What to do?

What do you do when you have so much extra time? I don't remember the last time I had so much time and absolutely nothing to do! I used to wish I could take this time and store it up in a little box, so the next time I had a test, exam, or an unfair amount of homework, instead of cutting into my sleep time I could just open up my little box of stored time and still get sleep! It would be so perfect. But, I no longer have to worry about this.

My only worry is money. And should I be worrying about money at this very special free time in my life? I don't know. What do you think? I've dropped off over 10 resumes, but no one's called. I want to go back in and shake them, saying "Don't you know?! I'm not a stupid teenager like the people you have working here!! I do my work. And I do it well!" But then at the same time can you blame them? Maybe they can see the secret behind my eyes that I will be leaving in 2 months. And they can tell that there is no point in hiring me, because I would barely have time to train for the job.

So until this sorts itself out I will do the only other thing I know to do. Let the painting begin! And the sketching, I've been trying to get back into sketching for a while. What better time than now? So, here I go. One painting down, many more to come. Maybe I'll post some pictures of them as I finish, but don't hold me accountable to that!

Wish me luck!

I wish for those days of free time. I think you are taking the right approach and enjoying your paints and pencils.

I would much rather you be painting and drawing and perhaps meeting some other artists than you working at a boring job. Keep busy painting and learning new tech. and enjoy your freedom time!!
