trick or treat, motherfuckers
oh my god, how much do i love college?
i just feel so fucking stimulated. Today it was gorgeous, Caitlin decided randomly to be amazingly awesome and offer me the use of her holga, so I got to photograph and talk with random people in the park. I talked to erica, one of the photo majors, at starbucks, and she told me about her documentary project which is so good that it completely inspired me to create way better projects from now on.
I still have a ton of homework to do, but really when I am reading about the south asian diaspora and critiquing Hume's position on aesthetics its hard to complain-- I love learning about this shit. My classes and the readings are getting me to really think in a way that I havent in a long time. Plus theres amnesty and social justice track which are def a whole different kind of learning experience and let me feel all bad ass like i am actually doing something worthwhile with my time.
Plus there are all the ridiculous parties. And boys!
Basically, I am in love with life right now.
I dont want to waste another second.
for the next 3 and a half years, i want to be in just this constant state of overwhelming enthusiasm and excitement and growth and new knowledge...
i know it wont last but this is the goal. I just have to remind myself that this is the state of mind i want to be in.
damn my brain runs so much better on large amounts of coffee, lol.
And a weekend full of compliments has def restored my selfconfidence. I thinki was alittle overwhelmed by the city and all the would-be-hipsters.
