Hi Mom. I'm really not putting off homework, considering I have all weekend to do it - and I WILL start tonight, but I would rather be writing this post than doing it so...here I am. Today started 'early' (7:15) today with Figure Drawing which was a work out. The entire class we did sets of 10 two minute poses, a bunch of three minute poses and then what seemed like forever of 30 second poses. I was exhausted after, but I loved it. Spent lunch in the cafe in the Academic Center, and then read my book until my first Storytelling class, which I think will be kind of awesome. There will be lots of writing involved, but it's the best kind of writing: creative/fiction. The fact that I will not be writing about grammar and research essays, like I would have had I not dropped Writer's Studio, makes me very happy. My teacher is an interesting character for sure. He's relatively normal, as art teachers go, and he makes lots and lots of movie references, it's re
Hi Mom. I may have mentioned last month - to you and Jason mostly - that I sent in an application to volunteer at the Humane Society of Sarasota County. It had been something I'd been thinking about doing since coming to Ringling, mainly because of the lack of animal socialization I receive living in a dorm on a college campus. When I started baby-talking to the local squirrels before winter break, I knew something needed to change. Then, Katy passed away. It's easy to not think about it, especially when I'm so far away and in a place I would never associate Katy with. Katy wasn't a part of my Ringling experience. She was the thing I got to see when I flew home for holidays/breaks. She wasn't here she was there...now she's...not. But now that she's gone I'd do anything to make it so she was. So, during my first week back from Winter Break, in the middle of a very dark, lonely, let's-think-of-every-awful-thing-that's-ever-happened kind of ni
Hi Mom. Had some mailing issues recently. Nothing too terrible that digging a little further couldn't solve. A few weeks ago I used the amazon gift cards I received to buy a few things. 2/4 had arrived while 3/4 should have. I got my small portfolio to hold some class work, and my new Mickey lanyard. My mandala tapestry should have gotten here on Monday (which my tracking thing said it DID ITS SOMEWHERE) but when I asked the mailing office if they had it they looked it up and said they didn't. Um okay? Even though it is tracked by scans and the scan SAID it was left at the front desk. They suggested I wait a few days cause it might mean that its in Sarasota but not at Ringling. EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS ITS DELIVERED I LITERALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THEIR LOGIC. So I waited. Till today (Friday). What motivated me was my lovely parents' care package arrived. AT LEAST THAT GOT HERE. So when I picked that up I asked the girl at the desk about the package. She looked up my trac
