Eeek
Realizing you missed more blogs then you had thought.. Uh oh time to catch up.
I’ve been so consumed with my homework load from my course and my audition preparation for schools next semester that I’ve fallen off the wagon a bit for my Gen Ed. I shall catch up on all that I missed! Oi vei so much to do so little time!
Creativity this week
This week has been different creativity wise. Typically I am creative through my music but this week I found myself doing a lot of art. In my course we are currently doing a props class. In my props class we are making a mask or a recreation of a photo of an elderly persons face. Mine turned out surprisingly well. I’ve never thought of myself as someone who is very inclined in art but I have made the recent discovery that mask making is a talent of mine. When I started working on it I had no idea how to proceed but then once I began I couldn’t stop. I truly got into that zone where I was focused on nothing else but that mask and every little contour of the face. After I had reproduced the face in clay I covered it in plaster, the next day I took the clay out of the mould and cleaned it out. The props students are filling our moulds this week so they are ready for us to paint come Thursday. I am very excited. I will post pictures soon of the process and the finished result!
Sickness
So I have been violently I’ll for about a week now… Fantastic. It started off as a silly little cold that i was just going to ignore but nope now it is a full on flu! Complete with vomiting every time i even think of food a permanently running nose and a fever that is melting all of the snow in Burlington. I even had to go to the hospital yesterday because my fever hit 104 and I was loosing my marbles and speaking nonsense to my sister. My fever has since been “controlled” I guess even though i still feel like I’m hosting my own personal sauna. I’ve done nothing but sleep and produce ridiculous amounts of mucus for the last few days and Im going stir crazy. The internet is only interesting for so long. Im sure I will be envious of the amount of sleep im getting now later on in the year, so im off to make my future self more jealous. Off to hibernate. Good Night world.
