thieved from ~DoomHobbit

Go to urban dictionary ([link]) and type in the answers to your question and then pick either the first or favorite definition that urban dictionary comes up with.

1.) Your name? Lacy

yeah, I love it. haha.

2.) Your age? 26
A lot of booze. 750ml of alcohol. Pronounced "two-six" NOT twenty-six
heh. the other definitions include gangs - wtf?

3.) One of your friends? Tracy
1.) The unisex name Tracy \t-ra-cy\ is pronounced TRAY-see. It is of Irish Gaelic origin,one meaning is warlike. Another originating as a nickname for Theresa "late summer"
cute!

2.) A term referring to one who has many contradicting qualities, characteristics or traits usually in an EITHER/OR basis ie; Nice, cruel, Stubborn, Compliant, Sparkly, Dark, Social, isolated, Wishful, hopeless, innocent, sinful, naieve, cunning, proud, ashamed, determined, indifferent, generous, glutton, giving, selfish, trustworthy, dishonest, good, evil etc
I think this is a really interesting idea!

"Painting" the new code name for masturbation for both men and women.
hehehe.

5.) Favorite color? Orange
The colour which vain assholes turn after a session in the tanning salon; Often confused with Hepatitis.
bahahahaha.


6.) Birthplace? Calgary
An awesome city with some great people, and some assholes. Yes, there are sluts here, but there are sluts anywhere else too. Interesting people. And 17th Ave is pretty fun, as is downtown and Mission. Should be the capital of Alberta.

A pretentious city with delusions of grandeur and penis envy (Toronto's dick is way bigger). I equate Calgary to the farmboy redneck who just won the lottery and bought himself a new car, new clothes and a fancy house. You may look good, you may have money, but Calgary you still have no class or sophistication, because deep down you are still a redneck.

n. Etymologists are divided over whether it derives from the Latin word, calgarus, meaning "crass," or a blackfoot word, calgaree, meaning, "strange race in cowboy boots who guzzle thick black liquid from the ground ." In current colloquial usage it is slang for "second-best."


7.) Month of your birth? October
the birthstone for this month is Opal, but there is also a cheaper Rose Zicron.
and it's also the best month ever if your birthday is in it
the next person who gives me a fucking pink cz for birthday is gonna get it shoved somewhere uncomfortable. hehe.

October, the 10th, and obviously the best month of the year, and is so for several reasons.
1. OKTOBERFEST
2. Birthstone is Opal
3. Zodiac signs Libra and Scorpio
4. Most likely conceived between Christmas and Valentines Day (giggity).
hahahaha.

8.) Last person you talked to? Dean
Used to describe someone really cool or high up on a social chain. These people are very powerful so must be respected.
does this come from the whole Dean of the School thing? o_o

To hit someone in the face; often a small child with a basketball

A friend of yours who thinks he's superior to everyone, but has many inadequacies.

9.) One of your nicknames? LJ
lj often stands for loljob,
you give somebody a loljob by loling and giving them a job. It may also refer to the art of raping eggs.

To fall off or over an object, usual under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. In the manner of Lisa Jackson.

The act of oral sex on a women.

So, again I'm neglecting ol dA - my apologies, peeps.

I've been sick a LOT this year, so it's been a little hard keeping up in school, much less taking pretty pictures of my stuff for y'all.

That being said, I should mention that tonight was my first jewelry show at school:

Metalmorphosis: Fauna Obscura.

I thought it was just a show in addition to a competition, but it was a competition. Everyone who came voted on their top 3 pieces, then they were tallied.

I won second place.
Yeah.
So.

How's that for awesome? I didn't know it was a competition until there was voting. I finished my pieces (shell guys, you'll see them as soon as I take a pic that doesn't suck) - four of them. They're awesome. And I'm totally stoked.

I haven't really been keeping up with dA since school started this year, and I apologize for that. It's been a really busy year for me - five courses the first semester (which was just way too stressful), living way farther from school and friends than I did last year, and family issues (Grama has Alzheimers and we've been alternating care between us (me and mom), and my aunt, trying to get her into a home, and trying to get her a nurse until then)...

I remain a solid B-ish average studio student. Glee. And I actually passed all my courses! Go me! I'm glad, if I had to retake the stupid first year course again, I'd probably end up dropping out of ACAD altogether.

This semester has been great. I've got Art History: Modernism, Metalsmithing Skills II, Jewelry: Media Skills, and Silkscreening (Print, not cloth).
∞ I'm not a big fan of History, but trying to keep interested. My instructor is an adorable woman of unknown (to me) European background, with a lovely voice and gorgeous accent that is unfortunately quite easy to fall asleep to.
∞ Metalsmithing is with Charles Lewton-Brain, who I highly recommend looking up - he's a pretty big deal in the Jewelry/Metals world, has published books (on Fold Forming, which is TOTALLY COOL, btw), and maintains a huge free resource site, ganoksin.com. He's nice, and positive, and generally awesome. Metalsmithing focuses on advancing metal skills in larger scales than most jewelry - our first project is a vessel that is a minimum 4". My profile pic shows the model for my piece, though I've doubled the pattern for the actual metal.
∞ Media Skills is pretty cool. Dee Fontans (check her out, peeps!) is the instructor, she was Tracy's teacher in first year Jewelry, and she's big on wearable art and doing crazy stuff, such as this hip hop dance based on jewelry. Glee.
∞ Silkscreening is interesting and very fun. The instructor, Heather Huston, is a happy, perky, cute lady. She's really nice, and I'm totally digging her class! I have lots of plans and ideas.

I'll try to update more often with some art.. I should be documenting it often now.

Update? Orly?

Things have been super busy!! Five courses are too many, but for the most part I'm enjoying the school life. Jewelry is going supremely awesomely, I am loving almost every minute of it.

Design and Presentation is a little less enjoyable, simply for the fact that it seems to be geared toward mass production and I'm not really interested in that.

I'll be posting some new stuff at some point, when I get a chance. I'm not doing much to post about quite yet.

As always, my livejournal is updated much more frequently, at my etsy has some stuff on it.
