My Work.

It takes a lot for me to show my work. It scares the crap out of me. So enjoy them before I decide to take them down.

I have officially gone insane.

It's official. I am officially broken. Not broke...well, maybe after today, but broken. Just plain crazy. Lunatic but not bipolar. Just broken and crazy. Like no one should mess with me right now crazy. So what happens when Yooms is broken? I don't know.

I've been trying to get my bambu project printed and comped up all week so I can enter it into a few contests. I think that broke me. I needed to go buy some nice napkins for this project. (Don't ask why). I didn't have time to go to a real store, so I went to the bookstore. And on the way to where the napkins are, I passed by all the sweet art books and discounted books. And I purchased some BIG books. Definitely expensive. Did I even make it to the napkins? NOPE. Did I even care? NOPE.

I've been wanting this book since I went to Italy. Except I think the one I really wanted was the one that is a set with the Uffizi Gallery Museum Collection. So, maybe I'll go return this. But maybe not.

And I bought this because I LOVE anatomy and I LOVED the drawings in the book. (Although I hate the association to the name of a very popular TV show). I really want to change my BFA now. Why didn't I do something on the body? I think I really want to. Definitely NOT a good idea, but I'm insane right now, so I do crazy things.
I also forgot my phone at home today. Usually I get really uncomfortable about not having my phone on me at all times. But no, it was glorious today. I LOVED not being bothered by ANYONE. And all I want to do tonight is just watch Jack Black movies by myself. I might even just stay in my lab and watch them all night. Hmmm.... I kinda like that idea.

I LOVE POSTCARDS.

I love getting postcards. They make me happy :)
(Yup. That's right. I used an emoticon. Deal with it.)

HELLO NY.

After we got back from our design trip in March last year, my class made a NY book containing all of our experiences in NY. I just stumbled upon it today. I collected all of my NY scrap into a cigar box I purchased there, scanned them while they were in the box, and made a little booklet. It took forever to get the scanning right. The only photoshopping I did was to crop the background out.

Here it is. (You also get to enjoy my double chin. Savor it.)

THE FIREMAN


We listened to The Fireman Electric Arguments by Paul McCartney and Youth in class the other day. I really liked it. It was different. I didn't even know it was Paul McCartney. But I love the booklet even more. And more than that, I love that Paul McCartney actually painted all of this. And it inspired me to go paint. I haven't painted in awhile.

CURTIS IS BACK!

My dear MacBook Pro 17" laptop (named Curtis by Rico) that went into a sudden and unexpected coma last week, has finally woken up and has been discharged from Simply Mac. He is doing well.

Also, I'm reading my Business Practices assignment right now and this made me laugh:

"You know it's art when you reach for your wallet." -Eric's client

So true.

I HEART FFFFOUND!


If you haven't noticed already, in preparation for Valentine's Day, I'm posting about things that I love. (Not that I don't usually do that....)

But check out the above. If you ever had that problem growing up of getting your lunch stolen, it may be too late to go back in time and use this sweet lunch bag, but at lease you can help out your future kids.
