weekends? of course not!

Sat Jun 6, 2009, 12:53 PM
I'm working in New Orleans now. My second project in AmeriCorps NCCC, working with Green Light New Orleans installing CFLs in homes and doing independent service projects nearly every day because I need 80 hours of those. Almost there with 68!
Project one was painting cabins and working for the Boys and Girls Clubs for eight weeks in Jackson, MS. Middle of nowhere, in the woods, attacked by wasps and a weird skin rash, damn plastic mattresses, "see them clouds? it gowna rain", cleaning up the mess left by a tornado, !!! But wait, it was a good time too! The team bonded, we tye-dyed some shirts, celebrated some birthdays, watched movies (even though it was an hour drive to the theater), did the stanky leg, I jumped in this gross lake (which is probably where the rash came from, it covered half my body and itched like mad; took two weeks and a $40 cream that they mixed up at a local pharmacy to get rid of it), and I actually enjoyed the painting the cabins (even though it was a clashing combo of grey walls and caution-cone orange windows). Shit, I had an awesome time in retrospect. I have no want to ever go back to Jackson, however.

New Orleans is awesome, and I think I'm addicted to coffee. Damn 6am PT and oftentimes 11 hour work days. Whatever.
Zen mind, zen body please. (:

Yeah, I'm working with AmeriCorps NCCC this year, so I've been busy since Febuary. Plus, my team and I were stationed at a camp in the woods in Mississippi for the past two months. We're in New Orleans now, so I have access to wifi cafes! Hahah.
How are you, anyway? I haven't had enough time to check out recent journal entries. Have you had any more luck with getting your artwork displayed publicly?
Hi, I am well. Sorry it took me like forever to respond. I have been pretty busy myself lately. 2 jobs and school right now. We have some big changes coming up later on this year and we are gearing up for that. Glad you are keeping busy and hope you are having fun. :Hug: Nikka

Freaking awesome icon by =VampireJaku
The design is joy to my eyes. It caused me to laugh, smile and nod. Art which can affect the viewer is brilliant art in my perspective! It impresses me.
