i'm at studio right now.
i'm working on defining my storage problem.
jeremy brought up the d&d figurines this weekend.
i hope i can come up with a clever solution. who knows.
i had a pbj sammy and some chips for dinner.
jeremy, john, and i spent two hours today trying to fix
the kitty litter. i have one of those automatic scoopy ones.
littermaid. it started making some really horrible sounds two weeks ago.
we were trying to figure out what the problem was.
word to the wise. DO not ever try to take apart your littermaid!
we broke it. the springs are very hard to keep in..so everytime we tried to close
the motor part, the springs kept flying out.. we eventually lost one of
the springs.
ahh.. nothing like playing in kitty poopy on a sunday evening.
i had to shower before i came up..
i felt nasty.
cats would be perfect if they didn't have to poop.
anyhow, i better get back to working.
i still have so much to do.

morning. actually it's more like late morning. you couldn't even
go get a McMuffin or hashbrown now. I'm bummin'..
I have to head off to school in about 30 minutes. We have studio
today. We're supposed to do our re-presentations. I already know what
he's going to say. "sir, i already know what you're going to say so you can just move on to the next one". hehe.
we have to discuss our new projects though. we needed to have picked a problem of storage.. it's a really difficult project because we must first define the parameters of the
storage problem before ever envisioning a solution. that is very difficult.

public transportation is awesome.
today after class i went back to my studio to meet
my partner. we needed to print out labels for our re-presentation
drawings. we tried just regular transparencies but
when we tried to glue them on you could see the glue behind.
one guy in our class suggested we go to kinkos and print
the titles out on sticky back transparencies.
we started our journey by going to the student union photo center.
they didn't have it. we then walked down the drag to
the longhorn copy place and they didn't have it either.
we didn't really want to walk all the way down to kinkos. it
was about a mile and a half away.
we saw the campus loop bus (Forty Acres) stop. we ran toward the bus
and got in. it dropped us off right across the street from kinkos.
kick butt. when we got into kinkos, they were like we don't have sticky back transparencies. WHAT!? liars. the guy in our studio said that's where he got his done at. so we went outside. suddenly we saw the second Forty Acres bus coming down the street. We raced to the bus stop again and caught a ride back to our studio.
It was awesome.. pointless and futile but awesome. :)
we ended up using the transparencies we had. i had some adhesive spray i used to create our own sticky back. now that's done.
i spent most of tonight re-arranging my room. i have my office set up now.
i love working from home (as opposed to an office).
jeremy's coming early tomorrow. i'm excited.
he might meet me at school before i get out of class.

what a useless book. it was so remedial.
i think that the reader is much more detailed
and complex. I hate textbook reading material.
it's written so basic and with no interests in
the subject. sigh.
luckily i was able to return it with a full refund.
my other school wouldn't let me do that.
hope i do well.

what a morning trip. first of all i did NOT want
to get up for school! john and i were late hending out
the door. I dropped him off about ten minutes late
to class outside one of the major dorms. I then made my
way around to the parking lots and started circling
with the rest of the auto-vultures. I could NOT find a spot! Usually I never have this much trouble. I'm not sure what was up with today. I think it was the time I came up.
If a class is ending, I never have trouble. An HOUR later, I found a spot. Just as I was parking, I saw the campus bus come by. I ran out of my car and ran to the bus stop just
as the vehicle was coming to a stop. I hopped in but there was nowhere to sit. The next thing I know I'm flying two feet in front of me. The driver didn't even bother to wait for any of us to find something to hold onto. I slammed into some chick and a guy. heh.
How embarrassing. When we pulled up to the first stop, I noticed the campus loop bus
sitting in front of us. I transferred quickly and then we were off to my building.
As soon as I got off this bus I waited with a heard of students at the cross light. I crossed and headed into the campus book store. This "overachiever" in my urban theory class told the whole class how she "extremely recommended" the recommended reading to us. Ack..
there goes another 50 bucks down the drain. So now I have this supplemental text book I'm about to read. Wow. It's already 11:15am. Almost time to get some grub.

