| Sometimes I don't know why I do the things I do. I can't offer you explanations, just that if I feel so inclined, I shall do them.
New York, you have been amazing. You have changed me in ways that I cannot see yet. I have met amazing people that have both humbled and made me more confident. Some days, I feel confident that I will survive in this art world. Other days, not so much. I just know that I will grow as an artist, as a person. I am glad I took this chance to do what I want to do, and not what other people want me to do. I am happy that I have pursued my passions and let them bubble up and expand.
And to you guys, here's my schedule for next semester. I made it myself in the iCal because I don't have one of those nifty things you guys have from your school. lol.

| Crepe parties are fun. Especially the homemade kind.
I went over to the New Residence (freshman dorms, suites only.) and we made crepes. I helped cook for about 16-17 kids. Most kids left at around 10-11, because they have classes on Fridays. I left at around 2 by myself, because I had a really long day.
We're recreating masterpieces so we have to buy huge posters. Recreating them in a way that we transcend them. I didn't see a poster I liked at the Metropolitan, so we went to the Whitney, the Frick, the Asia Society & Museum, the Guggenheim, and even the MoMa. We also we went to the Rockefeller Center to the Met Store, but they didn't have any posters. :( I bought one from the MoMa, though. >_<;; soooo tiring.
I have a pile of homework to do, but I'm still watching Avatar. Last season, son! :]
I have two finals, but I haven't gotten around to studying for them. UGH.

| 1. Just because it's 35-40 degrees outside on average, it doesnt stop me from cranking up the heat, having to turn on the a/c so I don't die, and wearing shorts and a tank top.
2. I have two weeks left of this semester. It's kind of hard to think about, because I still have a lot of final projects to finish for my classes.
3. I have a ten page Art History paper to do. I got one sentence typed out before I proceeded to fall asleep on Ariel's bed. Then she rick-rolled me with my mac. Fail.
4. It was 1:30 when I woke up, and while we were looking for Melody, we decided we were hungry, and had a full course meal at a 24 hour French restaurant when we were craving Chinese food. We left at 3:40.
5. It's snowed twice here. Kind of slush, but still, all the same. It didn't stick.
6. I'm terribly homesick.
7. I'm no longer a good child. I skip classes. And then I feel bad because I'm paying for them.
8. I'm kind of a creeper. :]  Jennifer and I. I creep on her. I go to her apartment without her knowing.   Obamafy! Melody, Danielle, Ariel and I. 9. Merry Christmas?  My classmate Jenny and her boyfriend Hiro, me, Ariel | | |
| Ariel and I have concluded that if I were a boy, I would be a great boyfriend. I'm attentive and I remember the little things that people tell me. *whips out cheesey smile and a thumbs up sign*
Too bad I'm not attracted to girls, contrary to what other people think *coughheathersiegelcough*
I watched the first season of Avatar. Bahaha I'm such a nerd. You guys should watch it if you haven't already. :] It's okay to be a nerd, because we all are inside. Just some more than others.
And you guys should visit me. :] Bring warm clothes, because it snowed yesterday. Okay, it slushed yesterday. haha. And i almost froze my fingers off.
I miss laura-smirking at people. Who's got a new girlfriend/boyfriend that I can smirk at?
Sorry for the random post. I woke up early and I'm kind of procrastinating on homework.

| Life hates me. Or loves me dearly. I can't decide which.
I have a ten page art history paper due next week that I haven't started on. I didn't even bother trying to pay attention in Art History yesterday. I just slept. So did the guy next to me. It was funny. Sort of. I felt so dead yesterday, because I stayed up all night drawing. My triptych's due the 22nd. and I've barely finished one.
..
Okay, technically I only stayed up 'til 5 drawing, but it was 5 already and there was no point in sleeping 3 hours to wake up for class. So I stayed up with Ariel in the solarium.
Compared to other blocks in our school, I think our block is unnaturally close to each other. Our school has foundation year split into blocks, and the people in those blocks have all the same classes with each other, all year. Unless you opt out of the class, or for some reason or another you just have another class. During lunch you can leave, but we also have a restaurant at the basement. There aren't a lot of tables, but our class usually crowds and sits together at two or three tables.
My friends tell me they have people who hate each other in their blocks, or they just don't like them. I'm really glad our block likes each other, and we have no problem with each other. :]
During Thanksgiving, I went to my cousin's apartment. Carmen came for Thanksgiving. We went to dinner at my cousin's boyfriend's brother's place. lol. Then we went shopping in Upstate New York. There, I saw more Asians (namely Chinese and Korean) than I want to for the rest of my life. Just saying. Then I went back to my dorm on that Friday and hung out with Ariel, since Melody went home for the weekend. We had sushi, and went window shopping on 5th Ave. My sister and her boyfriend Victor J came to my dorm, and I snuck them in. Victor left after a while, and then my sister slept over in my room. The next day we went shopping a little, and went to St. Mark's. That Saturday we went to my aunt's place and had shabu shabu. SO DELICIOUS. (hot pot).
On Wednesday Ariel and I went to the Rockefeller Center to see the tree lighting. My cousin's roommate's a cop and was going to work that night, so she could let us in to a good spot to see. She wasn't working, but called up her friends to help us out. At one point we were at the ice skating rink, but they didn't let us stay there because the mayor was going to be there later. We were still close, though-- the place we ended up at. It was really pretty. :D
I haven't seen any movies here yet, but I will. :] (Well, technically I saw The September Issue, but that was free) Our school has a film library, so we end up watching movies in our rooms than at the theater. Also, we have a SVA Film Theater (thank you, film majors) so there are always free screenings for movies before they're out, and Q&A sessions with the screen writers/filmmakers. Pretty spiffy stuff.
I can't believe that Christmas is close and the semester's almost over. I'm ready to go home and sleep everything off. That will be great. :D
