about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

dumbass quote

  • "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education like, such as South Africa, and, the Iraq, everywhere like such as. And I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., or should help South Africa, and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children."

Deadlines, Deadlines!

January 22, 2005

My university’s art department is doing a Study Abroad program in May. They’re going to Paris. Paris! I attended a meeting about it last week and found out the deposit for the trip, along with the application and two letters of recommendation, are due at the end of January. That’s fine and dandy, but I won’t be able to secure funds for the trip in less than two weeks, not to mention getting those letters of recommendation. The trip costs $4000 plus expenses and does not include the cost of tuition. It’s so much money, but oh, it’s art in Paris!

I talked to financial aid about getting an advance on my student loans for next fall, but much to my dismay, I’ve reached my limit for student loans. Not only is this bad news for my study abroad trip (which is no longer my study abroad trip, seeing as how I won’t be going), but it’s bad news for my next semester. Consequently, I’ve renewed my substitute permit and will be returning to work soon.

I also found out about the art department’s scholarship this week. They haven’t had many submissions, and are encouraging all art students to apply. Again, that’s fine and dandy, but they’re not really giving us much time. We have to submit an application, one letter of recommendation, an essay, and THREE works of art. Large artwork or 3D artwork must be submitted in the form of slides. The deadline for the scholarship? January 28. Guess who doesn’t have slides of her artwork. For you dense people, that would be me. I don’t even know how to get slides of my artwork at this point, let alone find a way to get them in less than a week. That scholarship would have come in handy since I have no student loan money available now.

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
