My New Roommate?

Looks like this house cricket decided to live with me this winter! I don't mind she stays, if she can find some food in my room and survive. I'm okay to live with insects as long as they don't bother me.

Happy Birthday from Shpongleland


Happy 16th birthday! My sweet, artist-will-be sister!
I hope you've arrived the US safely and enjoy your first four days in Seattle! I'll see you soon!

Will you eat LSD's cake?

P. S. Some parts of the cake are supposed to be bright yellow, but somehow the scanner doesn't recognize it. I can show you the original pic in Seattle.

Bird in Space

I don't usually appreciate the sculptures we went through in art history class, but Brancusi's Bird in Space really caught my eyes. It's such a beautiful sculpture!

People debate for a long time whether Bird in Space looks like a bird. For me, it represents the concept of a bird rather than the bird itself. Well, it's abstraction!

Arms

I really shouldn't be drawing because I had much to do, but I did.
Little was done in this afternoon. I guess I'm just sick of studying.
I felt like drawing this although I don't even know if it's needed ...

It's the arms of an ancient family with good tradition.
This is probably passed down from Medieval or so.


Would the non-psychedelic members have objection?
I know it's lame. The shapes should probably be put more tightly together. If I've got better ideas I might change some parts and the words later.

P. S. The word "veritas" might be more appropriate instead of "veri".

微波爐 LOL

(from Facebook)

今天突然想把微波爐換個位置,這 . . . . . 為什麼有種好想打它的衝動!!!

化學第三次期中考

今天一接到化學考卷,因為這次忙到沒空好好讀書,跟預期的一樣,慘了,64分,還好沒有不及格。
教授公佈,平均是51,沒有人達到80分,還有不知那位仁兄或仁姊只有17分。
突然覺得,嗯 ... 好像64分也不錯嘛!

教授問什麼地方最難,同學說mechanism和synthesis。
教授說,嗯,沒錯,是很難。喜歡嗎?不喜歡你有得受了,因為下半學期的有機化學全都在教mechanism跟synthesis!

Review on Wassily Kandinsky’s Black Triangle

Just some parts from my 5-page-long art history final paper. Taking the components of the painting apart, I felt like studying the anatomy of an organism. I should have started it a few weeks ago, however finished it in the last day. Whether it's good writing or junk, it's done now! Consider how much time I put in, I'm satisfied. Hope prof. MC will like it.

Best Logic Question Ever

 "If I ate myself would I become twice as big or disappear completely?"

 Saw it somewhere on Tumblr. They should totally teach this in philosophy class!

Weary

I just came back from the last organic chemistry midterm. It's such a tough week for me so I haven't been updating my blog. Broke my record again. There was a time I was awake for 22 hours, going to classes and studying.
