1. The most challenging aspect of creating my logo design was that the computer was constantly shutting down, and that the memory would be erased almost every day.  Saving it to my flash-drive would sometimes work, but if I had a reference picture on the .ai it wouldn't show up the next time.  I feel the phoenix was the most impressive part of my logo.  This is because I came up with it quickly and I spent a lot of time on it's symmetry.

I want a time machine!!

Ok. This week went SO fast!!

This was my itinerary.

Friday: School.  Slightly sick.  Got home and watched Ergo Proxy.
Comments: I swear, I've been sick constantly lately.  But I am so happy I started watching Ergo!!  This weird ass future with a government just slightly more corrupt than our own was the most thought provoking anime I've watched in a while. 

Saturday: Singles awareness day, so lets watch The Imitation Game.
Comments:  Bad enough I saw all these couples all happy in the streets, but then I saw a movie with people smarted than me.  Who am I kidding, this was a great movie!!  Alan Turing is such an interesting person and Europe is such a dick!!

Sunday: SAT prep.
Comments: it is painful.  so much vocabulary.

Monday: Going to Sake.
Comments:  Linda's brother said he was a bottomless pit, but each girl there ate more than him!!  Also, we learned not to order again until everything comes.  I was on the verge of a food induced a coma, and I SUFFERED!!  Still, super tasty food.  I got to eat tamago!!


Tuesday: Practice SAT at A-List.
Comments: Every f*cking week.  I want to DIE.  I have time and a half so I'm in a small room for FIVE hours.

Wednesday: American Sniper.
Comments: The patriotism is approaching Micheal Bay Level, and the xenophobia is right up there with COD.  Made me want to play some Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.  AMERICA!!

Thursday:  More SAT prep and The Theory of Everything.
Comments: I can't wait until March, no more SAT (unless I get a less than desired score)!!  Oh, and The Theory of Everything was great.

Friday: Community Service for 2.5 hours, and fill up a pink cup from 16 Handles for $4
Comments:  Community service to make myself look like a good person.  But the only thing moving
me through the day was the promise of 30oz. of frozen yougurt.

Saturday: Fencing practice.
Comments: Private fencing is great, but the warm up takes up 1.5 of the 2 hrs!!!

Sunday: Another Practice SAT
Comments: When will it be March?!?!

I'm being repetitive because taking practice SATs is as well

Let's see art over the break!!~puru

So, me and my friend Abigail went to the MET over the break (it was Monday) to see all the mourning outfits and all the pretty paintings, jewels, furniture, and stuff. We walked through the European painting because that's always fun.

Anyway, I saw a bunch of really pretty painting that I liked. Diana and Cupid by Pompeo Batoni was really captivating, but my favorites were The Storm and Springtime by Pierre-Auguste Cot. They were so enchanting, the colors so in sync with each other. In Springtime the dark greens offset the pale bodies of the girl. In The Storm they almost melt into the background, as the tans of the ground and their skin blend so beautifully. i found in Diana and Cupid the red cloth covering Diana's lower half was bright and vivid in comparison to Diana's pale skin that glows white.

Abigail and I sat there for ~30 mins just looking at it's magnificence. I like romantisim era painting because it was the end of beautiful art that tricked one into thinking the world wasn't a horrible place with bleak colors *cough* realism *cough*. In addition I despise those paintings with a dot in the middle of the canvas that goes for upwards of $1million.
