DONT STAND SO CLOSE TO ME..

Today during class I had this huge urge to blog. It was the strangest thing. We were talking about impulsive behavior and how it relates to a style of design, and suddenly, I had this impulse to blog. I couldnt remember the email addition thingy that I was supposed send it to and I was flipping out. How cool would it be if I posted my random minute to minute blog tid bits?


Anyway, I wanted to write that I have a weird crush on my teacher. The same teacher I complained about day one. Turns out hes actually pretty cool. Hes a strange guy. I find him so quirky and funny. Maybe it was because he walked into class today and the first thing he said was "Hello Rachel" I had no idea that he even knew my name. Hes so cute! Wait no, not like that kind of cute. Hes a lot older and he wears the same thing every week. He keeps a red bandana in his pocket to wipe his face with when he sweats. Sounds appetizing, no? He wears these navy pants that always has a stray red thread on the belt loop. Same one every week. It drives me insane bec I sit in front and I always want to just pull it off. Im starting to think that its actually sewn on.. Theres just no possible way that a stray piece of thread can stay in the same spot all the time. Anyway, he says the strangest things about our drawings. Dudes a classic. I couldnt stop laughing from him today. Maybe it was just because I was so overtired.
He always asks me what I think of my classmates drawings. So no, its not a real OMG I want him crush. Its more like a "I adore him" crush.

My eye is killing me. A strange hurting.. I hope im not going blind or anything. For some odd reason I feel like something bad is going to happen soon. Could this be it?

Our assignment for visual concepts was to draw our mechanical objects in 4 styles. Serene (aww, I miss you! totally thought of you when he said that one) Objectivity, Dramatic and Expressionism. My teacher says that my drawings are EXPRESSIONISTIC and that my sketch had passion in it. I think I just got a lil carried away with the shading. I tried to explain to him and the class that in life- Im either a SCAREDY CAT where im very controlled or I go "B*LLS DEEP". It was hard to convey that message without saying those words, I had to settle on saying that "I just went for it" not as potent, but whatever. I love how we all get into each others psyche during class critiquing. PS I stink at drawing. My sketches look like theyre straight out of a kindergarten class.

Im loving this song by ADELE called HOMETOWN GLORY. Its such a soulful song. She reminds me of AMY WINEHOUSE but less raspy and softer around the edges. Wow this song makes me want to cry. I think im a tad emo today. For good reason though. Im glad the day is over. Thank g its over....
