Winter Break Last Day

spent the first two weeks worrying about modernism final
bugging the hell outta virginia adams and my advisor
thinking of fighting back through grade appeal
gathering an army of people to bring adams down
hahaha turns out i actually didn't fail the class
adams never emailed me back
felt stupid and embarrassed for another week
and that's how i spent the three weeks of winter break
talking on the phone with a friend saying it over and over again "we're gonna kick ass this semester"

the last week of winter break i tried to fit in everything that i can do in a week
painted a bit
made stupid collages
sketched random things a bit
made plans that never fell through
oh i finished crocheting and sewing together two pillows
had lunch dinner here and there
got a haircut
talks with friends and cigarettes that i'm hoping i break away from some time soon
ate way too much
two meals a day with everything i can stuff myself with
i saw myself walking into jo ann fabrics and i seriously looked like a hippo hahaha
shallow thoughts worries

thought i should have a closure to this
winter break blogging

Winter Break Day 23

just reading some monologues

5 days till mica

Winter Break Day 20

so i realized that my scanned files are the size of africa

i'll come around to fix them some other time

lately i've been just diggin through my old highschool artwork

those bnw photos are from my basic photo class

i was given assignments, specific things i had to photograph

my favorite assignments were light and shadows, edges, and ambiguous spaces.

i always felt like my photos were bland because i always focused so heavily on creating snippet compositions from already existing space. i wanted to push the ambiguity and obscurity in compositions to further question how i perceived space.

i feel like i had a hard time trying to gather my ideas in this class because i didn't feel the need to motivate myself even until the end of the year.

i'm not the best printer when it comes to bnw photos either

but these photos are precious to me.

i continued bnw photography at mica too. i ended up being a ghost in that class too.

i want to continue photography!

8 days till mica (i was counting down wrong)

Winter Break Day 18

Winter Break Day 17

10days since my last post

Not much has happened the last ten days

yesterday was beach day

I got to do some sketches of seagulls

it's surreal considering that i'm on winter break, and miami's just hot enough to let my friends and i go beachin in the sand. the water was freezing i heard so i didn't go in it

it was a rough drive too because i managed to get us (me and sarah) lost in downtown (the hardest place to get the hell outta) but eventually we were back on us-1 and on our way to key biscayne

since we got there at an awkard time 2:44 the sun was already starting to set

we were all worried that we might get an uneven tan but when i got home i didn't get a tan at all which was fine. beach picnic day isn't far away. i also managed to sleep from 9pm till 1130am.

me and my best friend

sketching that man who was severely forshortened

12 days till mica
