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 (22 sep 2011)

  • Saw Jeremy for the first time since spring and did an ink-wash of him. (The man has lost weight!)
  • Went on a field trip with my science class to look at/smell/touch cadavers.
  • Stuck my ad team’s semi-comps onto foam core boards for presentation; was derided as a kiss-up.
  • Spent a good hour and a half during a lull in my ad class taking an exhaustive “Which Hogwarts house are you?” quiz, but still can’t decide whether I’m Ravenclaw or Slytherin.
  • Went to a stellar concert and still managed to get my homework done.
  • Painted a watercolor self-portrait in illustration class and felt ashamed for having cheapo paper.
  • Shot an entire roll of film in the span of three hours, and recorded boring details about each shot.
  • Processed the negatives and discovered that they actually look pretty good.
  • Took my first science test and seemed to do pretty well on it.
