West Wing opening credits (the link is to the season 3 version) http://youtu.be/Dmp1sGsHOAg
The West Wing is one of my all time favorite TV shows. This opening credits, the visuals and the music by W.G. "Snuffy" Walden, give me goosebumps and tear up without fail.

september eighth two thousand and ten
Today I ... went to Duzan's last night with P, shared a sandwich and strawberry-kiwi snapple drink. went to bed around 1ish am. got up at 7 am. each doing our thing until 9:40 am when I ran out the door for my interview. (two best morning online finds? Ryan Jones (one of my OSU peeps!) is going to be in Antigua for 2 years as his Peace Corps stint, and he is keeping a blog... which reminds me, gotta find link to Tony Wong's blog again... AND that ^Elmo made an open call on youtube^ to submit a question - and he will answer some of them!)
had my interview from 11 am-noon (was there by like 10:40! yay!). was out until 2ish. went 34th street (I guess 34th/penn station on the C or B?) on the way home and ended up in herald square. got mickey d's ice cream cone, also did this thing kraft was doing about feeding america - i don't know, got some free kraft coupons and food. from 2ish-3:30ish was by myself at apartment/P's place, eating lunch and the like. gathering my things in backpack. etc.
330ish-5:23 pm was with P. in Peter G's convertible to Brooklyn. Then hoping on the L to ?8th Ave then the B (C? something?) to Penn Station-34th Street. Until we found the line for P to catch the train (buy his ticket) to Newark airport. I went and got myself blood orange (and a 1/4 mango) sorbet in the row of Penn Station, also the last missing piece of ^burts bees lip balm^ (the regular beeswax is classic. love pomegranate, got the mango recently but yet to use, now at the duane reade got the acai berry (rejuvenating)! have never seen but would like to try ^Res-Q^).
Went to Herald Square.. over to the "park" areas and sat down and ate my stuff. I saw a group of three gals, two with red hair, one with really bright/bold (and pretty) red hair.. and I wondered if it was ^@karahaupt^. so i did a ^tweet^ about it. oh and somewhere around here got a pumpkin & cream cheese muffin from starbucks (and no, did not eat it-will tomorrow in little bits over the day. I had to use the bathroom and that was what I could find)
I then went to Canal Street (obviously going to Chinatown). Wandered my way (by foot) to Grand Street, but fruit market places were closed. Somehow in Chinatown I thought I put $10 (two $5) in my pocket, but ended up with only one when I got to my dinner place. So I got dumplings (pork&cabbage-8-boiled)... & then right before subway I got milk tea (with boba bubbles, and kiwi flavor). Hopped on the subway, rode home eating dumplings and drinking my tea. waited for a longggg (well it seemed long) time for the m60, but did get it, and rode it home.
tonight i am chatting on twitter/gmail... reading my twitter feed, with a bit of tumblr thrown in, a bit of google reader, getting directions for saturday, loving ^THIS^ post .. and omg, you can get so so lost at the pretty via the Mad Men Casting Call Contest ^website^. L&O:UK (which might just be my second favorite L&O after the original. L&O CI and SVU have had their moments off/on over the years, and LOLA is too early to tell) is BACK with season 3 starting tomorrow.. and I can't help but be a tiny bit excited. :)
oh and in random celeb news..super super minor (but still "aw, MAN..")... LFO's (of that 1999 pop song "Summer Girls") lead singer, Rich Cronin, died today of a battle with leukemia. He was 35 years old. (via ^TMZ^)

TWO Sesame Street

..season 41 press kit
THREE Abdi/Work of Art ...the winning exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum will be opening tomorrow, August 14 and there through October 17. (see here)
I am so happy that my favorites; Peregrine, Miles, and Abdi were the final three. I loved the story, passion, and energy from Miles's work, but it was a bit too abstract at the end for me. Peregrine had my favorite - the throwing up drawings, the whimsical feel, the ponies - extensions of her winning piece from a previous week, the stunning baby fawn piece. Abdi really amazed me in his final piece of the show (the nature challenge). I liked his stuff early on, but more recently his work had been sub-par. It was nice to see him shine in the end, I love the concept and vision of his work and I look forward to seeing in person at least once (if not a few times) the whole package live/in person during his two months stint at the museum.
Oh, and I follow Peregrine's blog and twitter (website - birdies panties ), Abdi's blog and twitter, Miles's website along with Nicole's twitter and various other folks (Jaime Lynn website). - I hope there is a season 2! This is the best thing on Bravo since my other reality show love, Project Runway!!

