I got my first jury duty summons in the mail today. I know it's a lottery and all, but I still don't understand why I got one before my 1 1/2- years-older-than-me-registered-before-me-sister. And the stupid thing is that studenthood only postpones your jury duty, not cancels it altogether. Life is not fair. not at all.
hhm also I am working on a 18x24 painting for watercolor class and it is actually turning out good. Usually I work very very small and that is bad, and when you work bigger it is kinda also a show of skill because bigger means less detail and therefore your imperfections are not hidden by intricacy. But it's an assignment that is not just a still life as usual. So I can use my imagination and I like that. I guess when I take more art classes I will be able to imaginate more too. But anyway the theme is 'mortal' . I am drawing a big night sky over a telephone pole with a bird on it. Pretty night skies, especially when you're more in the mountains /nature/out of humanlight, can be profoundly depressing because of their bigness and comparative immortality. The bird and the telephone pole kinda are supposed to show that when living things die, the universe doesn't really care. And thats what mortality means to me :I It's usually nice not to think about . bleh.
Also it's getting too hot. I like cold weather better because there are more clothing options and I don't have to show people my gnarled arms and scab ridden legs. aukhj and I must undergo the perilous process of icing tea. Also also heat is more tiring and dehydrating. Last summer I almost fainted a few times because I guess I didn't drink enough water or something. Which is weird. anyway coldness is better then hotness. In my opinion.
hah this is all over the place. goodbye. |
