A panorama shot of my new room with my friend Joe hanging out on my rug.
I recently moved into a new Co-Op house, and I am in the process of cleaning up the place with the help of the new members. Unfortunately, the guys staying here previously allowed the house to go to shit, so there’s some work to be done. I’ve already cleaned three common spaces – next, up, the kitchen and the backyard. Weeee-hooooo.
Enjoying Kings of Leon lately as I clean – good fresh Southern indie rock. In the meantime, I am preparing for that dreaded event all seniors must face at the School of Art & Design – the Integrative Project (IP). In short, it’s like a year-long thesis project for senior art students – we each get our own studio space and must propose a year-long project to our advisors (we choose out of several pairs of teamed professors). I plan on doing a bimonthy comic series for my project containing a continuous, semi-related creepy storyline (a la Twilight Zone), comic diaries and possible one-shots and sketches. Hopefully my advisors will like my idea and will give me FUNDING to print that damned thing every (other) month.
And, of course, there’s always work do to (and find), friendly drama and future times to fret over, blah blah blah.
I’ve begun a Book of Shadows and I am using it to document my dreams in comic form – I’ve almost finished the first entry, and will post it when finished! And, by Book of Shadows, I mean an old sketchbook I’ve collaged the crap out of that I’ve filled with recipes, herbal remedies, diary entries, weird info, etc. – in a sort of pseudo-witchy way. I don’t actually believe in magic, and I couldn’t really call myself Wiccan or anything but I definitely have a perverse interest in the occult and I integrate it in humorous little ways into my life.
I guess I get it from my Dad.
