Maybe I found it the night I put my camera in the fridge around 5 AM and rescued it a few minutes later.
I've been encouraged by friends to get artistic again... and this time, I feel like I finally found it. I feel like I value my art better, now.
Perhaps the environment is finally what I needed.
I've thought a lot about my late photo teacher. Back when I was a freshman, she recommended I look into Mills College - "someday," she told me. Three months into freshman year and she knew.
After I'd settled down after moving in, I turned on my laptop to listen to music. "I'll Be Seeing You" came on, a song I used in a little presentation about Esther Bubley that year. The way everything was at that exact moment, I knew that I ended up in the right place.

Do you hear that? That's the sound of EXCITEMENT! I get to have WATER for dessert now! I get to have WATER FOR BREAKFAST! Isn't that AWESOME? And because I haven't had any food and can't drink milk (for now) I can't even take a painkiller for my teeth!

Ah well. At least I can stage my interpretation of a Martin Margiela dress well with the bandage. I'm going to wait on the "Mad Men" one... I don't think it'd go so well with a bandage. I hope they have fun colors this time around. Last time I went they messed up both of my elbows. Driving home without bending them was fun.

From a senior internship project that turned out better than expected

(FWOOOOSH)
and possibly doodles

influenced.

by.

Nothing, really, actually.



Ok, so I did make two dresses as part of my senior internship. I finished one a week early and speed-made another one. The second one had no instructions, no allowances, nothing. Oh yeah, and it was in french too. But I speak french, so that wasn't a problem. Altering the dang thing was.

I also ended up doodling how I felt after I burped half-chewed tapicoa from my boba tea. Don't drink and drive, kids!

My wisdom teeth are giving me trouble... hence the status. I had two ovarian cysts rupture - one in Sept 08 (my birthday weekend) and one in February 09. Interesting times, that. I got ahold of my camera after getting out of the hospital pumped full of antibiotics and painkillers and just before falling asleep, I took a bunch of pictures.

I don't remember taking them. At all.

To anyone who's faved and commented in the uh... year plus absence, thanks a bunch. I had something like 900 new pieces of art and 200 new messages and that was a little... overwhelming, to say the least. Needless to say I didn't look. Sorry guys :<.

A lot has changed. I've gotten some new piercings, changed up my hair a bit and back again, gotten better at what I do, and picked up sewing again.

I will totally be better at this. I swear.

Somehow, I got the idea in my crazy little head that I'm going to sew a formal dress for myself. It'll be either next winter formal or next prom. Why? Because I can. And because I'm a li'l cyberpunk hobag. I'm wearing the circuitry of my old busted ass jump drive around my neck now.

I have the opportunity to sell photos because Eastern Europe and shoes (so much <3) are eating my money. Life is pretty good. Expect to see some new old stuff... eventually.

Good news: 80 of the 170 made it, and I was able to take 293 more a couple days later.
