder! lol.

Hopefully once I start school again I will be a presence back on this site...

Thanks to all who support me and to those who stop by and drop comments!

Gawd its been ages since I last updated mai journal huh? hehe. busy busy!
only 3 moar weeks of skool left (and if you cant tell, my brain has exploded). will be taking summer off. I NEED A BREAK!! ;_;
Been tryin to balance out my schedual. havent been drawing 2d as much as i like anymore
but i do every once in a while and it helps me feel better.

i feel the 3d art has helped me with my 2d skillzors. as of right now, im doing uv wrapping/unwrapping of my love's office walls. and a 3d character design of Drizzt Do'Urden (R.A.Salvatore/Forgotten Realms) I have been working tediously and put long hours every night into my work so that I can have it finished within the next week or so. leaving the last two weeks to just touch up.

work finally has cut me some slack (maybe a bit too much!) and im only workin 3 days this week. my hours are still the same, but the extra days off are nice!! if only this rain would go away, id go out riding! ill get to do that tomorrow, hopefully my dad and i are off to Honda to get some oil fer my bike. i get to lern how to change oil fer my new baby finally! XD; put 3k miles on it so far!

in other news my other OTHER love has left me for another country. *gasp* so to hell with him this upcoming weekend when he gets to visit my beloved Ireland!! D<
no, really, i miss him terribly and life is pretty lame without him.
but luckily i has muh girlfriends to keep me company XD

I AM SO ANGRY! (wai?!) because i bought Oblivion Elder Scrolls fer my computer........AND IT DOESNT WORK!!!! im short liek 8 bits ram in order to play it!!! my soul died. yes it hurt.
so diablo 2 fer the time being until i can afford an upgrade. ><

Still saving up monies to go to Orlando in August. Can't wait!! Gonna be at the Hard Rock Hotel!!!! So we can party all night and walk back to bed hehe XD; then roller coasters the whole rest of the weekend!!! XDD. I DEFINATELY wanna sit at the pool thooo!!!! have you seen it?! OH EM GEE.
Still, We will be shy just a MONTH! of the opening of the Harry Potter theme they have been building! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRG! u win some, u lose everything else D<

hehe. but still, there will be tons enough for us to do. my bank account will be throbbing for the next three weeks but its worth it. i love mai hunny and this will be the best dual birthday extravaganza EVER!!! (he's 12th; im 24th of august)

but anyhoo. expect more from me...eventually. for now, im gonna go out and enjoy some fresh air. love yall!! <3<3<3

Sorry to all those who may or may not have been concerned on my temp departing of dA.
Fer the last couple of weeks I've actually been out of a computer. (blue screen of death).
Long story short I need to order recovery cds. Until then, I may only be updating school work....at skool. My dA account also seemed to have been hacked into. Although nothing seems to be missing, I could not log in. Finally, dA responded in timely manner and I am slowly getting things back in order.

New classes start this week, texturing/lighting, game design & play, and finally, CHARACTER MODELING!! SQUEEEEEE!

on a lesser note, I have been pining over my cpu's death, but dealing. But even harder, even tho I had spring break, ive had to work all vacation (the pay will be worth it) and have missed out on hanging out with my SO.
He has been busy with his own things. I guess its a good thing because we're both getting what is needed done. But Nina is in much need of teh huggles. Sunday needs to hurry up and get here!!!

So In case I dont see or hear from anybody fer the rest of the week, Happy Early Easter to those it applies to. God Bless and take it easy yall!

Note to self: Major cleaning up of dA account. Getting it ready for 3dstuffs. woot.
