Almost Alright

So! I have been encouraged by a close friend to be more positive~ I'm definitely trying. Everything has been going wrong today...forgot flash drive at home..YAY. A bunch of other stupid things happened along the way, but, it doesn't matter. I'm gonna try to think positive thoughts.

Today was the last day of my World Architecture 2 class before the final. Today was the day where EVERYTHING clicked for me. It was just incredible how awesome it was. This class is badass, even though getting to this point was a pain. I feel like I've got a good grasp on Modernism and Post-Modernism...it's pretty interesting.

What else...OH! The pepper I mentioned in the last post...I have to model it on the comp...and then make a physical model! That means I have to go to the laser cutter at school. You have to make appointments if you need to use the laser cutter, and of course...my luck, they only had Sunday morning at 9:30 open for me. It's due the following Monday...so if I do anything wrong...I'm screwed...BUT let's stay positive.

Late night...early morning post

I was browsing through flickr the other day and happened to come across these photos by z@doune. His photos are so beautiful. These series of photos are of Tzizernakabert, a genocide memorial, in Yerevan, Armenia.

I'm writing from school~ It's 2:40 am....I'm sitting in the computer lab trying to render this stupid pepper model. School is done in around 2 weeks....I'm desperately hanging on hahaha. I CAN DO IT. but im so sleepy....zzzz ...zzzzzzzzzzz.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I'm hurt and dissapointed

So....where to begin. It's the 24th of April and every year on this day, Armenians around the world come together to commemorate the Armenian Genocide. Today I asked my professors if they could let me leave early after my review so I could join the thousands of people marching in the streets of Hollywood. We are all trying to make our voice heard. Unfortunately, we are all feeling very bitter and hurt at the moment. When Obama was running to be President, he had promised to recognize the Armenian Genocide. We all had hope that maybe this guy would be the one who would actually keep his word. But he did not.

PROMISES, PROMISES: Obama, Armenians and genocide

WASHINGTON (AP) — Barack Obama was unequivocal during the campaign: As president, he would recognize the nearly century-old massacre of Armenians in Turkey as genocide.

In breaking that promise Friday, the president did the same diplomatic tiptoeing he criticized the Bush administration for doing.

I don't really know what to say. I just expected change for once...I don't know how to explain myself. It's hard to describe the feeling of being denied...of constantly having to fight for this. I don't understand how it is possible to not acknowledge a genocide for political reasons. We are humans...and this was a crime against humanity. I am so deeply hurt.

Time for a New Bag

Meet my new bag that I got from Forever. I really like it~ I don't buy bags a lot because I get attached to one and carry it all the time...I also don't like taking everything out of one bag and putting it in another...haha...I dunno.

I have so much to do tomorrow....I am sad hahaha~ So much work to do for Monday...and then Tuesday...and then Wednesday...AHHHHH it never ends. I have less than three weeks left I believe...just gonna push through. PUSH THROUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