8 things list..the current meme
8 Things I Am Looking Forward To:
* chatting tonight on The Spark challenge blog, although the chat starts at 8 pm my time (7 pm CST/1 am for miss kim smith in england)... and I usually get home around 9 pm, so hopefully people will still be around! // the new Use Your Type prompt is being posted today :)
* getting my grades back on my midterms (EU class tonight, 559 on monday, and I take my 245 one tomorrow, so probably get it back on monday)
* going grocery shopping with my brother tomorrow :) (wednesdays are our usual day, when I get home around 6 pm from school)
* coming up with something awesome/making it/having fun with the latest Work Your Soul challenge which is EMBROIDERY *swoon at kim's things already :)* http://work-your-soul.blogspot.com/2009/04/fall-in-love-all-over-again.html
* finishing my mini book/art journal/project thing which I submitted to challenge blogs Work Your Soul (analog photos), The Art is Found (green grass), and The Spark (favorite color combo)
* general CRAFT/ART TIME! Just got latest issue of Cloth Paper Scissors yesterday plus have a few other misc craft/art magazines.. and projects in progress and ideas for new ones/things to try and etc. :)
* watching tv shows I'm behind on: America's Next Top Model, L&O:CI, Castle, House, Jon + Kate Plus Eight, and whatever else is on the TV recording things..
* books/magazines coming out this year... Sara Fanelli (I Think, Therefore I am), Amy Karol's new sewing/craft book, Sew Somerset Summer and Autumn issues, Print Making + Mixed Media (out August I think?) and probably others I'm forgeting..
(I wish I had this on my list, not just Janel's! * RVA Craft weekend AND * Meeting blog friends this weekend)
8 Things I Did Yesterday:
* because of the beautiful weather..high of 80s I think?..I wore my bright pink 'live. laugh. love.' shirt and my sky blue corderoy skirt and my sky blue sneakers
* had my 8:30 am class (polisci 245) ..jason is a good teacher (entertaining, interesting, engaging, passionate, laid-back, etc). and mark always hooks me up with print outs of the powerpoint slides for the day. :)
* 559 midterm (10:30 am-2 pm in Professor Thompson's office)
* freaked out/cramped my left hand (writing almost non stop from 8:30 am-2 pm does that to ya.. that's 5 1/2 hours!)
* went to my favorite thrift/vintage stores (one the general kind, one the clothing kind)
* got my favorite evening bus driver on the express bus (i wish i knew his name)
* took the evening off because I worked so hard (my brain hurt, my hand hurt, tired, dehydrated from the hot weather, etc.)
* watched last week's new episode of Castle (the show is kind of cliche, but nathan fillion had me after "firefly")
8 Things I Wish I Could do:
* Motivate myself more (stop playing spider solitare for one!)
* crochet, sew my own clothes, book binding, encaustic, paint on stretched canvas, and a million other crafty/arty things
* relax
* french knots (I try and I just don't get it) -- on Janel's list but I have to keep this because I totally agree!
* win some bloggy giveaways/RAKs/challenge blogs/etc.
* have more penpals (send letters, postcards, art supplies, handmade items, etc.)
* not be so clumsy/out of balance/etc. bugs bite me. i bruise easily. etc. (but i do like scars, don't get me wrong)
*
8 Shows I Watch:
* Law & Order franchise (original flavor, Special Victims Unit, and Criminal Intent)
* Project Runway (season 5 on Lifetime starts in August)
* America's Next Top Model (currently in cycle 12)

* Springfield, MO (meet Elsie, Rachel, Jeremy, etc. and get Janel over there too..)

8 random facts about me
* I don't usually like animals, but Tinker (past) and Shelley (current) family dogs I do like. :)
* when I was a kid I wanted to be: an author, a mailman, and "someone who names paint colors"
* I never cared for fish (besides fish sticks which doesn't count!) until late 2007
* I love mixing my food together..sometimes that makes awfully interesting combos. :)
* I'm sensitive/dislike loud noises (crowds of people, fireworks, etc)
* I like the smell of my earwax.
* I love people's handwriting
* I "get emotional/tear up" (if not start crying/sobbing) everytime I hear the west wing theme music. *sigh*
* almost all of my google blog reader is craft/art/inspiration/etc. type blogs and sites. (well besides my folder for current events/UN/IR/etc. that I still need to get in the habit of reading)... however SO@24 is my entertainment/guy's perspective/and i'm not sure how else to quite to describe it..I can't remember how or when I found it, but I've been a reader of it since at least earlier this year, if not longer.
* chatting tonight on The Spark challenge blog, although the chat starts at 8 pm my time (7 pm CST/1 am for miss kim smith in england)... and I usually get home around 9 pm, so hopefully people will still be around! // the new Use Your Type prompt is being posted today :)
* getting my grades back on my midterms (EU class tonight, 559 on monday, and I take my 245 one tomorrow, so probably get it back on monday)
* going grocery shopping with my brother tomorrow :) (wednesdays are our usual day, when I get home around 6 pm from school)
* coming up with something awesome/making it/having fun with the latest Work Your Soul challenge which is EMBROIDERY *swoon at kim's things already :)* http://work-your-soul.blogspot.com/2009/04/fall-in-love-all-over-again.html

