| It's been over two months since Stephanie & I moved into our new place in Sherman Oaks, but I've finally decided to take the time and post (show it off) already. Sherman Oaks is a great location for anyone interested in living in LA. Other than downtown, its the perfect distance from almost anyplace in the city: Santa Monica, Northridge, Burbank, Hollywood, even Santa Clarita!
( Look! )
If you find yourself near the 405 & the 101 give us a call & come visit. We hardly have the time usually, but we do enjoy visitors.
I think that's it...GOOD NIGHT! -Stu | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment  |

| Hello Family & Friends
Work's kept me real nice & busy this summer but I haven't forgotten about any of you out there. If y'all wanna keep up with what I'm doing as of late, then keep track of my blog: (it's not very interesting yet) http://stubacca100.blogspot.com I've been using this blog as a means of showing my art online, before my website goes up (the one I haven't really started designing yet but should :(... lol... but it will remain, essentially as my main blog. I haven't officially abandoned Livejournal, so I may still use it for messages intended for the sisters & the Table, just thought I'd throw this out there anyway
laterrrr -Stu | comments: Leave a comment  |

| Just got back in town today for my last doctor's appt. (hopefully) which is tomorrow.
I've been developing my drawing style a lot lately - focusing a lot on my cartooning skillz, something I haven't really been very capable of doing till now.
Among many others, I drew these today. These are the only ones inked in. I haven't cleaned em up yet but I'll post em now anyway.

| So I'm applying for this job as an illustrator for a sign language education company. They asked me to create four ethnic characters performing four specific name signs (taking a letter, performing a unique action w/ it - that's how you say a name in sign I guess, ask Jason I dunno). Even if I dont get the job I'm proud of these so here they are

| Collin suggested I update with a recounting of the current events which have taken place in my life here at CSUN... It's kind of late so it's tough looking for inspiration in writing about such a broad thing as my experiences within the past seven or so weeks. I live in a nice dorm with very varied, and wonderful people on all sides of me which I'm very fortunate to haev come upon - my happiness can only be described as starkly contrasting to the loneliness and desolate feelings I had during my first weeks here. I've been fortunate enough to form strong bonds with the people here that I know may last for years after graduation, taht is if I play my cards right haha, and their companionship, thankfully, is sufficient enough to sustain me until I come back to the people up north who are (hopefully) awaiting my return too (not to sound like a showboat here...). One of the thigns that I hoped to anticipate during the beginnings of my moved-out career would be the change that might take place in me that as taken place(rather drastically) in many others of us who've drawn their paths away from Bakersfield. I can't consciously tell for sure if I've changed very much however, despite continuing in my old habits such as enjoying myself just sitting in my room reading or on the computer, I feel as if I'm becoming more outgoing and learning not to worry so much about what others think of me. Looking back I now realize that my reactions to change have certainly become more rational and less troublesome as they once were. None of this seems really relevant to any of you guys though so I'll just move on. I've kept, for the most part, fairly busy these days: keepin track of my financial aid, making sure to run every weeknight after class w/ my floormate(s), maknig sure to make it to Volleyball every Wednesday night (probably the best thing to happen to me in months), and spending as much time in the animation lab as necessary to complete my projects. I've become more creative and productive in art as well...I've, every now and then, been fortunate enough to find spare time to work on personal art projects - something I rarely exercised back home. I also wish it'd get cold sometime it's the middle of October for Chrissakes. One funny thing I've noticed very frequently is the variety of reactions that I get when people find out I'm from Bakersfield: "Ohhhhh...that sucks" "There's nothing there! It's so desolate!" "Just recently I was at Bakersfield...the most POS town I swear"(overheard from person's conversation). I find myself very often defending Bakersfield as a town which really isn't so bad and unless you're some downtown-douche who'll hardly find the time outside of crappy shows and their stupid makeout parties (haha) to see past that. It's like Jason said; it's good to have pride in your home and you may as well since it's the only one you've got(...well, that I've got, it seems like). Coming into this campus, more specifcally these dorms, as what feels like the only non-voluntarily single guy leaves something to be felt, howver having just let go of a pointless obligation I've put myself to for the past six years has really made me realize the value of my privacy and how much I really like being by myself. At the moment I don't think I could or would want to devote a large amount to someone else until I feel that I've spent tnough time working on me, which is Godknowswhen. Besides that I think I'm getting a thing for this girl in 3D Design but it's nothing now...that or the girl from Eisley aiyaiyaieee... I think people see me as a much less complicated person than...well...than I think I am. Enough about that. Unfortunately I haven't gone on any adventuers yet in the bigass city. We were supposed to go to the beach but that ended up not happening. Other than what I'v ealerady discussed, it's been pretty plain here aside from...well...volleyball - I get bored pretty easily and this week managed to skip two classes in two days which, admittedly, I'm rather proud of haha. Sorry to my family for not calling I'm just not best friends w/ the phone these days.
