La Mia Vita
A lovely young women I follow here on Tumblr posted her “life in list form.” I love lists to an unreal degree, and I like talking about my interests and what I do, so I thought I’d give it a go. Therefore, my life includes:
Making masks, collecting masks, looking at masks, thinking about masks, performing with masks
Owning an absurd amount of art supplies
Thrift store...

Busy(ish) Sunday
My weekend seems extra-long, since I don’t have classes on Friday. But then again, a lot of time was sucked up by taking the bus to/from work in Northampton.
So today seems to be the day to get things done. I bought most of my art supplies for my drawing class, and then I did grocery shopping. Now…well, I feel as though I should do more homework. I have to start making that...

Not Having a Roommate
It’s great. Because then, I can do things like sleep naked whenever I want to.

Probably Not Getting into Sculpture
Yeah. I guess I’m not overly surprised, but I am a little disappointed. Oh well. I’m going to have to look into doing an independent study. Since I still have to do something for my Multicultural Perspectives Requirement (no, study abroad in Italy doesn’t count - I know how stupid it is), I was thinking of doing some sort of…cross-cultural mask-making...

The End of Jury Duty/The Beginning of Classes
I didn’t post yesterday, in favor of working on a present for someone special. I had jury duty, obviously, and turns out I got picked as an alternate, so I didn’t have to deliberate. Still, I think it was a good experience. Glad it’s over with, though.
Classes started today. There’s no chance of me getting into Teaching Art to Children, and that’s all right. ...

My younger sister is watching ABC family. The programming is targeted at young people; I’d take a wild guess and say pre-teen and teenage girls. Some shows touch on serious subjects, some are just funny and for fun, some are just plain terrible. I’m minding my own business, playing SuDoku and…
Damn straight, Amanda.

manda-leigh:
My parents told me that, since I was little, I have consistently been stubborn and a perfectionist. Yes, I was a determined little thing. If I drew something and it wasn’t what I deemed to be perfect, I’d angrily crumple up the paper, throw it to the ground, and start all over again. I must’ve…

So, I Guess I'm a Juror.
That’s right. Had jury duty today - the first time I had to actually go in. And I was picked for the jury. Oh, joy.
I’m kind of mysteriously exhausted right now, so I won’t say much about the case. Hopefully, it will be over with tomorrow, so that I don’t have to worry about classes, which start on Wednesday.
I feel kind of inexplicably moody right now - or...

Saturday Again.
Woke up a lot later today than usual - 10:00. Granted, I went to bed at almost 1am, which is unusual for me. Even now, it’s quarter after midnight. What on earth? I’m usually in bed by 11.
Anyway. I woke up with a weird rash on my arms and chest. It kind of settled down over the course of the day, but it’s back now. I just took some Benadryl (or the CVS equivalent),...

Futurism Can Be Fun!
Just thought I’d give ya’ll a glimpse of what I looked like yesterday. I got all dolled up for our Futurist serata.
I hadn’t done something like this in FAR too long (unless Halloween counts…but still, that was a long time ago!).
Unfortunately, I don’t have a really good photo of the whole outfit. I was wearing red and black checkered pants under that...
