Today is the first day of Thanksgiving break. Tomorrow is the actual day of turkey here, and Friday is "Black Friday" because everyone is off work & it's retail mayhem. The stores open at 5 a.m., some of them are advertising ticket line-ups starting at 2 a.m. - America is weird.
I have been invited to dinner tomorrow & am heading down to Mississippi on Friday for a photo shoot (and hopefully leftovers). Before Monday I have a project list to complete that seems longer than my arm. I am also bird sitting a lovely parrot named Olive.
Sleep is for the weak.
The semester has be extremely busy - I have had more assigned reading this one semester than I have had in my three years at ACAD.
I'm not complaining - this semester has been amazing in ways I wasn't expecting. I have met great people and learned things I wouldn't have at home. There has been an inter-connectedness between the theory and practical things I have been learning that has impacted the course of my work and will continue to when I get home. The luxury of spending four months focusing on nothing but myself and my work has been a tremendous experience that I am grateful for.
None of this would have been possible without the support of my family and friends - thank you.
