Artscow.com is a fairly new photo website, that is much like Shutterfly. I found it looking through Deal News’ photo deals. Not only is this site waaaay cheap, they also have a lot of great promotions going on from time to time.

Just this month, they had this deal:

I worked my ass off and created 30 (yes, I said 30) digital scrapbooking layouts out of the photos I took while my family was in Boracay. It turned out awesome digitally, but I can’t wait to see it in print.

I was hoping to take advantage of this deal more than one time, but even I couldn’t make that many layouts! Each layout was taking me around 20-30 minutes each… times that by 30… and you get between 10-15 hours of straight work per book. *sigh* I hope it’ll be worth it!

I should be getting my book within the next two weeks so I’ll be sure to post photos and write a review.

In the meantime, get your own custom 12-month calendar for $5. I am planning to get this as soon as I have some free time from school to get the deal… but 5,000 calendars have probably been ordered already… Eeek!

Me getting reading for school. This was when I was still living in the Philippines.

Today, a Tuesday, will be my first day of school — Fall 2008 semester, anyway. I’m kind of excited, kind of not. There’s a million other things on my mind besides it, like money, that i’m worried about.

But, first. Here is my schedule.

• Biology 189 [3 credits]
• Biology 189L [1 credit]
• Medical Terminology 117B [1 credit]
• Computer Keyboarding 101B [3 credits]
• Pharmaceutical Math 105B [3 credits]
• Philosophy 124 [3 credits]
• Psychology 101 [1 credit] retaking for better grade

In total, I am taking 17 credits this semester. Last semester. I achieved a 3.0 with 15 credits.

This past summer, I received a 4.0 with 6 credits. No, I’m not bragging! I’m 21 and still in a freshman… kind of embarassing… But on a positive note, at least I’m in college and in college for a reason. Not just in college so I can say, “Yeah, I go to college.” There’s actually people like that. Weird, huh?

Well, wish me luck today. *crosses fingers*
