What I did this week (23 feb 2012)
- Tried drawing with my oil-based pencil and got reprimanded for it being too dull. Then Boryana sharpened it with a knife and it got really sharp.
- Packed king cake in my lunchbag all week, which was completely fantastic.
- Had a rough time meeting with my team because I felt so sick and kept wanting to fall asleep and die. John held things together very admirably.
- Gladly accepted more DayQuil from Theresa, who makes a shockingly gracious drug dealer.
- Took a history of fashion quiz. I have no clue how well I did! Time will tell.
- Skipped wednesday’s friendship lunch because I felt so sick.
- Got chocolate from Bob.
- Raided the illustration department’s prop closet and took some great pictures of my friends.
- Began feeling better on thursday and made up for lost time by talking with lots of my friends and doing a lot of stuff. Also: eating more king cake.
- Fought with Amanda a lot, partially because I was sick and also partially because we’re both jerks. Hopefully things will be better next week.
- Entered the home stretch for my current team project. I am preparing for a long, painful weekend of finishing this thing.
“and hold on, boy,
whatever you do,
to the hope that’s
taken ahold of you”
—Newly-written song lyrics by Andrew Peterson. It’s little hints of Reformed theology like this in his music that make it so beautiful and compelling.

All Hail West Texas: ten years ago, today.
Matisse.
We’ve had a copy of this in the living room for my entire life. The colors look better here than they do in my house, though. A beautiful creation.

What I did this week (16 feb 2012)
- Drew a model I’ve never seen before with an oil-based pencil and produced a drawing I am exceptionally happy with.
- Got to leave the worst class of the week early because I was sick. Thanks, teach.
- Tried to get team stuff done while one of my teammates is on a cruise in the Caribbean and not able to answer email or do any work. We are two weeks away from finals and I am stressing the heck out.
- Was sick all week. Blew my nose on cheap CCAD toilet paper all week, which only made things worse.
- Celebrated Valentine’s Day by eating way too many of Colleen’s candy hearts in my team class and getting a swollen tongue. I am not sorry for eating the candy, because it was delicious and holiday-appropriate.
- Got some DayQuil from Theresa, who is a good friend to me.
- Turned in the final for my illustration project, which was mounted using the cheapskate mounting method. I guess you could say I haven’t yet learned my lesson.
- Discovered that the frivolous parking ticket fee had been revoked. I am still grumpy that the whole incident ever occurred.
- Spilled a plate of tomato sauce all over my lap at lunch and went around all wednesday afternoon smelling like spaghetti.
- Got a packet of Emergen-C from Jason and used it on the spot. I didn’t have a water bottle, so I had to put the powder into a 1oz disposable mouthwash cup from Mr. Mahan’s office. And I had to stir it with my knitting needle. Despite this, I was able to drink it and strengthen my immune system!
- Did not plan ahead for Burleigh’s final project and had to print, cut, and assemble the thing thursday morning by the printers in Kinney.
- Talked about Flannery O’Connor in my American lit class! Enough said!
- Had another great knit-n-crit with Burleigh, going over our finals! Used the cheapskate mounting method for a second time this week.
- Almost finished a whole sock.
