I may or may not be cooking up a plan to create a tangible, wet darkroom produced, self portrait featuring what is inevitably soon to become my favorite necklace.
I then may or may not be sending it to the creator of said necklace.
I have three dilemmas:
Lighting. How and where can I set it…
As far as lighting goes, the art department does have a set of lights,...

when you pause for people to clap and they don’t clap and then it’s awkward
but then they clap when you aren’t waiting for it and then it’s awkward again

Peter Morville wrote Ambiant Findability, one of the text books for my Principles of Searching Class this past semester. I’ve been known for reading text books for fun since elementary school, but this was honestly one of the most fun, interesting, and readable I’ve ever encountered.
What is ambiant findability? According to the text:

In praise of public libraries – and librarians →
ignaciogallego:
‘Libraries are about people, not just books, and librarians are about more than just saying “Shhh.” They are also about saying: “Psst – have a look at this.” They are sifters, guides and co-creators of human connection. Most of all they are cultural curators, not of paper, but of human history and ideas.’
things that irk me:
customer service reps who look at the exact same information you are looking at and can provide no new information and won’t even tell you they can’t answer you what you’re asking
i used to work a help desk, i’m real good at telling people i don’t know but i’ll do my hardest to find out and if i can’t i told them that, too.
my brother
remember that awesome orange dress i shrunk this...
and that i bought a new one to replace it?
my mom shrunk the new one. which i’ve only had a chance to wear once since it’s winter.
wish moms didn’t mess with your stuff when you repeatedly ask them not to.

so I complain about this a lot
but I am overloading with classes and I work part-time (24 hours). So basically, I’m in class/at work for 36 hours a week and then do homework on top of that. It’s worth it cause I’ll graduate a semester early, but it has been really hectic/haven’t been able to actually see my friends really at all.
And I’m lookin’ at my grades and, while they haven’t...
