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 (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.
