Saturday, May 03, 2003 our studio project is really becoming huge. and when i say huge i mean *huuuuuumongous*. first we put lines in our cubes. then planes, then paths (stairs, ramps etc) and now finally, more cubes. tiny ones. frames n all that, so we can put objects in them. how crazy is that ?! and we took it off the table it was sitting on, and set it on the floor, so it attracts so much attention now. random people walk into our studio and ask 2 questions: "what year studio is this ??" and "what's this supposed to be ?!" and finally they go "ahh .." and walk off. probably thinking "this is the shittiest thing i've seen for awhile"
but i like it !! it's such a crazy wacky project. and everyone's calling us "the weird studio". which is ok 'coz i'm used to people calling me weird. or even thinking it for that matter.
so anyway. i will put the pictures on this blog when 1) we're finished with the whole thing and bring it for exhibition. 2) i learn how to put pics on this blog. =))
*sings* oh it's those lazy hazy crazy days of summm-eeeer ..
Friday, May 02, 2003 very fruitful day today. bought myself a rainbow-coloured beanie with bauble and ear-flaps !! how cool is that !! =D now all i need is some cold weather. also, i bought a pair of wacky sunnies to complete my powerpuff girls look. today, being friday, i decided to wear some happy clothes so i wore a fuschia ppg top (thanks lynne) and a glittery black knee length slinky skirt (thanks ee), with white socks (high) and my black clompy mary janes. THEN i went to freo and got the wacky glittery bug-eyed sunnies. and now i am a massive powerpuff girl !! *saving the world before bedtime* WHOOSH !!
adit bought like a zillion cds today =)) ben harper DOUBLE CD for $25 !! and a queen TRIPLE CD for $36 !! we are very happy campers.
in fact, this almost takes away the bleh-ness of having to go to uni tomorrow 'coz i didn't finish my work today =P was day-dreaming about beanie ..
the thing about stuff from freo though, is that it always has this SMELL. it's this gross smell that i've only ever encountered in freo caused by "oriental"/new age/hindu-wannabe-ancient hippy-dole bludgers who burn incense and try to find a deeper meaning to life. sick as.
Thursday, May 01, 2003 u know something ?? i'm terrible at tech and structures. that's a unit of my course. and this wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't the bit that actually tells you the standards and basically .. how to build structures (hence the name) *stresses*
on a lighter note..you know who else is cute ?? jimi mistry.
