Today was... the last day of class!

I am soooooo glad to be done with it! Because I am taking a lot of art classes I will not have many finals. Instead we had final projects and portfolios to turn in the past few days, so that was stressful. But it's OVER! And I don't have any finals until May 5th and 10th, so I have a bit of time to catch up on sleep and relax outside between studying sessions.

I will also be able to hang out with some of my irl friends who play sc2 and screw around in 4v4s with them. It's a lot of fun when you are all sitting in the same room together, screaming SEND YOUR MARINES I'M DYING AHHHHHHHH.

I am also INCREDIBLY EXCITED THAT MY NEW TABLET IS ARRIVING TOMORROW! I had a wacom tablet for 6 years that broke this past October. Since then I have been saving what little money I can that doesn't go to groceries, and I finally bought an Intuos4 Large. It is sooooo sexy! First thing I plan on doing is making EPIC SC2 ART!

Also, I will be able to buy a new phone in a month, because my contract is about to expire! Yay no more brick phone! And I will make enough this summer to build a brand new fucking amazing computer with pretty lights in it that can actually run photoshop without crashing! Wewt!

Finally, my lover is moving to NYC to work for google (yay gj!), but he will be coming back and forth to stay with me over the summer so hopefully I will get to do a lot of fun things with him instead of like last summer when he was 3k miles away the entire time.

Oh and they are turning on the AC in my building which is GREAT because it is really really hot out now and I wake up stuck to my bed every morning. ._____. Gross.

(Sorry for the caps and exclamation marks... I am a little caffeinated and sleep deprived, and very genuinely excited about everything right now lol.)

Which Tablet? I am also looking to invest in one. (Though I am a poor broke student like millions.)
What would be good for a starting out one?
Use it or lose it

I am getting an Intuos4 Large. I got it with a student discount at a site called provantage, which turned out to be a very good deal. (It was originally $500, and I got it for $350.) If you have never used a tablet before and would just like to get one to try out and get used to before investing a lot of money in a serious one, try one of the Wacom Bamboo tablets. They have less buttons and extras, and are generally a little smaller, but basically-- you can draw on them with a tablet pen and it shows up on your computer screen, which is all you need.

If you are using a tablet for the first time, it is a little strange to not look at you pen touching the tablet as you draw, but you quickly develop the hand-eye coordination for it. It is a bit frustrating at first, but with a little time you will get used to it and can decide if it's something you are really interested in. Alternatively to buying a cheap one, you can check if your school has any computer labs with drawing tablets that you can test out before deciding.

Yeah if you are unsure you should get a Bamboo, you can always sell it on ebay and get an Intous if you like it.

Personally I own a medium sized Intous3 that is about 5 years old now. I'm not very good (don't really have much time for drawing sadly) but I enjoy using it whenever I get the chance.

Pretty much stick with Wacom as far as tablets go though. They really are miles ahead of anything else.

If you are looking for a good drawing program that isn't photoshop I recommend Paint Tool SAI. It has really good pressure support, super easy to use and great keyboard shortcuts.