today's lecture was a bore.
it pissed me off actually. i felt like i was cheated from
a good educational class.
i'm at the studio right now working on my re-presentation of
the last project. i'm so done with this.
i just got back from eating with john. we had dinner at chipotle's..
on the drag. it was getting dark as we were leaving. he told me he was going
to go to La Fun (an arcade two stores over) before studying again.
i told him i didn't want him to be out on the drag this late by himself.
he said.. point taken..but he was still going. i started to come along and then
he totally jumped on me saying he didn't need his sister looking after him all the time.
..like being in college and 18 makes you immune to muggings.. whatever.
dork.

tired.
yesterday i had quite a scare in class.
my studio was starting and one of the guys in my class was like "have
you finished your paper in theory class yet?" I was like "nope, i'm going to do it tonight."
he was like "dude, it's due by 5pm today!" I scrambled like mad.. hehe.
I went to the lab and pumped out my paper in like forty minutes and didn't miss anything
from my studio. the frustrating part was trying to get the dang thing to print.
print print you stupid slow machine.
during studio, my teacher gave us our new project. it's a pretty broad
scope. "store something" You have to design something you can store something in..and it has to have specific parameters. I was thinking about designing a display case for jeremy's warhammer figures. I'm not sure yet. I might store dessy and tigger. :) ..build them a play house i mean.. or a cat couch... I can't decide. He wants us to come up with something by tommorrow.
i'm hustling right now trying to finish my re-presentation for studio. My partner and I are
fixing the layout. I'll be glad to move onto the next project.
i have two classes today. one is three hours longs. it's going to be a very tiring day.
john wants to stay after school and study.
guess it'll be another late night.

it's midnight and my brother and i have made another trek up
to campus. we got here around 10pm. i've been doing studio work
and he's been doing homework..and studying. today's been
quite an eventful day. Jeremy, John, and I went to go pick up Charmaine (my brother's girlfriend) from the people who brought her up here. She was here to visit for a few hours.
We went to eat at Applebees. The food was rather dissapointing.
We then went to eat Marble's Slab. I had my usual vanilla with reeces pbj cups.
Jeremy had a bananna flavored malt. we hung out for awhile.. then it was time
to drop charmaine off again. jeremy stayed with me till i finished my
paid work stuff..so i wouldn't have a stress attack. after he left, john and i decided to come up to campus to get some work done.
i've reached a stopping point but john isn't ready to go yet. i'm going to see what extras i can do and then i'm call it quits. i can't wait to go home, take a shower, and then hit the sack. tomorrow is going to be a long day.

i'm in studio right now.
i'm drawing an oblique from plan.
woohoo. real exciting.
there's gonna be a peace ralley outside the university
tower today. I think there will be one outside the capital
as well. why do i get the feeling it will be raining blood soon?
Jeremy's coming to visit this weekend.
I can't wait.
traffic was something else this afternoon. John was late to class
because we couldn't get to school in time. I'm not sure what's going on...
I think there are about a million people in the metropolis..
and one lousy highway. :)
smirk.

oy!
what a drive home.
it took forever. i usually never come home around 4pm.
I did today and what a mistake. traffic was something
of a horrible nature!
I was almost out of gas too. that would have been awful.
last night i went to bed really late. My brother was playing this game
called Wolfenstein 3d... it's the new version though. It reminds me of a cross between quake and tribes. i wonder if my video card will support it. I might give it a shot.

