Present Joys

“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

What I did this week (15 mar 2012)

  • Started a new team project with a new team, comprising people I enjoy and respect. I’m excited.
  • Listened to M-Tabs explain the entire plot of Battlestar Galactica to our team class. This only very loosely related to our team project, but it was charming and entertaining.
  • Went shopping with Evan—a topic which deserves a post all to itself. We drove all over town to a bunch of vintage clothing and antique stores, trying to find specific items and taking a bunch of pictures. This was in lieu of a normal History of fashion class, and it was much more fun. Also, this was the first time I had ever traveled in a Hummer.
  • Wore a polo shirt for the first time this year. Spring’s a-coming.
  • Took hilarious reference photos for a new illustration project inspired by pulp fiction book covers.
  • Enjoyed a long crit, during which Mr. Mahan suggested that two girls should have a jello wrestling contest to determine the winner of a poster with zombies harassing a geisha.
  • Got Polish food with Jason for his birthday.
  • Went back to Illustration and finished the day even though it was 76°F outside.
  • Finished the week with a knit-n-crit which was surprisingly robust, considering everyone is punchy and slap-happy and ready for some time off.
  • Began spring break!
