So here's the deal.

DUE TO A REALLY HORRIBLE HASTY LAST MINUTE DECISION, I'm here at home..with Mur. I was awaiting some news from my Illustration teacher on Thursday, to see how I was gonna turn out in the class because something happened and I had to do some make up work. I WAS REALLY NERVOUS SO I WENT TO BED. Okay.
And
well, when I woke up, there was an email in my mailbox. I was like, holy shit MUR PLEASE READ MY EMAIL I AM
AFRAID.
So she read it because I'm a little pussy and apparently it turned out to be GOOD NEWS!! and everything was alright. So, from my sheer happiness, I just kinda stood up all like OKAY
LETS GO
LETS GO HOME, WE HAVE TO MAKE IT BACK BEFORE ELLIOT'S. AFTER I'M DONE WITH MY STORYTELLING STUFF, LETS GET THE FUCK OUT. So we did, on an impulse, drove for 9 hours to Birmingham from Sarasota on like..idk, 4-6 hours of sleep.
BAD
IDEA. But it wasn't too bad..not as bad as how it will be when we leave for New York tomorrow.
The reason why we were so hasty was because we had planned to go home before Elliot's?? To pick up some stuff from home and to get our hair..re-done and such. 0: However, we lost track of time from all the moving we did and when we realized we only had less than 2 weeks, we kind of panicked. U: That and in that huge frenzy of panicking, I forgot to pack all of my art shit. SO MY MARKERS AND MY SCANNER are back in Florida...also my laminator. I went out and bought more watercolor and some gouache though..
So because I lack such things, along with Paint Tool Sai because Macs suck, I'm going to be slow with starting on commissions until I get back from being out of town. 0: I think as far as I can go is sketch commissions like I mentioned before, and maybe if I can get used to drawing on this stupid laptop again, I can begin on my digital commissions, which kind of throws me out of order, but at least it will be getting something done.
The problem with icons though is the fact that I don't have the original wip files with me. :[ The huge 2000x2000 files that is, they're back in Florida on my pc. I'll try to get started on the ones I haven't started on though, but they won't look the same as the ones that are done in Sai. 0: They're gonna look kinda..different since it's going to be completely done in photoshop. I'll try to figure something out though..because my goal is to have all of these or at least more than half of my commissions done before AC. q_q; So I'm trying to get myself into commission machine mode. I usually do this by just..trying to get back in the habit of drawing every day, which I'm doing right now.
But yeah, I guess the good news overall is that I'm just..finally free to work on owed stuff now and to just do more art in general now that classes are over. :D So if you're waiting on something, it won't be too long from now before you get it.

Yeah it was really horrible, all the rushing and what not xD We still have a lot to do to get ourselves situated in our apartment, but being back at home has helped me calm down. Especially being able to see my cats, they make me so happy every time I get to come back to them. (8
What kind of dogs did you have? I think i remember you had a golden retriever once.
And I dunno what happened to your friend's laptop, but I've had parallels on my macbook for about as long as I've had it, for the odd's and end programs that need it, and I've never had any problems arise from it.
If you need help installing it though, feel free to ask. I just did it last week since I've formatted my computer, and it's fresh in my brain. Haha.
Also yes, I do have a wacom tablet, so I think getting the drivers would be easy. xD
