What happened to March?

(So excited for this film, and the Japanese poster is inspiring me to learn the language)

Seriously, this month is just flying by, which means that a fourth of the year is already over!

I don't know how I feel about this, but I do feel like my life in Chicago has been jumping from good moments to not so great moments. Financially, I'm doing okay (breaking even for the first time in 6 months!) and I have two part-time jobs that are getting me by. I already know that I don't want to live off of minimum wage, and I want to make myself proud as much as everyone else.

Sadly, I haven't been able to do much creative stuff this month, but the ideas keep rolling. I suppose that's the tricky part to being an artist - you can't just wait for the ideas to be fully fleshed-out before taking the time to write them or draw them. I'm excited for April because I'll be participating in "Script Frenzy" where I'll be drawing 100 pages of a graphic novel in the span of 30 days. With a 39-hour work week, learning Japanese, volunteering at a Literacy Center, and training for a half-marathon at the end of April, and my birthday plans (!)... this is not going to be easy.

Things to do for April:
-celebrate the anniversary of my quitting art school by drawing every day for "Script Frenzy."
-turn 28. Bake my own cake.
-run my first half-marathon.
-successfully translate the BRAVE poster in Japanese.
-write a comedy script.
-get back into Yoga and Dancing.
-use my tax refund for something fun. Maybe a vacation. Or a MacBook Pro.

In other news, The Hunger Games film rocked! =)
