Internships, a Typical Day
So today I show up for my internship and no one is there. The door is locked and the lights are off. This has happened before with people running late, so I wait in the conference room in the hall as usual, and yet no one comes. I am the first one to come in at 11AM- by the time the next intern comes in at 1PM there is still no sign. Other businesses in the building are becoming sympathetic and telling us we can use their water coolers. Very kind. The other two come, and we stay till 3PM until at last leaving in disgust. No one knows anything about the office being closed. We don't know what the hell is going on.
I was doing legitimate intern work on my laptop, but after a while, I got tired. So I fixed my GIMP program and found a random picture to experiment on.
I desaturated, did a sobel edge detect, and stripped this thing down to its sharpest black and whites using Curves.
I then put a white background behind it and hand colored it with the airbrush tool.
Then I decided what the hell and just Andy Warhol-ed it.
(small blurry version)
Then all the interns said frak this shit, and we went for Ben & Jerry's.
And today's a special red letter day, so now I'm going to get a heat pack and lay here in misery for a good while. My life for the next couple of hours:
