hey it's the WEEKEND!

Ok, so let me first talk about the office. LOVED IT. Pure copier + toner + stapler love. I did not like some things in the office and my office experience. I'll list them

1). Not in the Champ's living room crowded around my bestest friends.
2). JAM proposal. What was up with that... nuh uh, not cool.
3). did I mention that I wasn't with avid office fans??

Ok, so i guess it was only two things that I didn't like. But those two things were crucial. I don't understand why the writers thought that was "cute." If I may quote Michael Gary Scott "It was LAME." Yeah, the rain was great, but at a gas station?? Pammy deserves better than that, and don't call her Pammy!

Ok so early on Thursday I had no english class (loved that), and then drawing. I really hate all the kids in my drawing class except about 3 kids. But i'm only really friends with one person. Later on my thursday evening.... what did I do?? Oh i remember, after the 14 people that were in my room for the office vacated we hit the sack.

FRIDAY-
Majors Fair. Majors fair is where every single major at SCAD has a booth set up and they tell you how GREAT that major is. Everyone had to go to get their passport stamped for their FYE class. So i got mine stamped, and was almost going to leave, but I was like ' I should just look around." Luckily the jewelry table was right near the door. I picked up the curriculum paper and talked to the jewelry people, told them I am A). A worker, B). A good worker and C). a hard worker. No, just kidding. I didn't want to seem to merciless. But I did tell them I was very convinced on Jewelry being my major. Other people in my group said that going to the majors fair made them more unsure of what they wanted to do.

Later on Friday-
Went to the Mexican Buffet. I don't like Mexican food, but I tried the Pico, Guacamole, and something called a tequito. Anyway, it was all good. I still wouldn't say i like Mexican food, and I know be me saying that I might lose some friendships. But I'm sorry, I just dont like tacos and stuff. I don't know.. Sue me!
- Then me and my roomie went to the Mall. Got my fav headphones... YES, skullcandy bihs! I love those things, they are made from angels i think.

Later Later on Friday- went to a Jazz Festival. It reminded me of my old Jazz band days when i would play the sax and piano for my middle school jazz band. Oh, at this concert there was a lot of smoke from ciggs, cigars, and other smokeable products. I was thinking.. I wonder if any people with nose rings have any cloves, and if they could pass me one and I could smoke some of it..... I didn't cross any pathes with any people with nose rings. :(
Later on that night we went to this coffee house and I had a wonderful Bubble milk tea. It reminded me of the old escapades Grack and I would take to Shanghai Express.

After the Jazz fest- we walked back to my room and watched a movie.

-Early Saturday-
Went to get pizza for lunch.
Came back, watched Royal Tenenbaums.
Lolo called me while I was trying to do my drawing homework.
I'm sorry that your besties are gone. Lolo as Outback steakhouse might say "get out there." Meaning, go call the IB girls. Or go get drunk and tell someone your pregnant.
Later on I think i'll be going to the mall.. and YES i'll be going to the Gap. I think I've found true love.

A really GREAT day

Today has been one of my best days here at SCAD so far. Well I guess it's been a combination of yesterday, today.. and if i can foretell the future- I think it'll be the best couple of days in awhile.

Yesterday I had English (least favorite class), and we watched this movie Full Metal Jacket. Let me just say, it was a very good movie. I'd never seen it before, so with fresh eyes it was a good movie for talking about Vietnam and being in combat in general. There are some gory scenes, and it is not a happy story by any means. It is war afterall. So after that I went to get sushi with Geary. We then took a wittle hour long break and than went right on to our drawing class (2nd favorite). Nothing really good happened in that class. For me, taking that class is when I am again reminded how terrible I am at drawing.

TODAY- Today i had to wake up really early.... 7:30 because of our First Year Experience class. And may I talk about how great the weather is here? It is absolutely splendid! It reminds me of those fall days when Grace and I would be driving home from school with the windows down and it would be windy and crisp, sunny, and cool. But besides waking up early, it was a good day, i'll continue.. I then remembered I had some mail coming my way. So i walked down to the basement of my building and opened my mailbox and nothing was there. The mailguy was still processing mail and stuffing it in boxes so I thought I would wait around. Right as I was walking around Julie called me, and I was SO excited to hear from her. 5 minutes later, I checked my box and TWO pieces of mail had come. Complements of Angel and Jewbaby.
Anyway moving on....
In my favorite class (2D design) I, along with my other classmates discovered that my art piece series was up on the wall in the hallway!!!!!!!! Like, mine was chosen out of 15 other kids in my class!!!

- FUTURE TOMORROW -
No english class tomorrow, on account of my teacher being in Amsterdam.
Drawing, and then OFFICE!!!! AHHHH!!!!!!

