somebody buy me this

Kiddiiiiiiing (yes, well), please, allow me to disturb your time with mine. This journal was finally finished at 8.30 D:

Long journals are longer

It's 6.30 AM. I'm sitting here with a coffee. I woke up all of a sudden and couldn't come back to sleep, I hope I can take a nap sometime in the evening or I'll be damn tired for tonight.

Anyways, this is like the right moment to think about the almost gone year, isn't it?

It's been extreme for me, it's had some pretty good moments, and some pretty bad ones as well.
For instance, this last course in the uni started fably, I told myself this was gonna be a good year for me, and it is being. I met people, some of 'em already known but they were people I never spent time with. And then a pair of new awesome persons came into my life. One of them specifically is more than awesome :flirty: if you get me ;]
And so I've spent memorable times with them. You know, I have GREAT friends, most since I was 7 and 14 years old, but even though I'd never change them, they're not as me. Let's say they don't share my style. I'm a hippie :juggle:, and can't help that D:
My classmates, for instance, do follow my steps.

Leaving that aside, things in my life have been damned chaotic. I'm not a person who generally tells her life on here, but I can tell you I've gone through really hard times.
I'm jobless, and my mother got jobless as well, which is, oh, fuckingly fucking.
I don't have a camera, this fact could be pretty stupid for some, but I'm sure it's pretty important for some others, those who understand the impotence I feel, because, well, I'm a journalist, and I need to enter in that world, so that led my plans to the shit.

I won't give up, though, I don't really know what I'll do with my life, but if music doesn't knock my door (which will do, yes... By the way, I'm a musician, if you didn't know that), I know I don't wanna work 8 hours at day in an office.
Call me dreamer, alright, I've assumed that, it's just that I won't settle down for less.
And this is the way I am. As it'd be said in Spanish, a damn fly. What means, a pain in the ass :psychotic:

About dA

You keep reading? :omfg: I don't believe you!

Anyways, about dA, well, this' been the year when I've started to come into. I've been here since '07 but never tried to check the inside. Don't ask me why, I'm that kind of person who doesn't step on others' feet. But this year I've done it.
I've met awesome people over here, and I've known how dA works in a deeper way.
I started my own Club, :iconcallmeoriginal:, and I got part of some other clubs and proyects as well. I even applied for GM! But I'm very glad they didn't pick me, I wasn't ready yet, and FaMz is doing a good work attending every single suggestion.
I'll apply again, though :chew:

But, let me tell you, 2009 will see a different Soraya (or Smyle, whatever :ignore:), since I'll be changing the Gallery, my photography will change, not that much, but I'm simply not doing all I can, and so that's what I will. Tehehehe.

Proyects

:pointr: So, moar music!
I've been a lot of time without crazy trips, and I need that again in my life.
This year, per order, I've been able to see 30 Seconds To Mars, twicethreefour times, in Dublin, Manchester and London, again *ahem* and Extremoduro, an AWESOME Spanish rock band I've been fan of since I'm... errrrr, 10? For twice, as well. I never have enough :crying:

And so, I need moar.
I have a musical proyect ahead, for a film.. but.. I... can't... say... anything else :whisper:

:pointr: Photographly speaking, I'll get the Nikon D80 along with the 50mm 1.8 and a tele yet to decide. That will apply for most of my range and then I'll stalk concert photographers about lens and such (*cough*straightfromcamera*cough*) to check what else I need.

:pointr: CallMeOriginal will keep on :D
:pointr: And Smyle will be a better person. I won't quit smoking, sorry :ohnoes:
but I've already quitted eating my nails :devilish:

:pointr: I'll get a diploma that'll say "Soraya can speak English, I so certificate it, congrats" (just for the hell of it, you know, to have some proof :reading:) after spending 5 days in a Spanish city talking in English all the time.
Aaand next year I'll be able to say HELL YES, I'M ALREADY A QUALIFIED JOURNALIST.
Well, OKAY, not really, not all of the subjects are passed, okey, but you get it D:
In any case, I still have two years of degree ahead :lmao:

Lyke so sorry for the long journal, but it's the first time I bore you, excuse me :crying:

Thanks for every single thing every single of you has given me.
I'm becoming a greater artist because of you.
I sincerely hope you all have an incredible cool last day of the 2008, and a better entry of a moar incredible 2009.
:iconbigheartplz:


...and it's 7.15 rite nao. Like I should totally focus in doing just one thing, eh?
hahaha.

Appreciating the appreciation

The last one of the year! For all of you, the ones who have supported me, the ones who have helped me, the ones who have teached me :blowkiss:
