Auf Wedersehen, good bye...</Sound of Music Ref>
I'm leaving for a skiing trip tomorrow...Road trip. Joy.
That should explain my leave/absence for the next few days, in case any of you care.
In all honesty, I'd really prefer to stay home and catch up on sleep as I've been sleep-deprived for days even though winter break started last Friday. But my mom, being...well...Mom, insisted that we all go on a vacation. My grandparents are coming along too (as long as they don't molest my arm like they tend to do every blinking time they see me, I'll be fine).
Anyway, I had a picture I intended finish up coloring to post up for the holidays...I think it's obvious how that plan came out. ><;;;
I'll try to finish it up once I get back, but I can't promise anything because as we all know, I suck at deadlines. Plus, my schedule's getting really crazy now due to upcoming events and less time to actually do things such as my homework, all of which I have slacked off on to no end.
It's shameful, really. I lack all sense of time-management, self-discipline, study skills, and common sense. (Oh, shoot, here comes another one of Liffy's study habit/school rants! Feel free to skip to the end or click the 'X' at the top right corner of your browser.)
My grades are in fact, slipping down the drain at an alarming rate. Recently I've been buckling down and doing my best to bring them up, but of course, since I lack all ability whatsoever to test well, it's really no use. I can know the material, and I can understand it. And everytime someone gives me a test, I screw it ten times over. It's horrible, especially when my grades are on the borderline to sudden death (well, not really. But it might as well be.).
I'd blame the fact that I got depressed midway through the first quarter and lost all sense of hope and determination to try harder, but there's really no point in doing so. Telling my parents and/or my teachers of my hormonal imbalance/pathetic-ness isn't going to change my grade or anything else, so saying that my apathy and depression is the cause of my horrendous grades is ridiculous and a waste of time. Hell, I'm pretty sure my history teacher would just shrug and tell me to go back to my seat...such love and support, I know.
Whatever. My history final requires me to know world geography (yes, every single country in the world. In Europe, North and South America, Africa, and Asia...)...so that's...not very fun.
My science grade is pummeling down to hell...that is, if it isn't already in hell.
It doesn't help that even though I read the textbook and ask my teacher questions, I still don't understand the material.
Wait, that just contradicted a statement a few paragraphs back. Let's back up a bit.
In science, I can understand things at the beginning of the unit. However, it seems like I suffer from some sort of amnesia that is DIRECTLY AIMED at the subject of chemistry. So every unit I understand everything...then, either halfway into the unit or a week before the test I forget every freaking thing I learned. I feel like the nucleus of an atom. Because everytime my teacher says something, it acts like an alpha particle. So basically, everything he says misses me, and if it does hit me, it bounces right off! (what a freakish, yet rather accurate, analogy!)
...so those of you who think you're doing horribly in school, don't worry. I'm doing worse. That should make you all feel MUCH better. But don't get me wrong, I'm not proud of the fact I'm not doing well in school.
-------------
As for all the sketchs I promised, I'll get to them. Unfortunately, I won't be able to work on most of them because I'll need references and I can't bring any with me >>;;.
And I'll put an art dump soon, once I get all my crap done. I'll make it big. Think of it as a 'going-to-be-really-late-Christmas present'.
...both will most likely take a while, even if they are sketches...because I've got a huge project that I need to finish by the end of the break.
Anyway, see you all in three days...or so.

I've witnessed complete silence many times, and it's not silent at all. It's a ringing in your ears that keeps telling you that you're alone.
