Things are great. This week has been incredibly hectic since I've been preparing for my portfolio banquet all week. Most night's I've been up until 2:30, and it was really weird because there were a couple nights that I ended up staying at school until 11. It was this horribly busy time leading up the banquet, but once everything fell into place it ( Read more... )

The weekend has been going surprisingly well ( Read more... )

Stressing out at the end of the school year is definitely not cool. I'm not quite sure how many days of school that I have left, but I know that this week is the last "full week." All of the other weeks have at least one day where we don't have to go to school for various reasons such as holidays and whatnot. I have this nagging rushed feeling that ( Read more... )

Today went by really fast, and some kind of amusing events took place. (Namely Mr. A BLASTING Patty Griffin.) So here's what happened ( Read more... )

It just dawned on me that my Seminar in Visual Communications banquet is on the 21st. 13 days away. That means that I only have 13 days to construct a creative set and mount all of my art. Argh! With all of my other classes and various other stuff I've been busy with, I haven't really had time to concentrate on putting together a showcase. I've ( Read more... )

American History X was on IFC last night. No matter how many times I watch it, I inevitably end up feeling quite depressed afterwards. It always leaves me with the same sort of feeling that I get after I watch Boys Don't Cry ( Read more... )

So I'm leaving for my trip to chicago in about half an hour, and these are the current conditions according to Weather Underground ( Read more... )

One of my favorite things to do is to go to a bookstore or coffee house with a couple of friends and just hang out and talk for hours on end. Last night I went to Barnes & Noble with Joe and Gwendolyn, and then we ended up at Borders after we got tired of B&N. I had a really nice time, Joe and Gwen are interesting to talk to because they have so ( Read more... )

I just wrote a kinda long entry, but it was lost when my PC crashed. Oh well. When Alex dropped me off today, I walked into the house and my mom was BLASTING my Orchestrated Madness mix CD. She had been painting the kitchen and living room (coffee house colors. Yellow and green, if anyone's wondering...) and was listening to Ani, Ben Harper, Kinnie ( Read more... )

Chicago was okay. But it just seems like every time that I go there I end up missing the charm of it. I never really go to the right places, everything downtown just seems *so* lame and touristy. However, toward the end of the day a kind of cool thing happened. I was sitting in a coffee house drinking my latte & watching people go by. I also had my ( Read more... )
