Happy Birthday to Me

Grad SchoolRachel AuerbachComment

I had a wonderful birthday today, including a very happy party last night. We had all sorts of desserts, (it was a dessert potluck) and some dancing, and just a nice little group of people that all fit quite comfortably in our little house.

I spent most of the day in the studio today and didn’t get much done – in part because I had long phone conversations with Dad, Dan, Mom, and Ray. I’m definitely feeling very rough around the edges as far as school goes. I did an abysmal job on our assignment on Friday and I feel like the work I did get done today is pretty substandard. I don’t know what it is, but my jive is off, and I want it back. On the other hand, I’m doing pretty well with the reading and writing, so there’s something.

On that note, I’ve been meaning to write a bit more about the Thinking and Making, but I’m not sure it will happen any time soon. We’ve been reading about Existential Space, and I’m guessing that I might have a few thoughts about our Spatial Composition reading every week, since it’s nice and theoretical.

Off I go to do a bit of reading before bedtime. I’m 24!
