i find it kinda funny, i find it kinda sad, the dreams in which im dying are the best ive ever had
Round 2.
So its snowing. It snowed most of the morning then started being sporadic around 1. How I love the snow. Its absolutely beautiful. I want to call my mom about it now, but technically I'm supposed to be in clase right now. (Ahh! Code-switching!) How I regret the day that I wrote out that schedule for her. BLAST!
Lately I've been melting everything with my curling iron. Not on purpose, mind you. It just so happens that my hair prepping "area" is also the top of my dresser, which means its where I also keep all my purfumes, jewelry, make-up, the halloween basket my mom gave me, vitamins, lotions, hairbrushes, and just other random shit that needs a place. I melted a plastic bag, a make-up container, and a water bottle (which was very interesting when all the water came rushing out...). Last semester I melted a vitamin container, which was actually a good thing because I never had to deal with that annoying twisty thing, I just tipped the bottle, and pills came out! That said, I have a NEW new years resolution: Don't melt shit.
Today, we had a little bit of a review of our homework assignments for arch lecture. Not so much a review, but basically they didn't tell us what they wanted, just gave us a vague idea, and so thats what they got in return. Shit. It was assigned as an 11 x 14 page where you had to pose a question and answer it. Blah blah blah boring. So here's the reason for this rundown. There are three TA's for this class, ok? They are three graduate students in the architecture school. So for my question, I "asked" what type of drawing best represents an architects work? And my answer was a graphic layout of different drawings done of the guggenheim. So, on the page I had a plan the size of the whole page and I made it transparent and underneath I put an autocad representation, a section, and then one of Gehry's really quick emotion sketches. So its was like, is the best way a volumetric representation, technical drawings, or an architects impression of his building. And so they're talking about how all of them are bad, and not what they wanted. But they had like 5 groupings of whose was best to worst. And Danielle, my ta, pointed out mine saying the graphic layout was really good, but that the pixilation was bad (my images were a bit fuzzy, I mean, I got them off the internet and blew them up. shit happens.) But they were talking about how none of the questions where thoughtful. And Gay was like well, are there any up there that do pose good questions? (They had pinned up all our pages) And the two girl TA's were just looking and Nathaniel, I think thats his name, well, I have a mini crush on him, and hes all "I have a favorite." And he procedes to talk about mine! And how it was about perception and stuff. Fabulous. Ah, I was like sweet. And John Chen was behind me, and was like, that one was yours right? And I was like yea, and he said good job and I was like man, today I'm so on. So that was really exciting. Probably only because of my mini crush. :)
So I've also been hitting the gym a lot lately. Its really good. I went yesterday afternoon, and the day before, and so on, but for two days in a row I did like weight training. And nothing on my body hurts except for my inner thighs. Oh man, super sore. I try stretching them, but I think that just makes it worse, ha ha. I had one knee on a stool today in studio, and then I moved my other leg and it was awful. OWWWWWWWWWWW.
Speaking of having your legs open, today I filled out a sex survey for StudLife (our student newspaper, or should I say, our jew-hating newspaper). I assume my answers will be part of the statistics in the Valentines edition. The newspaper comes out mon wed fri, and as much as it sucks, I do try to read it daily. Or at least skim the headlines to see if there is anything interesting for me to read. But yea, one of the questions was like, do you have to be in love to lose your virginity or have sex? or like should you? something along those lines. And I circled no. I didn't realize until I gave the survey back to him and walked away what I had put meant about myself and my views on love and sex. Its strange to discover that you didn't really know how you feel until someone asks you.
