I Have to be Social!


So the first years are throwing a little party for the second years tonight in order to celebrate their reviews being over.

So I have to be social. eeks! I haven't really had to make conversation with anyone other than Michael or K.Trinks for quite awhile. How does one go about making small talk? Haha :)
I actually really hate small talk. Hate it. I also hate talking about myself, and rarely remember to ask people about themselves. God I am so bad with people...

Wish me luck. Oh! I got so much painting done today. Hopefully I'll be able to post some new paintings in my shop by Sunday. Fingers crossed.

I still have homework to do. I really hate it. I don't think I have ever hated doing homework as much as I hate doing this homework. In fact, I think I enjoyed doing Algebra homework more than doing these gouache paintings for graphic design. Argh.

I found this picture of Chloe and I was remembering how tiny she was when we got her...like a little hamster! Super cutes!

Poor Chloe



So Chloe started puppy training classes yesterday.
She was really good, and very well behaved. There is only one other dog that is signed up for the class, and because the main purpose for her taking these classes is so that she gets socialized we decided to take her to a dog meet up at the same Petco...

Poor Chloe. She gets so excited and overwhelmed that she just gets sick...
She puked like 10 times while we were there. We put her down and all these dogs just came running over to her and she didn't know what to do so she puked. There was a little Jack Russell that kept following her and trying to play but she didn't want to so she just puked. Poor little girl. She just ran and hid under people's chairs and in the corner, and she puked.

I hope she gets better with this. She is fine with just Georgia playing in our apartment...I think it's just when there are a lot of people and other dogs she doesn't know what to do. She has social anxiety just like me!! Poor thing.

I hope it gets better.

On another note, I got all my paintings ready to ship out tomorrow for the Papercuts and Gluesticks show! I just have to type up an artist statement and tape it up. I hope it doesn't cost a million dollars to send. I think they will be posting the images on the internets so I'll post something when that happens. I am excited.

That's it for today. I have a lot of homework yet, and I want to watch the Democratic/Republican debate. Hope everyone is well and safe.
