Finallssssss




Pictures of the Day] Some of my unfinished perspective drawings for studio. I have the finished ones, just in pdf form (and blogger does not like pdfs). The finished ones are more impressive...

Mood] *sigh*

Weather] Pretty windy

Currently] In my room

Quote of the Day] "Are you going to come quietly, or do I have to use earplugs?"

So finals are crazy. I have gotten completely backlogged. I really hope that I will be able to get all my work done in time. Some things on my list.

Studio Final Review - done
Group Project for Historic Landscape Preservation (we're doing a detailed report of the Evanston Art Center @ Harley Clarke Estate) - near completion
10-Page Research Paper for Shakespeare Class - not even started
Blogs for Shakespeare Class - near completion (2 more to go!)
Group Project for Prairie Landscape (DePaul campus comparison to IIT) - halfway complete
Visual Training Revisions - not started

So there will be work to be done! But I think it'll be okay.

Back Home

Picture of the Day] Unfortunately none! My camera phone took photos and I do not have a plan that allows me to upload photos from my phone, so no cool Trans-Siberian Orchestra pictures for you! The lasers were mesmerizing though...

Mood] Ready

Weather] FREAKING COLD

Currently] In my cubicle

Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it."

Since my brother and sister had their birthdays this past week, I went home this weekend for a bit of festivities! I was rather excited because we took them out for dinner and went to a concert for the Trans-Siberian Orchestra! My brother enjoys composing music, so we figured he would enjoy something like that. It was at the Peoria Civic Center, an auditorium/Ice Skating Rink that I have not been to since I was very young for probably a Disney on Ice performance. I remember some of it vaguely, though mostly I just remember the glowing plastic Beauty and the Beast rose in a case that I got. Oh to be young! I think it might've even made noises and sang. Anyway, it was a blast! It was really nice to be back home.

We went out for a nice meal at Jonah's Seafood restaurant which is located on the river in Peoria. I had crab legs and took a hefty amount of both my brother and sister's desserts. Who can pass up carrot cake and chocolate cake? And geeze, they were HUGE. It was soooo delicious. I ate too much and felt sick after again, but HEY, it was tasty...The next day I made breakfast for everyone and we had a Chinese chocolate cake that my grandma bought. It was delicious and light with chocolate whipped cream as the frosting. Doesn't last as long, but definitely isn't as heavy.

Again all my posts talk about food 90% of the time...
