Friday morning I left for Sioux Falls for a track meet. I was instantly depressed upon arriving because it was about 50 degrees there, sunny and their field looked like this:
Sunday was full of sleeping, editing a video, ellipticalling for a long, long time, some AbRibberX and doing last minute touch ups on my drawing project.
Monday was long, but relieving. I got A LOT done. I turned in my bird sculpture and critiqued it. It got mostly positive reviews and I decided to sit it on it's side (I called it "Tippy Sideways Bird," but it looks better that way) for my portfolio review tomorrow. Then I turned in my drawing project and critiqued it. It also got mostly positive reviews and I was relieved because I thought it would not. But here's how cool it looks hanging on the wall in the critique room:
Much cooler on the white wall than on the grey floor! |
Econ was Econ, done. I had a hard lift then went to the design studio to finish up matting some projects for my review. Got it done. Awesome day. Big stress relief!
And finally, today. Today was pretty good. I turned in my "Pants Off Dance Off" video which was not good. It was a good concept but the sound is bad and my lighting is mostly bad too. But it's still fun to watch and it's only a minute long so it might be worth your time!
History was also just History. Track was interesting because we threw outside. There's not a lot of snow left outside. There is a lot of water. I mean A LOT of water. Like, the whole field is basically under at least an inch of water and in some places there is up to six. The English Channel runs along the right side of our throwing area, and I swam it twice today to retrieve discs. I would say that I was just happy to be throwing outside, but I was not happy to be throwing outside. I was wet and unhappy.
But after track some friends and I had a little adventure in Fargo. We went to Spicy Pie (a really really good pizza place in Fargo) because they had 2-for-1 slices of pizza. So basically, for $4 you got two slice of pizza (which in Spicy Pie language is close to half a pizza) and a pop. AWESOME. Then we went to Wal-Mart which was also... Fun.
I wanted to have picture of my portfolio review room all set up for you, but there were lots of people still there when I was setting up so I didn't get it all done and couldn't get pictures. But tomorrow, I promise.
I have to go to bed now, I have a 7AM wake-up call and a very, very important morning! I'll leave you with a little tweet I found amusing, from the Hulk himself, Clay Matthews (and don't ask for a context for this because I know as much about it as you do):
"Traffic traffic... Looking 4 my chapstick... Gettin kinda carsick... There's a Ford Maverick."
