A drop in the ocean..


this song came on last night in the studio and made me feel like climbing a mountain. Props to my little sis, annie for getting me hooked on it.

Well, as shown by my lack of posts recently, this semester has already been one filled to the brim with lots of things. I've been so busy with architecture during the week and then even busier with homework and trying to balance a social life during the weekends. I can't believe I'm already on my second semester... what whatttttttt!?

Today it is 70 degrees and absolutely beautiful outside. Days like today make me LOVE clemson even more than I do (I know, hard to imagine). It seems like Clemson is either the most beautiful place in the world or it is terrible/cloudy/rainy. There seems to be no in between. But I think I'll take those rainy days in exchange for days like today. It makes me want to run down bowman field in a long skirt singing "the hills are alive" like Fraulein Maria from The Sound of Music. ahhhhh so beautiful.

Studio has been slowly killing me, and I'm only in my first semester of it! this is no good my friends, I need to toughen up or something! Hopefully, I'll get into the groove of things soon. I spent somewhere in the neighborhood of 8 hours in the studio yesterday...ridiculous! Right now, we are working on a project where we have to draft an object that has movement. Naturally, I chose a difficult object: a drawing compass. So now I'm left puzzled by this project and wondering if the whole semester is going to be like this... we shall see I suppose! 

In better news, Harcombe dining hall has stepped up their game. The meals have significantly improved this semester. The only complaint I have is the music. The emo-punk-rock-I'm-in-7th-grade-and-I'm-uncomfortable-with-myself  genre of music has got to go. I went to request something a tad lighter and pleasing to a larger crowd; however, the manager was busy talking with the sandwich ladies. So considering he was most likely giving them more pointers to make even more improvements, I quietly left the scene without speaking to him. no worries, I'll make my music request promptly if it doesn't change soon. I think he'll listen to me...I'm a valued customer. Actually, I think the dining hall might lose money on people like me because i'm there so much.......

I'm so excited right now. I have little to no homework this weekend (for the first time this semester), I'm listening to good music, I just got out of my last class for the day, and I have the whole weekend ahead of me.  Praise Jesus, life is so so so good. Now I'm off to pick out my outfit for tonight's festivities. Theme: 80s. Should be fun fun fun!

have a spectacular weekend, friends! 
I wish you all the happiness and adventures in the world!

“Be happy in the moment, that’s enough. Each moment is all we need, not more. Be happy now and if you show through your actions that you love others, including those who are poorer than you, you’ll give them happiness, too. It doesn’t take much –it can be just giving a smile. The world would be a much better place if everyone smiled more. So smile, be cheerful, be joyous that God loves you.” -Bl. Mother Teresa of Calcutta