Ants Marching
Yesterday I came into studio and there were ants all over my desk.
I had left out a cookie and part of my dr. pepper in a cup.
I was like DAMN. I had use my secondary cutting board desk.
I removed the food and drink and wiped the table to get rid of
any excess sweets. I came back today thinking that they would have
all dissipated or something. There were still quite a few left.
I was thinking.. MAN, what do these things want from me?
I started sifting through my piles of trace paper and saw
the reason for the initial invastion. A grasshopper had
passed away on my desk. URgh.
I removed the deceased and am now hoping when i get back tomorrow, the
little armies will have been recalled for a more glorious mission.
:)
little silly biters.
anyhow, i'm off to class now. i finished my reading.
it was long and full of diagrams and charts.
:P

just got to school. i left more than an hour ago.
it took me forever to find parking. it also took forever
for the inter-campus loop to arrive. In the winter, I'll prolly
take up walking again. Until then, I'm tired of coming
to class all sweaty and stuff. I'm about to sit down and do my
readings. I haf some actualy paid work to do tonight..and also some
studio stuff. I'm going to have to figure out how to get it all
done by tomorrow morning. :)
ahhh..isn't this the life.
I read teh cover of the newspaper today as i was passing the news
stands. It read "US deploys troops".
Guess I'll end it there.

bored. bored. i'm in studio.
he's going over stuff with other students.
i went first so i've just been sketching ever since..
and walking around. the way these studios were built, you don't get
to see what everyone else is doing unless you make an effort..
so did. i explored the building and poked my nose into all the different
studios.
i've been thinking a lot about teaching lately.. and also about
getting my PhD. I'm not sure how everything will work out though.
There are so many factors that go into all those things.
Architecture is really something complex..that takes a lot out of you..
and gives a lot back. The path to becoming and architect is such an elitist
cycle. There's so much endentured serventry that's involved.
I need to do more writing.. sketching.
I need to do more reading.. research.
but all I'm doing right now is reflecting and contemplating...

just got through watching the family man with john.
we ate leftover barbeque from saturday.. ewwww. hehehe.
oh well. this is college.. we have to be frugile. we have to go take
john's car to get estimated tomorrow... he got in a wreck like two weeks ago.
the insurance is gonna pay for the back of the car but not the front.
i'm tired. i need to do some reading and then go to bed..
they've constructed a public wall outside of the architecture building on
the west mall. The put paintsticks by it.. you're supposed to go up and write
your comments about war and anti-war. I should go take a picture of it tomorrow.

well, i finished one of the articles and got started on the other one.
they were pretty good. the subjects are mainly about the foundations of reasoning
and science..and the languages used in regards to them.
it's 5 minutes before class but there's still another class in the room.
i wonder what class will be like. i never know.
i posted a comment on the class listserv... no on responded.
i found it rather ironic since 2/3rd of my fellow pupils can't shut up
to let other people talk in class.
guess they're just trying to impress the teacher or something.
oh well.
gonna head to class now.
i have another class after this one.. three hours long!

Well, I went to school early today with my brother. I had massive amounts of reading to do. I'm going to work on the second set now. I got some lunch around 12.. a chef salad, a cookie, and a large Mr. Pibb. It was good but I don't understand why they put so much ham
and turkey in a salad. Seems weird to me...and I love meat!
The article I just got through reading was really good. It was about Stone Age Economics.. and talked about how hunter socities have a low needs value and a vast amount of means. It puts a great perspective on cultures the media calls savage.
Anyhow, it's back to work I go.

ugh. i woke up too late today.
i had to call my co-worker and get some paid work done.
i didn't get to sleep till about 2am yesterday.
i was watching the news for an hour.
once i saw that nothing was getting accomplished, i turned it off..
there's nothing that'll make you more sleepy than seeing peter jennings
about to pass out.
anyhow, i have school at 1am today.
i have a project on entrances due this friday.
i wanted to go to my friend's "coffee," a discussion group, on Thursday...
but I prolly won't be able to since I have this to get done.
ugh.
oh well. need to eat something now. i'm starving.

i'm still at school.
how is this that i am still at school and yet all my classes were canceled today?
JOHN decided that this is the day he wants to stay after school and study.. ugh.
i did some sketching outside..and now i'm in the lab just goofing around. i'm getting a little hungry now and i really would like to get home soon. i'm tired.
i guess it's good that i'm not at home..
i'd prolly just waist my time watching the news.
i don't think i want to see anymore unless they have something news..watching the same scenes over and over again is really disturbing..

