Man, so however cliche this sounds...

Damn college is expensive.

After some mishap with our third roommate opting to find his own place, rent has gone up in excess of $100.

On top of that, I despirately need a new bike (partially because the one I have now keeps trying to murder me and partially because once I have a better bike, I'll have a non-lethal means to trek on over to the BioLife clinic and see if my body is healthy enough to give plasma, and thus- get more money).

Oh, and I never quite figured out that I had enough financial aid to make it through the summer even with the smaller rent.

So, how am I gonna get through this?

Ask daddy-dear for an early birthday present (bike money)? yeah, that MIGHT work. I still haven't gotten paid for the fish I drew for my step mom (last.. february?) -_-

Oh here's an idea- sell arts!
This means that in the midst of my midterm preps, I have to go through my website again, make sure everything is nice and updated, and figure out how to promote myself. (not terribly difficult..)

Oh yeah, and draw. I haven't drawn very much in the past year, in volume or quality. Sure there are pieces that I've done. Sure some are really good. Some of the really good ones are worthy of selling. Other really good ones have too much sentiment to sell.  I made the mistake of hanging my owl picture, so I don't want to sell it now. My faerie picture is just too special to sell, aside from being a bit too 3D to feel safe mailing it.

Also, I don't have a ready and cheap way to mat pictures. OYF.

Thoughts?
