So, here is how it goes, you tag five people on tumblr ( preferably followers ) and if you are tagged you give five facts about yourself...
theavant-gardeplaylist:
1. I’m an English/French major2. Because of #1…I tend to be a hopeless romantic
3. I love giving gifts to people
4. I speak Japanese
5. I’m a huge hypocrite

eemmaa *so good I had to add a sixth
eastling *icelandic lovers also get v.i.p. 7th spot tags as well
Yay! 7 is a good number.
1. I’m a Metals major. Technically, I’m a Metals & Jewelry major, and I suppose I do make jewelry, but my pieces tend to lean toward the sculptural side rather than the practical, wearable side.
2. I’m a firm believer in gentlemanliness: ladies first, opening doors, walking on the street side, etc. Chivalry is not dead.
3. Things that irritate me: bad drivers, people who take hours to get ready, tourists, being late, people who refuse to try new things, people who take themselves too freaking seriously.
4.Things that I love: choosing the *perfect* gift for someone, really well made mix tapes, thoughtfulness, receiving intangible gifts, good conversation over coffee, winter.
5. Things that I’m not ashamed to admit: I love Twilight, Taylor Swift, and saying JK and BRB in real life.
I shall tag…

You better believe it, you better believe it yo
+ Tonight I ate half a can of chocolate frosting after raiding the fridge and eating bits and pieces of Thanksgiving leftovers
+ The tree is decorated
+ I feel a little sick
+ So far this break I have been accused of bucking the system, bucking every system, being abnormal, having no responsibility, and being a good person
+ I honestly don’t even know what normal looks like, would I like it, I doubt it
+ Do I have to listen to Top 40
+ Can I marry that guy’s mustache
+ I made the purchase of the year today at Goodwill, it involves a gigantic red sweater, a Christmas tree, some stars (possibly snowflakes), and gold sequins
+ You better believe I wore that thing all day long
+ I’m trying to read Borges on a recommendation and he’s not nearly as interesting as I’d hoped
+ I didn’t respond because I don’t need to, right
+ I miss the studio
+ Who the hell misses their classes on break, I mean come on
+ I am not unhappy but I am about to fall into a sugar coma
Emotions should be like a water from a faucet - slow, steady, constant. But I am a bucket, and when it’s upended, everything comes out at once, fervently; and afterward the bucket is empty and exhausted.
write rent check before you leave.
Oh crap, thanks for reminding me! I need to send my security deposit!
I have good reason to be excited for the coming quarter, for being back in Savannah. A reason that has nothing to do with SCAD or classes or art or anything.
PATIENCE.
HOKAY THEN.
Alright, it’s official: I AM ALIVE AND WELL.
Richard called me and said that he just didn’t get a chance to get into the office on Friday, so he just wanted to make sure my project was there - NOT that it was inexplicably missing.
That being said… my quarter is shaping up to be all As (possibly one B, depending on how he grades that project… I’m right on the border of A and B in that class though).
I’ll be getting back into the swing of things Tumblr-wise soon, though. I’ve missed you guys! <3
accurate.
I have a had a fantastic night. Becks’s friend Matt came over and made lamb and vegetarian crepes and scallop hors d’oeuvres and they were PHENOMENAL. And Megan baked me a cake, and Sarah and Abigail came over, and everyone sang happy birthday, and Megan and Becks had gotten together and bought me Sigur Rós’s “Með Suð í Eyrum við Spilum Endalaust”.
So I’ve decided that a single class does not define me, and that spending time with people I love and care about is what matters most. I will be awake all night working on this project… but if it doesn’t get done, then it just doesn’t get done. I tried. I tried hard. And I’m okay and I accept the outcome. Even if I get the first C (in a class) of my life, I will live.
This may be the wine talking. But you know, sometimes the wine is right.
Also, someone today told me that I had a “Zooey Deschanel vibe,” apropos to nothing, so there’s that.
GPOYW: It’s My Birthday and I’ll Cry if I Want To edition
My friends are coming over tonight and Becks’s chef friend Matt is going to cook this awesome vegetarian birthday dinner for us and we’re going to drink wine and have a really wonderful time, and I am NOT going to let one stupid class ruin my birthday!
(BTW, I’m wearing my Studio 3 final project. It’s pretty BA if you ask me. It’s a locket, and I LOVE IT.)
So I went and met with my professor about this final project that I’ve been working crazy hard on that’s due tomorrow morning. I met with him because it didn’t look right and I wasn’t really sure what I was doing wrong… well it turns out I did basically everything wrong. And I have to start over. Completely. Not just like, erase some stuff, but like, get yourself a new sheet of paper and sharpen your pencils and start from scratch over.
I cried the whole way home. I hate art school.
Ways that I did not intend on spending my last day as a 22 year old:
+ Getting pulled over and ticketed for not wearing my seatbelt at 7:30 in the morning (I was on my way to a class that was two blocks away!)
+ Running out of gas on the side of the road (no excuse for that one, really)
+ Coming home to my street being blocked off because a tree fell on my neighbor’s car (I then decided that I was not, in fact, having the worst car day ever)
+ Realizing I’d lost my credit card somewhere between the gas station and my house (the bank called this morning to let me know that someone had found it and called them about it… so at least no one spent any money!)
So, that sounds like a terrible day, right? I’m having a pretty good day today though… I mean, it’s my freaking birthday, how can I not be in a good mood?? Plus W.A. sent me a text at midnight saying “Happy Birthday, am I the first??” which was pretty awesome. And I went to Primary and found the ellipse templates I needed to finish this project, AND I got an eggnog latte and a POLAR BEAR SUGAR COOKIE from Starbucks. Tonight my friends are coming over and one of Becks’s friends is cooking us all dinner and then we’re going to the chocolate bar later later for a few drinks. And then I’ll be probably staying up all night working on the project that’s due at 8 in the morning… SO CLOSE TO BEING OVER!
But for now, YAY FOR BEING 23!
Hey guys
I’m 23 now.
Wooooooo
SYSTEM ERROR
TOO MANY EMOTIONS
SHUTTING DOWN
Sometimes I am impatient and happy at once.
This is one of those times.
(It leads to insomnia, unfortunately.)
i need school to be overrrrrrrrr. i’ll return to tumblr when i actually have time for anything.
