For months I’ve been trying to finish adding all of my photoshop brushes to dA so that they all link back to fauxism.org. Well today I was finally able to start doing that. I actually ended up deleting ALL of the free ps brushes. Remember those tiny little previews I used to have? Well I’ve replaced them with HUGE previews. Of course you will only see a thumbnail on the site. But the large preview is on dA and on LIGHTS. I like the new previews much MUCH better. They really stand out. I’ve only done one page (20 brush sets) so far. But within the next day or so I plan on replacing the rest. And then hopefully I’ll be able to add about 4 more pages of the rest of my brushes. Why must there be so many?? Anyway here are some previews:

Glitter sparkle brushes, grunge texture brushes, scratch brushes, paint splatter brushes, spiral swirl twirl brushes, bokeh light brushes, pirate skulls brushes, flower floral leaves roses motif brushes
Hey everyone! So my semester is officially over and I am off of my hiatus. I took a few extra days off from the net to just rewind and relax from everything. But now I’m 100% back. =] The site was in desperate need of some updates, so I uploaded four new texture sets.
1. A typography texture set.
2. Colorful bright retro bokeh dots texture set.
3. Wood stock texture set.
4. Street lights effect texture.

I hope you enjoy these. It’s good to be back! I have a ton of posting to catch up on over @ LIGHTS Hopefully I’ll see you there?

Today has literally been one of the worst days ever. First of all I stayed up ALL night studying for an in-class essay I had this morning. I went to bed around 5:30AM and had to wake up at 7:30AM. Doesn’t give me much sleep. Well I usually press the snooze button once or twice before getting up.
7AM rolls around and I press snooze. Afterward I honestly do not remember how many times I pressed snooze… if I even pressed it after ward. I completely passed out and went into a deep deep sleep. I ended up waking up just as my class was starting! OMG. PANIC! I rushed to get dressed and ran out the door and sped to campus. I was going about 60-70MPH on 45MPH roads. Not to mention I had no gas. My little arrow thing was BELOW the orange danger zone. LOL! I have no idea how my car didn’t stop in the middle of the road.
Anyway, I didn’t end up making it to class. I got to campus about 20min before the period was supposed to end and was just bawling my eyes out I couldn’t walk inside to speak with my professor. This was a mandatory essay that cannot be made up. At least that’s what the syllabus says. I cannot afford to miss this essay because one of my other essays is already late. I’m hoping my professor will understand my situation. Basically within one month 3 immediate family members ended up being hospitalized week after week. AND my dog was going to be put to sleep on top of that.
I am so emotionally stressed out and drained it’s not even funny. If my professor doesn’t understand that then I’m pretty much screwed and going to fail the class even though I’ve gotten A’s on all my other assignments. But because of these two essays I’m screwed. ANDDDD I think I’ve missed my 5th class. Which drops me by another full letter grade.
Just fuck my life. I’m screwed either way. =[ I have to email her in the morning. I don’t even know what kind of reaction to expect from her. But I plan on explaining my situation very very clearly. I don’t want to get into any more details about my personal life because I’m just not that kind of person who does that. But that’s a little gist of what’s going on.
I’m going to be taking 2-3 weeks off from the net starting Monday so that I can focus on the end of the semester and catch up on any missed work. I have a 10-page paper to write this weekend also. FUNFUN. Ugh. I can’t wait until college is over with seriously. It’s killing me.
So of all days to be late, luck turns against me and choose this day. But wait it gets better…. today I noticed my glove compartment had some papers sticking out, and my registration booklet was on the ground. I was like wtf… and opened it. And some douche bag stole my GPS!!! I seriously can’t live without a GPS. It’s a total life saver. Why would someone do that? I can’t believe it. =[ I reported it to my college but I doubt they’ll be able to do anything about it.
This week has been such shit. I just want to crawl in a hole and live like a hermit. ROFL. Well… it was nice writing it out.
