Today, I realized it's been a while. I haven't blogged in about a month. Not that I haven't had blog-worthy stuff going on, it's just hasn't been blog-appropriate... you know? Couple of the goings on:
the weather in Texas is fall-like. Every other day or so. This consistency of chill surprises most native Texans. And excites us. I broke out my tights today. :)
Speaking of tights. I had a substitute teacher when I was in 10th grade who was pretty old. He was a funny guy and we were talking about the prime of his youth: The Forties. He was telling us about the stockings they used to wear - the ones with the seams down the back. He thought those should come back in style. I also recently read Death of a Salesman. Hence stockings being on my mind. If you don't get it, go read the play. It'll be good for you.
I learned how to drape patterns yesterday. I also poked my finger with a needle. It hurt.
I'm exhausted. And ready to graduate.
I leave on Thursday night for Washington DC! I'm stoked!!! :)
Now, I must go work on a paper. Maybe I'll blog more soon... maybe...

Follies
Today is one of those awkward days that comes out of nowhere. I realized when I finally got up and left my house this morning that today was in fact move in day. There is really no worse two days at a college than move in day. It means that parents that don't know their way around campus are being guided by new students who have no idea where to go and all that equals mess:
[clueless parents + clueless student who is wound up sort of like a chihuahua on crack because, low and behold they are FINALLY LIVING ALONE (well, that's what they think)] x 1500 = chaos on campus for all who have any idea of the ease with which you are supposed to be able to navigate through the beloved campus we call home.
Part of me always wants to tell them to figure it out. The other part of me wants to help them, guide them, put them where they're supposed to be and let them settle in, tell them it will be ok and, no, college isn't as scary as you think it's going to be and the homework load is totally doable... if you aren't opposed to sleeping and showering at abnormal hours. But that's a different story. So, today, against the wishes of either of these parts, I slept, which was nice. Except that the people who are re-siding my apartment complex are, wait for it, STILL HERE. ALL THE DANG TIME. This causes me stress. I wish they would leave.
I then realized that I only have 5 days (and really only 4 days) left of my last summer in college. Sigh. But, as I realized this, I was driving with an ice cold cherry diet coke, the Kings of Leon on the radio, blue skies up above, and the thought of those last few sweet moments of summer. I think I'll buy strawberries to cling a little longer, although, the summer heat will stick around a little longer than any of us would really like.
I feel like maybe this is a little complain-y, but really it's just been a weird day. The next few days, if I'm lucky, will maybe get less weird, but really, I think life will just get crazier starting today.
love peace life

sick day
I'm sick today... being an adult and being sick is not as much fun as being a kid and being sick. I mean, it's not fun anyway, but at least when you're a kiddo, mom is there to help you. All that to say, I'm on the bored side of things... I've watched a couple movies (and by that I mean, I fell asleep in the middle of both), took a quiz for a class, and taken several naps. I really want to go photograph tonight, but obviously my temperature that's currently rivaling that of Texas summer highs, is not allowing that to happen... Thus begins my blog of my favorite pictures :) OH! And ebay has a site called World of Good,get it ebay.

something old for something new
Photo 365 part 1. This is part of the set of The Dazzle at Baylor University Theatre. My photog partner and I were hired to do the photo call stuff so tonight we went and played with cameras and the scenery. I love the old piano...
