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."

Have I Told You I’m a Silver Lining Type of Girl?

December 15, 2005

Today, in a word, was shitty. I know I’m probably shocking a lot of people by using some other word besides icky or blah, but sometimes a girl needs to resort to this type of language. Mind you, when I say my day was shitty, it’s only relative to the type of day I normally have. I know it wasn’t shitty in the grand scheme of things.

I had two art history finals today. I think shitty pretty much sums up how well I did. For some reason, I was unable to think or write clearly during my exams. I prepared for my exams just like I normally do. And normally, I get A’s. But when it came time to write, I blanked. It didn’t help that three out of seven slides in my 20th c. art history class were from the one lecture I missed this semester. I’d call those odds shitty. It also didn’t help that I’ve been feeling pretty shitty since I woke up this morning. I’m sorta weak and tired with no appetite.

But the silver lining? I’m done! Well, not done done. I have to pick up my drawing assignments next week. And on Monday in my ceramics class we’re having a critique followed by my professor hosting a luncheon at her house. So, the shitty part of school is over.

My drive home was kinda shitty too. We got several inches of snow again today. It’s that heavy wet snow that sticks to everything and makes the roads… Dare I say? Shitty. If you know snow, you know what I mean.

The silver lining? There’s no wind, so the thick heavy stuff is clinging to all the branches of all the trees and it’s soooo beautiful. It’s great packing snow too. A little too wet for my liking, but it didn’t stop the kids in the neighborhood from building snowmen. I even saw my neighbor—who has no children—adding a snowman to his front lawn like it was part of the holiday decorations. How cool is that?

I know my shitty day pales in comparison to the recent wave of crime plaguing my university’s campus. It also pales in comparison tto the shittiness of the new King Kong movie. So maybe ‘m just looking for an excuse to say shitty today.

Shitty. Hehe.

    Oh no, you didn’t like ‘King Kong’? I’m really looking forward to seeing it. I’ve followed the entire production diary at kongisking.net, and I hope it lives up to my expectations. Perhaps it just wasn’t your sort of thing? I’ve got a feeling it will be mine though.

    Oh, and since I haven’t commented for so long I feel the need to say I have still been reading. I’ve been ‘blurking’ on a lot of blogs lately, but I still visit regularly. (I came across the term for lurking without commenting on a blog on wardomatic.blogspot.com, and now try to use it as often as possible!)

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.
