In-TENSE.

I've already spent 7+ hours on homework for my art class this week. That's about what I spend on homework for an entire class during the fall or winter semester. There is no way I can get through this class by 'winging it'.

BUT I am realllly enjoying it. The projects are really interesting and the instructor is pretty great. I can already see improvement in my drawing, and I am 1000% more wary of composition. We had our first critique which was not bad at all even though the initial idea of having my classmates pick apart my pieces was really scary to me.

Today I volunteered with a few other girls from the league to pedal a bike powered stage a part of SOSFest. We signed ourselves up immediately because we love bike riding completely overlooking the inherent DIRTY FUCKING HIPPIE FACTOR. The music was fairly terrible. We had some delicious Caribbean food after at Irie then biked over to Victoria Park for our league wrap up party. I won the smelly award 2 years running. I feel that it was unjustly awarded this year, however, the trophy has a golden fucking cheese wedge on it so I have placed it in prime display real estate next to Yoda on the toy shelf. Then I found my last years smelly trophy and rockstar trophy to put beside Freddie Mercury on the adjacent shelf. Now I want more trophies!!

I jogged to school today to pick up some supplies from the art studio only to discover that the doors lock at 6 on weekends!!!!! My determination and sneakiness found me an alternate route through a service elevator in HUB. I am resourceful and BASICALLY Mata Hari. Eat it HUB security!!

Remember playing parachute games in kindergarten?? Like when you run around under a giant parachute and hide in it and stuff? We totally had one at the park and it is still fun but seemed a LOT smaller than it did when we were 5.
