i just finished my last project.

let's not talk about how grades were due this past wednesday and today right now is sunday.

6 classes is too many when two of them are studios. never let me do that again.

i am taking 6 classes. there is so much reading to be done. it is sad that i will never be able to read everything i want to, yet i have to spend so much time reading all these things that are not what i want to read at all.

someday i will be a real adult with real complaints. that day is not today.

i have a bruised arm pit. it's really uncomfortable. i don't know where it came from. stretching?

i am maybe going to nanny on mondays and wednesdays for the semester/year? it means i can't take lithography. i was looking forward to lithography. i think i need the money. it scares me to think i need the money.

i have a rent to pay. the place with the beautiful wallpaper. i haven't moved in yet. i should move in tomorrow. i don't have a bed. where can i get a cheap cheap cheap bed that is also super comfortable? i hate sacrificing quality.

i also hate when alex doesn't answer his phone. i am too easily frustrated. particularly concerning phonecalls and printmaking. i can't get past the drawing stage on this printmaking project. it is making me angry angry angry.

This afternoon it was sunny and hot and a man with a gun and a red bandana over his nose and mouth held up the workers next door and then said Give me all your money! to my father in the front yard.
But my dad didn't have any money, doesn't have any money.
So he said I dont have any money.
So then the man said Give me what you have! (he probably yelled it--i imagine he yelled it; he was probably very angry), and so my father gave him his wallet. And the man ran away down the street to his getaway car with this wallet in which there was not even one single dollar bill.

which leads me to ask: what ever happened to robbers holding up banks??
isn't that lesson number one? shouldn't that be lesson number one?
banks are where there is money. money is in the bank.
there is certainly none in our front yard. what was he thinking??? we do not even have hedges.

i don't want to get my hopes up because maybe it is too expensive for three people ($1800?), but there is this apartment that i looked at today that is so beautiful. there is wallpaper in nearly every room and there is a walk-in-closet and a balcony and two bathrooms and it is close to school and i love it. please can i live there? i just want to live there.

today the museum of science and industry did not go right at all.
I thought they were having extended hours.
they did not have extended hours.
they said You know we close at 5:30?
and it was already 5pm.
Do you still want your free tickets? they asked
and we took them of course.
but we only got to see some baby chickens and a baby-sized chicago made from whatever replicas are made from.
Blake and Hannah were so sad.
they had spent so much on busfare and trainfare, and for not very much museum at all.
I would have been angry too, but alex has been generous with his chicago card.
thank you, mr. ned.
we walked back to Millennium Park.
a symphony played Gershwin in the bandstand behind the bean.

chicago is raining.
my lips are swollen and blistery-hived from eating mango right from the skin.
i didn't even know i was allergic.
i said "what are all these mosquito bites on my shoulder and the back of my arms and behind this one knee?"
then alex said "there are no mosquitos in chicago."
so i thought i was allergic to his couch from salvation army.
but then i woke up short of breath and with a mouth like angelina jolie's.
"that is not contact dermatitis," said my mother. "it is from something you've ingested."
mango.

too bad mangos are so delicious.

except maybe not as good as breastmilk...?:

chicago! chicago!
i hope i do not miss blueberry season.

i keep thinking about finishing unfinished printmaking.
and maybe going to grad school.
and maybe seeing if i can study abroad.

currently, right this second, i am watching a lot of tv. too much.
it is mostly infomercials/jesus tv.
why does kirk cameron love GOD so much?
hasn't he heard about the holocaust?

is that unreasonable of me?