I'll miss the office night days..

Collegiate Life

I'm finally here at SCAD, and I'm so glad that I'm back at art school. I think everyone knew how ready I was to finally get back in the groove of school and being social again.

I just saw and ate with my friend from RISD. It was really great talking about old RISD people and how much we miss them and the RISD food. And PLEASE don't think that I'm picky about food, and judgmental, but the food here at SCAD is lacking compared to the food at RISD. And that makes me a tiny bit sad, but it's fine. I'll learn to live.


Today they had a poster sale and had ALL these posters of movies and art and just all this stuff. I came home with a poster of the office, and the movie Little Miss Sunshine. I wanted a scenic view of London, but all they had was Paris and New York. But there really isn't a scenic view of London. Unless it is the London Eye mixed with Big Ben and the Thames River and perhaps the Gherkin that is now a new skyscraper.

Oh another thing, my next door neighbors! They are terrible, they play their blaring bass fueled rap music from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 a.m. We've told them to turn it down a couple of times. One time my roommate caught one of them with their hands "tied". Yes, that room has a LOT of traffic from the females. They have a whiteboard and they have their nicknames written on it. Names as follows: Easy (white guy), Bam Bam (aka Long Island Ice tea- also Caucasian), and J-Bird (the black guy). Long Island and I have a drawing class together and he is SUCH an idiot. He is rude to the teacher and came in VERY late the first day. He was wearing some shorts and a black wifebeater that complements his Rest In Peace Tattoo... aka... HOT.


Update from the feather bed. I've slept really great while I've been here- thanks to the feather bed. Although it slips off because my bed is so high and I have to use a stepping stool to get on it. Therefore thanks to ductape, I taped the feather bed to my mattress so reduce the slipage.

For the tea drinkers, I've had tea almost everyday. I'm so glad I brought it! On the way up my mom and I stopped at an outlet mall and I bought a teapot and teabags. I reminds me of the old tea party days at Khaki's house.

Bye tiggs,

and so sorry I've been distant, college is hard to adjust to.

New iTunes

So i updated my itunes today, i knew they came out with all new iPods yesterday... kind of odd to come out with stuff on tuesday, but they have New Music Tuesday, so I guess it comes in correlation to that. Anyway, I love the new Genius Playlist thing. I know at the Apple store they have a genius bar, and I love going to the Apple store to get my iPod fixed. Although having a broken iPod is a grim occasion, I get to go to the Apple store and have it looked at by a REAL genius so that is a treat.

But you should really check out the Genius Sidebar. It is a really neat feature. The only draw back is that it took forever to load my music, but I guess that is partly my fault for having a lot of music?? I only have about 6 gbs, and I don't think that is a lot. I don't have 13 gigs like someone I know, but still it took a long time.

Bye players.

A purchase!

Well..... I went to go visit the old clan back at HAC and it was very refreshing.... Lolo greeted me with great delight (no surprise there), Bryce shook my hand, and I got to hear ALL about the love life of Matty O and his number one girl... although we all know he still likes Sabrina (boink).

So i've been a little reminiscent lately, thinking about the past 4 years. I remember in 9th grade I used to HATE highschool. Well not hate, but really didn't like it. It just took some years to get aquainted with the school and with the people and to find my niche. But thinking back, I had a really great time. This year by far will ALWAYS be my favorite. I finally was on top in piano (socially, not literally the best player- we all know that), I became better friends with the bots, Julie, lolo, grace, it was really great. And at the moment I feel like this will be the greatest thing that will happen to me... highschool will be the best... and then I got to thinking... no it won't, you'll be meeting new people (but will NOT forgot the old friends), and seeing new things. It just feels like SCAD will never come!!!!

I've been paitently waiting since MAY for my dream school to finally be in front of me. Officialy, I have 5 days till classes start and I can't wait. I can't wait to get back into routine, back with friends (RISD peeps), back to learning! I was talking about my AP psych class today, and sadly, that was the one thing that I miss. Not the class, and CLEARLY not the teacher. It was the daily routine of what was expected, and I loved that. I don't know what I just talked about that, but whatever.

Ok! I bought a little something for my dorm room bed. When I went to orientation over the summer I noticed that the beds were a bit on the thin side (Please don't think I'm princess and the pea OR high maintence) So I got to thinking... FEATHER BED! I've always wanted one, and now is an opportunity to get one. So I got on Amazon (loves it) and I found one for a steal of a deal. And no, the little boy does not come with it!

I sent Angel her last letter from FL today, and I PROMISE I will get my address and I would LOVE all letters that I recieve.. although no hate mail, my name isn't Hillary Rodem Clinton....

But I'll get you my address asap
