Little Jay's Thoughts

So I haven't posted since I've been back cause I've been crazy-busy. 18 credits this semester, 4 studios (a double-studio on Monday), 2 lectures, and lots of homework/learning to come. I'll be alright, I just actually have to work for once. I got back here last Saturday, and once my parents left I called up Owen and he said "Meet me in 20 minutes, we're going to see Obama." We had no idea what we were doing and if we'd see anything, but we headed down towards the harbor and went through security, and long story short, got to see Obama speak. It was absolutely amazing.

I spent a lot of time over at Owen's new place at the Copycat, too, cause our apartment didn't have heat. It's great over there, and we went to the abandoned coat factory next door a bunch of times and I got some great boxes and buttons and coat labels and a shnazzy brown blazer. This is the view from the roof of the coat factory:

And this is an oil slick in the parking lot of a Baltimore Target.

I went out to an after-hours dance club on Charles Street for a while and it was fun as hell. Dancing on the raised platforms with Libby and Nathan to Lady Gaga and Britney and Beyonce, having moms cheer us on, throw us their scarves, and watching/fully enjoying 3 obsese black women go apeshit to every song that came on, namely "Womanizer" and "Single Ladies." It was fantastic. No photographic documentation of that unfortunately.

I went to The Book Thing this afternoon and added to my growing collection of cheesy teen novels from the late 70's-early 90's. They're just so fucking funny, I'll never get tired of them. This is just a tiny highlighted portion I had to scan and share with the world:

We established that this photograph depicts exactly what happens to you the second you step into the country of Turkey.

LIFE LIFE LIFE LIFE LIFE

What it all comes down to in the end...

I also saw Mister Lonely yesterday, which I've been meaning to since it came out, and I enjoyed it despite some goofy special effects/moments. The cinematography was stunning. I would LOVED framed still prints of so many of the scenes.
