I was working in the warehouse late one night
when my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my project from it's place did rise
and suddenly to my surprise

From my table in the warehouse east
to the colab floor where the cool kids feast
the students all came from their studio abodes
to have some fun at the festivities below

They did the mash
They did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a Warehouse Smash!
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
They did the mash
They did the monster mash!

There is a fifth dimension,

beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call...


So, I've been living in the Twilight Zone for the past week. First, someone broke into my car and stole my GPS and phone charger. (Granted, stuff like this doesn't usually happen in Syracuse, but when it does, it always seems to happen to me!) Anyway,I had my window fixed, but now the passenger side door will not open from the inside. Then, in driving to the apple orchard this weekend, our directions were wrong (oh, the irony), so we just ended up just driving in a big circle. Now yesterday, I spent the morning writing a "book report" on a 300 page book, only to get to class and realize that I had been reading the WRONG book. GAH! I felt like such an idiot! I've never done something that stupid; it makes me crazy!

On the plus side, work on my CommDesign projects is going quite well *knock-on-wood.* My roommate Marco helped me cut the masonite pieces for my musical's set design, then I spray painted all of the pieces, and now I'm just waiting for the glue to dry. Casey is also doing some illustrations for me for the book, so hopefully I can get a few of those from her today to start scanning and organizing :-)

I also created a mold for my packaging project and learned how to vac-form objects! Hopefully today marks the end of my stay in the Twilight Zone...

Weekend Weather Report

You know you're in Syracuse when it's expected to snow mid-October. Saturday has a 30% chance of snow, but that is not going to stop me from going apple/pumpkin picking! I'm also going to Casey's choir concert in the afternoon and then hopefully making some apple cider/pie later that night!

Work you ask? What work?
