It’s that time again, the back to school and homework and projects time. I’m back in San Francisco, just in time for some nice warm weather, just as its cooling down back east. I’m also taking some pretty awesome classes this semester…

Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic: in which on the first day, the class stood in a circle and held hands and transfered energy through each other…our teacher has outright said we are going to do “weird” things, this should be interesting and definite something different.

Screen Printing: I am super excited for this, I’ve wanted to learn to screen print for a long time now and its a good cross over from digital media.

Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign: Another class with a teacher I’ve had several times, again a class I’m excited for because I’ve never worked with Indesign.

Frameworks of Art, Design and Technology: This class is with my department chair, and I was really skeptical if I’d stay in this class, because its six hours long on Wednesday starting at 9am and I’m just not a 9am type of girl. But I went to the first class and I’m pretty pumped for it, it should be really interesting and delve into more abstract design ideas.

Math: I don’t know what to think of this class, the teacher is a riot, he says “math is not about numbers, and all that shit, its about all that other shit, and logic is just what you use to clean up after the parade.” Uh what? I don’t know, but apparently Pythagorus was a cult leader? Yeah. This will certainly be an experience…

So the land of school, as of the first week was good, I’m pretty excited to start making stuff again. Outside of school things are more or less typical…

I got another tattoo…a lighthouse.

And I got a haircut, I’ve been wearing my bangs forward like this now, I think its cute.

So I suck at writing on this thing over summer apparently…oh well, I’ve been insanely busy with work and my volunteer stuff. Heres what’s good…

In prior posts I mentioned getting a tattoo of a sailboat…and on Saturday I finally did.

The school year came to a close, I did well maintaining my GPA at 3.25 and I feel rather proud of this. I got an apartment, still in the Tenderloin, with my best friend and for certain soul mate, Michelle. The beginning of June brought me back to the east coast, and here I will be for an unknown period of time. Life is currently uneventful, time is being spent with friends and family and relaxing, as well as many late nights writing and thinking and sketching. However that is not to say that I do not have goals for my summer…I plan to read 20 books by August 1st, go back to yoga, successfully learn to drive a manual transmission car, learn to cook at least five new things, make considerable progress on the writing of my book, practice the piano, and perhaps some more things will come up as time passes.
