ok, so if Hitler didnt approve of Futurism, Surrealism, Fauvism, Expressionism and Cubism, why did he deem it "Degenerate" art, and put it in a traveling show that hit major cities and had over 3 million people come to see it over the course of 2 years? by showing people what they werent supposed to like, he basically accomplished what he didnt want to. a self fulfilling prophecy. what a moron. i dont like some of it either, but he wouldnt know good art if it hit him in the face.
this are things i was pondering today as i was writing my take home finals. i was definately making myself laugh as i sat in panera bumming off their free samples. i mean, i was there for awhile, so they changed it up every so often. i also found a hot almost coffeeish drink that i like. chocolate mint chai. my oh my yum yum in my tum.
i had a wonderful conversation with jodi today. i was walking around borders, and i felt like i wasnt really allowed to talk on the phone, like i was in the library or something. maybe its the books. i cant wait to see her in a few weeks. we are going to be queens of spontaneity. when else in your life can you go to NYC for new years? we shall see what happens. i can say that im a better person because of knowing her. thats cool. she rubs off on ya.
i had one of those moments again. its where im talking to someone that i know, but not really well, and we are talking about school. it comes up that im stuyding literature and art history, and they say "oh whats your favorite book?" then i freeze, i blank, i stutter, i feel like i forgot how to read. i try to come up with something intelligent to say. why cant i ever remember what books ive liked? i need to read more, thats the end point. next semester we wont have a tv. this will be good for my brain. why doesnt anyone ask me who my favorite artist are? i know those off the top of my head...... it was funny
tomorrow i need to finish my 8 pager, then im done with this semester. i thought it would never come/it went really fast. how are both of those things happening simultaneously? i think im going home friday, but im nervous to drive home. i dont like going by myself, and i wish that the roads would just be fine, and ice didnt exist. even when i get home, nobody will be there. my mom is going out of town , and my dad is going to be in detroit practically weekend. im not in any rush anyway.