just got back from lunch with my prof.
we talked about the tragedy first off..
then we talked about planning and archticture..
it was really nice. we went outside in the
plaza and ate lunch with the pigeons. It's so easy to forget everything...
isn't that amazing about america though?
one part of our country can be completely devestated..but other parts are still functional..
we are felt emotionally..but the day still goes on.. isn't that one of our greatest traits?
i found out the school of architecture has canceled classes..so i don't have any classes today. i'm going to hang around till john gets out of school. want to get back to tv.
guess i'll try to do some more surfing now..doubt i'll find any viable internet source though.

how long has it been?
i'm so tired. John and I have been driving up to school since it's faster
than driving to a bus route and then taking that into campus.
The only set back is that parking is way out there! It takes thirty minutes
to walk to my classroom. The bonus is that it gives me good exercies..
or so I think. Today I walked all over the west mall of campus because
I'm doing a studio project which requires me to remodel it. John and I ate on campus at a dormitory cafeteria. He still has money credit on his orientation card.
I thought the food was decent.
I've been void of money work lately...but all the sudden I just got hit with a ton of work to do. It's all due tomorrow. I'm trying to get it done tonight but I'm so sleepy. My body just wants to quit.
I know I should write more about the kind of experiences I'm having in Austin..but...
well .. its passes..
I just sat down outside and played with dessy. She's the cutest thing in the world. She rubs up against me and whelps trying to get as close to me as possible. She rolls over and does flips.. hehehe..Whenever she's in this mood her tail poofs up like a pipe cleaner. FLoOOFY!

ola. in my studio now.
i just got through wandering and walking all
over this hilly campus. i was looking for the parking department to pick up my parking tag.
it took me forever to find it.
i went to school early today to pick up the tag
and do an assignment. i have a lot of readin to do as well. i have to meet with a friend
to go take pictures of some building entrances at one. it's almost lunch time. i'm going to have a ceasar salad from the Student Union. mmmmm.
hopefully i won't get mobbed by the people outside. it's like student organization recruitment day. "Here have a flyer"

i suck at cooking.
i tried to make some muffins this evening.
i burnt a batch and the second batch has a blackened top.
i don't know if i just got a cheap mix or what...
i'm worn out right now. i didn't cook dinner tonight but i had to prepare
most of it.. aka. warm it up in the microwave. my mom came this past weekend and she cooked john and i lots of food to eat for the week.
speaking of cooking, when john came back from home..he brought up some of the stuff that i had asked my parents for. my mom gave john this tapioca starch something or other. what was really cute was she put a label on the jar. she must have printed it out from her computer. my dad did something similar. i had asked him to copy some stuff for me on cd. what he did was discard the aol labels from their free cases and stuck the cds in there..with labels and everything. I wonder why john and i don't have such attention to detail?
pooped now. gonna go take a shut eye break.

heeve ho!
john and i brought two big boxes of my
achitecture supples to the studio.
that's where i am now. he left to go meet
up with his friend to study at the library.
i went to kinkos to print out my assignment.
when i got back, i organized my stuff the best i
could. i might need to buy an organizer or something... or i might just make do.
i'm about to call john and see if he's ready to go. i would like to get home soon..
i think john and i will stop at HEB on our way and pick up some lemonade and cookies and cream icecream.. oh. and a bay of reeces p&b chips.
mmmmm..

howdy.
i'm down here in the lab again.
my second class for today is three hours
long so we're on a break right now.
so far the professor seems really cool.
we're talking about theory.. which i love.
funny, it doesn't seem like any of my classes
will have tests. i'm telling you my mindset has been altered. i'm actually more willing to expand my learning knowing that i won't be tunnel-visioned into exam learning.
it's like worldly knowledge vs. exam based knowledge..
i'm gonna get back to class now.
my 10 minutes is almost up and i need
to wash my hands.. cuz i'm compulsive like that.
