    not even pretending to do work anymore

    6 Nov 2009

    There is nothing I want more right now than to go back to my room, take a shower and spend a relaxing post-midterm morning catching up on my sketches in a breezy common room.

    I really don’t like how my supposedly “free” schedule has somehow transmogrified into an extremely “unfree” schedule.

    TWO HOURS OF WORK LEFT. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT TIME IS PASSING THIS SLOWLY.

    Some time in the first week of orientation, I went to an event off East Quad where they were giving out free Ben & Jerry’s. I don’t remember much about the event except that it was a bunch of people in a little courtyard, and I cut in line with Claire to get a scoop of cookie dough or Chunky Monkey or something. (God, I could really use some Chunky Monkey right now. Then again, considering my increasing resemblance to an actual chunky monkey, those calories might not be such a good idea.)

    Anyway, I think the event was organised by CRU (Campus Crusade for Christ) or something, and I think I may have been ambushed by some girl who asked for my contact information, and now I keep getting CRU emails and I don’t know how to take myself off their listserv.

    Very annoying.

    I really love being at college.

    The other day I was walking by Perkins, just a usual ho-hum afternoon, and I passed this woman and suddenly realised: oh my god, that’s A. S. Byatt.

    That’s A. S. Byatt.

    I really love being at college.

    It would be decades before I’d discover the camera was famous, but I knew how much I loved using it – and got permission to take it home weekends. When I left the medical center in 1970, I had to leave the Leica and had little interest in shooting with my instamatic after that. Buying a Leica wasn’t an option.

    With the birth of my granddaughter in 2003, I got my first little digital camera. I knew then that I’d get a “good” digital camera only when Leica made one. Three years later, in November 2006, I had my M8 in my hands. It’s been everything I hoped for, and expected.

    your mischievous smile
    your rather weird hair
    your sense of humour
    your perverse mind
    the occasional annoying conversations
    the funny random noises you make
    the burning touch of your fingertips on my skin

    CUE DEPRESSION

    3 Nov 2009

    [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

    And oh, I’ve been dumb, I’ve been perfectly beautiful;
    lain on my back buying lovers with stealth.
    But I’m sick of you all, and I’m sick of opinions,
    and I’m sick of this war I wage on myself.
    I don’t know why I’m so gripped to go there;
    a universe riddle that only I know?
