peace pretzels
Last night was such a "college" night.

After a free dinner and drinks at Ring of Fire (not to mention inheriting a full sized entertainment center from Justin's mom), I managed to space my homework completely for the lure of the internet and forget that South Park's 100th episode was showing. I gave my homework the finger and we went over to Sara and Brads anyway where 20 people were all smooshed into their living room (and somehow managed to, for ONCE, abstain from ranting lividly about something during the show). I planned to go home right afterwards and start my work but actually overcame my dehabilitating "goody-two-shoes-ness" and went with about 15 other people to the campus Prince Pucklers for ice cream. When all of us arrived within two minutes of each other and about 20 minutes before they closed and proceeded to yell "rabble! rabble rabble rabble!!" the ice cream guy just shook his head and muttered under his breath, "What the hell? I don't fucking believe this..." Needless to say, I think they did good business that night. We pwned that place. After ice cream we loitered on the street until Sara, Rachel and I, lured by the large lights on in the bakery nextdoor, went to investigate the "peace pretzels" (large loaves of bread fashioned into peace signs) in the window and discovered that the baker was still working. After dive bombing the glass with our boobies and failing to get his attention by hollering and leaping about, Rachel had to resort to knocking on the glass for his attention. Like the giddy schoolgirls we are, we ran away gleeful and giggling into the night.

So I didn't get to bed until way too damn late and have started to get a little behind on my work. Fudge it. It's worth if if I can still manage to enjoy my classes and have fun with friends anyway. I'm too much a friggin perfectionist. That, and I needed to celebrate my $500 scholarship award somehow!

This morning I turned in my three "photogram" prints in my PhotoJ class. As I mentioned, I uploaded them and you can view the linked images below. I'm off to Tai chi!

The third and final mounted print in small and large.

The first print, a two-sided scan of flowers.

The second print, tissue and ribbon.

A print I made with sea glass but didn't turn in. Didn't particularly like the way it came out.

As you can see, I'm lacking talent (though I do like the final mounted print) but full of ambition!
