Hopefully...

I may be the proud owner of one of these puppies, like, soon. PLEASE LET THIS WORK OUT!

Hasta la vista, internet.

I gave Tiffany back her computer :)

but that means, not as many blogs.

Until next time!

I really love the new iPhone ad. It makes me teary and happy.

I have been meaning to write for several days, but computer access has been limited. Right now, I am using the darling Elyse's computer, while she is at church.

You see, I recently required a part time job via the internet. The jist of it is this: every 48 hours, I post apartment listings to craigslist on behalf of a real estate agency. It is pretty easy, but definitely requires regular computer access. Right now, for the 2nd time, craigslist isn't allowing me to submit the last of my posts, due to their "servers being busy." Yeah, right.

Here's the cool part though: the amazing Tiffany is letting me borrow her netbook until I can get a computer of my own! It should be here by Wednesday. It is actually a cute little computer (I helped Tiffany set it up with iTunes when she bought it), and will be VERY useful to me. Now, I can have a functioning internet social life!

...and do homework, or "research", I guess.

I just ate a delicious BBQ pork bun at Yak's in Fremont, and it was only $2.52 (tax included). So. Good. With Sriracha/Teriyaki sauce/Spicy Chili sauce it is amazing. I wish I had got two (my stomach is a bottomless pit).

Updating my art corner is difficult, mostly because I do not own a computer. I have often been asked, "Heaven, how do you survive school without a laptop?" I often answer: "I don't." Literally, my grades suffer severely, not to mention my social networking life. And, probably most importantly, it is hard for me to be able to "on a whim" google an artistic subject matter.

In my Western Traditions II class (aka Art History II), I often see people, laptops out, quickly typing away their notes and speed-googling various art-topics, or artists themselves. I always peek at what they are looking at, and this stuff looks amazingly helpful in terms of the class, and just personally applying the ideas of the masters to a modern perspective...I'm pretty jealous.

I will have a computer. Someday. I will have a 13.3 inch Macbook pro, in fact. I'm holding out for it. No Dell computers for me. HP? Maybe...but no, no, I need my Macbook pro.

Ok, anyway. My friend Vanessa found this lovely designer on etsy. This stuff is amazing, and I really like what Vanessa had to say about it: "...her pieces look like music for your eyes!"

It's true, her pieces are very lyrical. The line repetition is really pleasing to me, as well as the different washes of color layering each other. Even though some pieces seem sort of dreamlike, and maybe chaotic, they are at the same time overwhelmingly peaceful!

Her blog is quite adorable as well. Wish I had a computer so I could persistently lurk my favorite artists. Sucks.
