Present Joys

• Participated in one last crit for my figure drawing class; could have used greater self-control.
• Had a mini-meltdown in my Worst Class of the Week, mostly because my inept teacher reprimanded me for using a gradient fill instead of two shapes, a blend, and a clipping mask. I am still justly furious.
• Kept my photo class at bay while we waited a half hour for teacher to show up. Not really. But seriously, yes.
• Got 100% on my photo final by completely honest means, exempting me from a bunch of extra work.
• Had a portrait photography crit, during which we hilariously cut Jason short by prematurely applauding.
• Started painting a portrait in acrylics that actually looks good, which was a huge surprise.
• Did very well on my last science quiz. (Thank goodness!)
• Had my photo taken.
• Got my team’s boards printed, mounted, and wrapped on thursday afternoon, which is a new personal record.

You mean you can wear stripper clothes when you’re not stripping? 

The atonement is finished; the High Priest is gone within the veil; salvation is now complete. He has laid aside the linen garments, and he stands before you with his breastplate, and his mitre, and his embroidered vest, in all his glory. Hear how he rejoices over us, for he hath redeemed his people, and ransomed them out of the hands of his enemies. Come, let us go home with the High Priest; let us clap our hands with joy, for he liveth, he liveth; the atonement is accepted, and we are accepted too; the scapegoat is gone, our sins are gone with it.
