Present Joys

THIS. Never not listening to Rich Mullins.

• Drew Kelly on blue paper with colored pencils.
• Used a film scanner to digitize my negatives, which worked really well and pretty cool.
• Went to the art museum with my photo class to “look at photography” but did not really see any.
• Realized our latest team project is due in only two weeks and consequently went into high-gear.
• Experimented with dip pens in illustration class. Used brown india ink for the first time.
• Took a quiz on famous photographers and did very well. (It was easy.)
• Did poorly on a chemistry quiz but pretty well on a chemistry test.
• Met with Mr. Burleigh wednesday and thursday to talk about my ads and am still confused.
• Drove downtown on friday for a special team meeting, where I sat in the Crane café and had a pot of pai mu tan and chatted about containers for several hours.

A few weekends ago, I spent the weekend in beautiful Hocking Hills at Camp Akita participating in and helping out with this “Creativity Retreat” event that my uncle runs. I met new people, got a fresh perspective on creativity and problem-solving, and washed out a bunch of wine glasses. Good times.
