Fall ain't coming fast enough.

Hi y'all.

Super delayed entry. My apologies. Fall semester has started, but the weather has not. I just checked the weather report tomorrow and it's going to be 90 degrees. Good lord. Where is my cooling autumn breeze? I want it. Now.

As for school, this is probably my busiest semester. But I kind of like it. I also got the internship that I mentioned aforehand in the previous enties...so...yay for moi! Though I'd really love to get a source of income, a real paying job would be nice. Just spending some odds and ends on my art supplies is also fueling this want.

Back-tracking, some of the most prominent events might include the LA fires that had been spreading like mad throughout the course of a few days. I even woke up to find my car covered in ash one morning. It was ridiculous.

(And here is the view from PCC, you can see all the smoke/smog, covering up the skies.)


( And here is the lovely apocalyptic sky from the view of the parking lot. No photoshop. 
Though my camera did exaggerate the deathly colors)


(Last, but not least, here is a personal close-up of the ash cloud that floated ominously over the mountains for days. Photo is courtesy of my frriend, who was flying at the moment, and managed to snap a shot of it as he was on the way to NY. It's ridiculous, isn't it? Almost ridiculously lovely.)

 After that was over with, and the air slightly clearer (as clear as air can get here), life's hectic doings continued. Recently it's been, stress, school, internship, stress, homework, school, school, oh dear god this was due?, internship, school, omg-it's-Sunday-finally-my-one-day-of-freedom, school. Repeat the process and mix and match.

I do bring a few more photos from my lasting days of summer and first week of school though, since the first week is always the least demanding.


(My friend dead and buried 6ft. under a pile of pillows. Rest in peace, dearie)



(I think this was...a little earlier in the summer? I can't remember. But I adore the strangeness of how the image came out.
Flash added to the picture for once instead of killing it)
I also hit the monthly flea market at school...didn't really find stuff to my fancy, but I did buy this tiny gold fan that's fold-able and everything. Quite quaint. It has cranes etched onto one side, and the other a Chinese dragon.




 (And by tiny, I do mean tiny. I don't have particularly large hands, infact, people tend to tell me of how small my hands are, and this fan is tiny between my fingertips!) 



Well, that's pretty much all for now. My camera also happened to break last night. -_- I don't even know how it happened...!!! It was working perfectly fine just before and then all of a sudden the lens refused to retract, and now it's permanently bulky and incapable of taking any pictures. Joy.

Well, onward to the assignments due tomorrow!

Enjoy your life with vigor for me,
~ CH

The Beginning of Fall in NY

Hi there! This is Su. And this is going to be my first post for this week. I am not as good of a writer as my friend Ch ^_^;;  and I tend not to be clear on what I write or explain. I haven't written anything or free blogged since the beginning of last summer (it ended already thank goodness). So to save you from boredom and your pet peeves I'm going to write you a short blog, a love song <3 (jk Lol). Not because I'm lazy (trust me, I have sooo many things I want to tell you about being a newb in a town where you have to know your hood) it's because, first of all, it's my first post. I don't want to bore you with the long introduction about myself, my school, and ny, second, because it's freakin midnight already and I have to wake up at 6 am tomorrow for my wonderful sketching class of gothic sway and s-curve nudes, and third, probably my post will be mostly about me whining and complaining that will increase your annoyance and hatred towards me to 10. Yeah I'm a pessimist. I think for the worst. I imagine people @#%$%^& me up because I bombed this site with my ridiculous bsing. I imagine people #%#$%$& in the comment box because I'm sensoring the words because I cannot think of any words to insert there (use your imagination).That's what being an artist is all about. You have to think for the worst possible critisicm and outcomes that will be thrown at you. Nothing will always go your way. All you have to do is hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Because that's when you can suck it up and throw it back at their face and show them that you're one hardcore bi@#$%h.
Well simple to say than done. It's your choice and decision. Don't wait for someone to choose it for you.

Okay.. What I just said there.. wasn't me @__@ I was influenced by this evil guy who keeps calling me a @#$%& and said that I'm fat because I eat cake everyday. A CAKE A DAY! Thats not a lot. I am eating 'sparingly' just to let you guys know. LoL
Nah I'm just kidding Haha XD He's not "that" evil. He's my closest friend so far in Pratt Institute, my art school that I'm currently attending. I know it has only been a week or two, but I guess there are friends that are made right just for you naturally. In my case, probably the talkative and sarcastic kind of people is what I'm more compatible with. Oddly. There are exceptions ;)
So please don't kill me >_
Moving on.
I know I'm supposed to post some kind of pictures. I mean proably to you guys words are boring, that you need some visual things to keep you alive and interested. I hate to break it to you.. but.... I've been dumped, so all the pictures turned pitch black as they burned with my dark hatred towards the world, forever gone even from the face of netherland. They can feel my pain!
Back to reality. Actually, I'm too lazy. I thing I prefer giving you guys some bloodshots on that lovely eyes than to wait another hour to choose the pictures and another hour to upload them. See.. An eye for an eye.

Actually I just realized that I ran out of time.. It's 1 am already!! Gahhh @_@! I need to go to sleep now. Love to chat and everything else, but my schedule is tight and being a fashion major is something worth giving your leisure time for a later time. Oh no no, I love all of you who read this blog with all my heart, but life is just to short to stick with one. LoL just kidding. I'll continue this some time later. I'm going to talk how beautiful my art campus is and how I can convinced you that this school is just not what it seems, being in Brooklyn and all. So bye bye ~Love Su.
