Crazy Dreams

Tannah informed me it was time to write a new blog. The truth of the matter is I haven't been writing not only because I am busy but because I don't have anything but narrative on my life to tell you. I need to get back to the pondering about life or the photo posts I've done before. Maybe in a few weeks after finals I can delve back into that.

But I can tell you this....I don't watch or read the news enough. I know I've posted about this before but it's sad that somewhere along the way that never became part of a daily routine. It's always been difficult for me to sit and watch the news because either it's fluff or devastating. The murder stories are too much for me to handle. So somewhere along the way I got the NYTimes sent to my email every morning......on a good day I read the headings and the short description telling my what to look forward to if I choose to click the link. Needless to say, I rarely click the link.

Ok back to reality. Work to get done today.
Maybe tomorrow I'll click those links.

This was the quickest weekend I think I've had since I used to play soccer 6 days a week. Which I miss dreadfully by the way. It seems like just yesterday I was in photo class making an enormous print of a cornfield picture I took. But nope that was Thursday. I like being busy and having things to do but I have to remember to enjoy this while it lasts. Although today was just slower than ever I got things done but it's been a struggle to stay entertained. I assume the next few weeks are going to be very hectic though so I might as well enjoy the down time. It's only 7 and I've still got my eye on an apple blossom in the freezer...mmm mmm. Love um.

I absolutely love my job. The atmosphere is incredibly my style. Katie is so relaxed and we have such similar ways about us and out looks on life. It's incredible when you click with people like that. I haven't found a person on the east coast that I've connected with in this way yet. With maybe the exception of my friend Liana in printmaking who I'm most likely going to ROME! with next Fall if everything works out as planed. Anyways it makes me miss the west coast though. But I love so many things about it here too. I can't believe I only have one full week of school then thanksgiving week then a couple more weeks of classes and then a week of finals. It's truly mind boggling. I'm looking forward to the holidays but I can't even devote a moments thought to early xmas shopping because it's all about getting my school work done now and enjoying my time with friends I only have a few months left with.

We did our best.

Last night was Halloween and all the cool kids got to dress up and head off to the bar.

Tannah and I did our best to have fun....after they left, since we just moped while they were here getting ready.....

Since I'm a baby when it comes to scary things we found Zodiac on PPV and had a grand old time. It was intense and long so we were easily distracted from the fun all of our roommates and friends were having at the bar. Then I slept....and had dreams about people chasing me and killers on the loose. I guess my subconscious was feeling the holiday spirit.

It's amazing how quickly the stores push Christmas on you. Steph and I went to the dollar store yesterday to see is she could find some antennas for her costume and the Halloween section was gone and it was taken over by red and green. It's nuts! No wonder by the time Christmas actually rolls around everyone's sick of it. I'm gonna do my best to ignore it until December when I will bust out the traditional Mariah Carey Christmas and Nsync Christmas as well....I can't resist it's too fun. Oh yeah and maybe a little Celine Dion for old times sake. Oh how I love to just sit with a cup of hot chocolate and belt out the sounds of the season... :)

Today I get to work in 2 different art mediums, yay. Printmaking and photography. Should be interesting. Tomorrow I finally start work and I'm super excited. Everything is looking up, but I probably shouldn't speak too soon because well we all know what happens when you do.

A lovely Halloween weekend to all.
