I am the viking cook. I just thought someone might enjoy this delicacy, I know I did

What do you think. I can't be all the things I'm supposed to be right now, so I have to choose. I can't be the perfect student and the perfect friend. Neither can I pursue a personal life as well as submerge myself completely in personal statement (instead of choosing one or the other I go back and forth and end up just twitching a lot). I know I can do the things I need to more quickly than I am and maybe even stay on top of everything but I'm struggling. Someone somewhere along hte line is going to suffer, probably my grade which unfortunately at this stage of the game means my portfolio and thus my life if I ever really go for the artist thing with all I've got. I'm ready to give it all I've got but then there are people, who I want to be there for.

Right now I'm sitting in the art studio, it's 11:42 PM and it's my lucky day, I am picking up a roving wireless network. I just got done working on a project that was sort of due already some time back there, I know I can do this thing though, if I can do anything, I can do the swamped artist thing.

This current project is going to be a fun one. I have constructed a life-size Apollo. Apollo and I are going to shoot some pictures in various suburban locations. The basic idea behind this springs from my vehement hatred of suburban living. Apollo will look really unfortunate standing there in front of Wal-Mart with the shopping cart, or going to McDonalds or participating in some other degrading activity having to do with commercialism or advertising.

Originally I was just going to make some drawings of this situation, but my professor was the one who suggested the life-size thing.

So the fact that I will have a giant naked greek god in my portfolio from now on, is something I can thank Maria for.

I think after Apollo and I have our fun, we will finish off our day by doing a little skateboarding.

and I've never been to Boston in the fall...wow, now I have! I've never been to Boston in the snow...that will change

This is Harper. Harper is awesome. I wish Harper would take me to the banquet..
This is my new tea set, I am under the impression that it is an antique. At least I got it from a lady's barn full of antiques and Maria thinks it's an antique. I'll just go with that.


A long history

The long awaited day is here...I now have access to the internet. And in my very own home..Internet all around! On me!

It has been a long time since I've written a well representative post and kind of a lot has happened lately in the center of the universe that is South Lancaster, MA- pop. more than I can count on one hand. So this calls for a frenzied grammerless account consisting mostly of runon sentences and fragments. And when Amanda is almost to the point of neorosis with the misplaced commas, just remember that someone somewhere just learned the difference between your and you're.

Several weeks ago we spent a few days in NY. Boston and NY were the main reasons I came to AUC. Birds of a feather flock together right? So NY is where the artists are. So Wayne and friend Kate and I went to some galleries. Apparently, according to Wayne, there are hundreds of galleries in the art district. We covered close to 20. While we were looking in one of them, someone showed their work and got in. Maybe that will be me in a few.

Ok, random picture time, in no particular order: the infamous egg installment, my precious piano innards, some other stuff, fall, friends, I love it here!
