SELF PORTRAIT THURSDAY!
7.2.09
Not digging my face at the moment.
But I AM digging that bookshelf behind me.
I found it on the street near my apartment the other day.
It's exactly what I'd been looking for.
It's kinda old and dirty, but I need shelves and such to put my stuff on.
Sometimes I buy books.
Other times I save books from the garbage---books that I have no interest in reading at all.
(It's just hard for me to see things like that thrown away.)
And I'm into these figurines:
re: the t-shirt giveaway contest
I'm going to pull a name from a hat because I don't think I can randomly choose a winner. At all.
Some comments that I've gotten I just love so much and I'm like, "Aww, let's give him/her the shirt."
But this is supposed to be random.
And it shall be.
Self-portrait Thursday!
I've been up since 3AM sorta.
These were taken around 4:30 or so.
My ethics professor was wearing this shirt that had this print that really depressed me: it had these little baby angels on it, and it was light blue and pink---it was all very innocent-looking. I don't really know why it depressed me, though. But I think it might have been the thought that my professor made this conscious decision to buy this shirt with the little baby angels on it, a shirt that obviously belongs in kids room or something, and to wear it. She was wearing it while she was talking about abortion and rape and informal/formal authoritarianism and utilitarianism. It just depressed me. It reminded me sorta of 'Batman Returns' when Michelle Pfeiffer first goes crazy and she's going around her apartment, freaking out, tearing everything up. And she opens her closet and sees this t-shirt that has two kittens on it, and she takes a can of spray paint and sprays/blots the kittens out. It's such an innocent shirt, but it was made ugly. So, maybe my ethics professor figuratively spray painted her shirt black just like Catwoman. She made those little angels grow up real quick. I dunno, whatever.
