“A body remains at rest, or moves in a straight line at a constant speed, unless acted upon by a net outside force.”
This weekend has been a wonderful rest for me. Fun Friday night, lots of sleep saturday, and today we’ve just been cleaning, had some pork store breakfast and did all those things normal people get to do on the weekend like trim the plants. At breakfast I was mentioning that I feel like the concept of homework and work is so far away that I’ll never get back into it. But as soon as I said it, I started tallying up all the things I need to do by the end of March. I will take tonight off, watch the boob toob, and get back on the horse tomorrow. I am my own net external force, and although I love this feeling of doing whatever I feel like and sleeping in late, I know I must kick my heels in.
I went to the artist reception at the Studio Gallery on Saturday but we had to leave early because Tom’s band mate has a very sick kid and he needed to leave his car with his wife. We had to make an unexpected trip to South SF so we ended up only being at the gallery for a half hour or so. I heard I missed someone, I’m not sure who it was, but if you went there and missed me, I’m sorry! I really should put my cellphone number on the emails next time.
I’m in a great deal of shock over my acceptance to CCA. I think if I could go back and tell my 16 year old self that she’d be going to art school at age 35, she’d be very proud of me. It only took 19 years! I’m very scared and nervous. I hear getting the AA done is the hard part, and the BFA and MFA are easy. I’m not sure I believe it but I’m willing to suspend belief if it’ll take the edge off.
