cons:

• woke up this morning to find a huge puddle of water coming from our heater/ac unit 
• i made something that i actually loathe
• making art kinda sucks right now 
• i don’t know where my drawing class sketchbook is
• i have six seven?  sketchbooks i have to simultaneously work in 
• all i want to do is skype with my sister

pros:

• before today, i haven’t made anything i actually loathe since i got here
• hating everything i make usually means i’m on the edge of some major breakthrough. plateaus, you guys.
• talking heads
• my drawing teacher told me he really loved what i was doing for a gesture in class today. it was one of those things where i wondered if everything i do is mediocre because he hadn’t talked to me for a couple of hours and he pulled me kind of aside and said i was doing a good job.
• it’s 60 degrees and i ate lunch outside by myself and was completely happy with it
• i’m seeing future islands, bamboo, and weekends soooonnnn (and it’s free)

weird grey area:

• having your teacher tell you you’re doing a good job and being compelled to cry
• deciding mentioning all of this was a good idea. the Things I Do So My Parents (Who Do Read This, P.S.) Can Worry About Me For No Good Reason
