Thank you Alberto “Sting” Russo, your portfolio has inspired me.

Next on the agenda is…. what happened to updating this thing? hahaha That is my fault. College transfers are wrapped up but my portfolio website and hosting site are not up yet. Besides that, I have a plate full of projects to take care of and those come first since I am getting paid for them. Fashion school is expensive and I have got to pay for the cloth, pins, needles, swatches, embelishments and miscellaneous art supplies! In the end it is worth it because it will result in a fashion career eventually. Graphic designing has become a source of income for me now so I am not going to say no to a potential client. So that is what is up with thatttt.

One last thing. SOCIAL NETWORKS. NO, I do not have a Twitter. I have gotten emails about that. Reason being because I like having my life being private and will only share so much with the rest of the world. Nor do I have a MySpace though my portfolio contains a large portion of work done on there. I just know how to work with their CSS/HTML and do not have a personal account. Personal choice of mine soo yeah. I do have a Facebook but unless you want to run a search on my name, I am not going to be giving it out just yet.

I leave you with something a bit more light-hearted. Lyrics should give you a laugh if you haven’t heard the song before.

Bare with me while all of these changes are going on throughout the site. If you have any questions feel free to contact me via email. Whether it is for this site or questions about hosting under the new domain. And YES subdomains will be free, I will just implement regulations to ensure that you are fully capable and willing to manage your subdomain on your own. It will not be necessary to have knowledge of graphic design seeing as how there are great programs like WordPress and B2evolution where templates may be used. So please if you want to be hosted as soon as possible on Oh-Word.com do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you very much.

01/14/2010 UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!
I have realized my online portfolio has become massive and there is still more to add with all of the new work I have done so far in the past year or so that I still have yet to put up. Because of its massive size and the fact that its stretched over so many categories (Painting, Illustration, Graphic Design) I will be moving my portfolio to a new website all together, keeping it separate from CheckTheMentality.com. Also, note that because I am/have submitted the URL of my portfolio for college transfers that the portfolio will be getting my utmost attention from anywhere between two weeks and a month before I turn back to maintaining this website. Reason for this being I have already submitted a portfolio URL some places and need to work quickly.  The listing for my network of websites will be:

CheckTheMentality.com – personal website & blog
Oh-Word.com – free subdomains and low cost hosting
Lastly, my portfolio. Have not decided on a name but will soon!

01/19/2010 FINAL UPDATEEEE!!!
THIS site has been working on and off all day yesterday and today. I am just transferring hosting seeing as my domain name expired and everything might get deleted inbetween. Sorry for the inconvenience! Especially if you are here to use resources and anything like that.

P.S. My portfolio site is going to be MissJanssen.com! Joining my network of sites including this one and Oh-Word.com.

It is 1:03am, no early class tomorrow. Psyched. Sorry that her tutor displaced her knee. OUCH! But that means I get 2 hours more sleep. During one of my two classes, I am going to try to start on coding ideas. Need to come of with some new and exciting things. Plus it makes decisions quicker once I pull up notepad.

Uhm.. oh yeah. My last entry was up for like a day before I put up that Gaga sign about the revamp. I have been working on the vamping up part! Got tons more stuff for the portfolio. Learned new things to make tutorials for thanks to my photoshop class. Taking down the shop. Sorry no more time for it anymore! Will be setting up the subdomain for graphic design requests, but I am still trying to figure out a way to make it so I can inform people of days I can not do any? Like I don’t want to post up my class schedule or nights I go out haha, but something. So people can see why I am taking long to respond back?

Besides that, still have school. Loads of work. But for once I love it. I am currently studying fashion, for those that do not know at London College of Fashion for the year. Yeah, that intro thingy on the side is def wrong. Need to update haha. There is nothing “academic” about it. I love it. Except one thing. This does not have to do with fashion, but I have a yearning to do math all of a sudden? Like english whatevs. I can write an essay on anything any day. Look at the notes section on my iTouch. But math?! It has gotten to the point. When I can not get rid of this craving, I look up algebra problems to do. I would do precal too, but haa don’t have a graphing calculator! Sad though. I must have no life OR maybe my high school prepared me too well?

p.s. To my affiliates!! Sorry for the abrupt hiatus I took, tell me how you’re doing in a comment :]

/*EDIT*/ I put this Nicki theme up already. Tweaks are done. Opinions? Adding pieces to the portfolio in graphic, mixed media, maybe illustration. Took the shop down. Music is up. Think that’s it. Starting next entry will be changing the blog up a bit.