* books/magazines coming out this year... Sara Fanelli (I Think, Therefore I am), Amy Karol's new sewing/craft book, Sew Somerset Summer and Autumn issues, Print Making + Mixed Media (out August I think?) and probably others I'm forgeting..
(I wish I had this on my list, not just Janel's! * RVA Craft weekend AND * Meeting blog friends this weekend)
8 Things I Did Yesterday:
* because of the beautiful weather..high of 80s I think?..I wore my bright pink 'live. laugh. love.' shirt and my sky blue corderoy skirt and my sky blue sneakers
* had my 8:30 am class (polisci 245) ..jason is a good teacher (entertaining, interesting, engaging, passionate, laid-back, etc). and mark always hooks me up with print outs of the powerpoint slides for the day. :)
* 559 midterm (10:30 am-2 pm in Professor Thompson's office)

* went to my favorite thrift/vintage stores (one the general kind, one the clothing kind)
* got my favorite evening bus driver on the express bus (i wish i knew his name)
* took the evening off because I worked so hard (my brain hurt, my hand hurt, tired, dehydrated from the hot weather, etc.)
* watched last week's new episode of Castle (the show is kind of cliche, but nathan fillion had me after "firefly")
8 Things I Wish I Could do:
* Motivate myself more (stop playing spider solitare for one!)
* crochet, sew my own clothes, book binding, encaustic, paint on stretched canvas, and a million other crafty/arty things
* relax
* french knots (I try and I just don't get it) -- on Janel's list but I have to keep this because I totally agree!
* win some bloggy giveaways/RAKs/challenge blogs/etc.
* have more penpals (send letters, postcards, art supplies, handmade items, etc.)
* not be so clumsy/out of balance/etc. bugs bite me. i bruise easily. etc. (but i do like scars, don't get me wrong)
*
8 Shows I Watch:
* Law & Order franchise (original flavor, Special Victims Unit, and Criminal Intent)
* Project Runway (season 5 on Lifetime starts in August)

waiting anxiously..then it arrives so quietly, it is hard to notice.
Of course I didn't check my school email since sunday or something.. and my teacher emailed last night we weren't having class (my 1130-118 one) because so many people were going to be watching the inauguration. So I woke up at 9 am (and have to leave by 9:15 am), so I was running out the door..wasn't anywhere near a computer before arriving to class.
So I was so busy printing things out, checking my email, reading my blogs, now I don't think I have time for McDonald's before class! Meep!
Got class 330-520 pm.. (EALL675), then 6 pm Dr. Gordon appointment, then go home and do homework/eat/craft (and hopefully get to use TV to watch Obama stuff, but I doubt it).
I can't wait for all the magazine covers/articles/etc. I'm getting in the mail sometime. ;) *hint, hint*
(all below was gathered and was to be placed on one of my other blogs, but I don't have the time...)
Right now I am on the look out for any photos depicts brain waves, heart waves, sleep waves...

the morning after: President Barack Obama
I am literately, like, spinning.
My mind, body, soul... in my head... just. WOW.
I spent so much time lately in the past 6 weeks or so... not to mention afternoons of weds, thurs, fri, (oct 30/31 nov 1) most of sun, mon, tues, weds (nov 4 through 7)... all for President Obama. :) I had so much fun getting out there promoting/supporting a man who has inspired me & so many others... I got to know my school better (like campus area) and meet lots of students (which isn't easy, since I am not an outgoing person). While I enjoyed every second I spent, this past week was awesome. Last night (830am-1015 pm) and today (1030am-4 pm, cleaning up)...*sigh* I couldn't ask for better cohorts. I am going to miss all of those from other states-California, New York, D.C., etc. who came here just to give their time, energy, and spirit.
I'm also super proud of my dad, because he spent time on monday & tuesday volunteeering (plus he got me stickers, a full sheet..and one that I hadn't seen/didn't have! ;))... today cleaning I got some gift cards, posters, buttons, stickers, etc. (not like I didn't already have a bunch of stuff). And yes, I'm a bit materialistic. Ah well.
I am now with a headache. It is hard to go back down to the ground. Reality has to strike back, and I keep feeling like I am aimlessly going around. I am lost and going "What am I suppose to do with my life now?" :)

Six Strands Sweets: Lemonade, Strawberry Banana, Lemon Meringue, Cherries Jubilee
Heart of Darkness, Cupid's Heart, Love is in the Square (urban threads)
=============
How is it possible to expect that mankind will take advice when they will not so much as take warning. Jonathan Swift (1667-1745)
The burning of rebellious thoughts in the little breast, of internal hatred and opposition, could not long go on without slight whiffs of external smoke, such as mark the course of subterranean fire. Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896)
A masterpiece is something said once and for all, stated, finished, so that it's there complete in the mind, if only at the back.
Virginia Woolf (1882-1941)
A rockin' nugget of writing I found in my yahoo emails from fall 2006: You see, Fassbinder is excellent at expressing himself, making each of his films “autobiographical” in terms of giving another side of him. This film is of course no exception. What I do, however, believe is distinct about this film is many elements of Merchant aren’t always noticeable unless you scrutinize carefully, and the individual nuances cumulate into a visual expression only of Fassbinder’s proportions.

What I do, however, believe is distinct about this film is many elements of Merchant aren’t always noticeable unless you scrutinize carefully, and the individual nuances cumulate into a visual expression only of Fassbinder’s proportions.
