   Bah!


My 3-D design teacher has given us a project that hurts my very soul, for we must destroy a book in order to complete it. The bibliophile in me weeps profusely. We have to use a book as the base for a sculpture that depicts a scene or character from said book. This involves gluing the pages together and drilling holes into it. Unfortunately for me, the only way I’ll be able to do this is to find a copy of a book I already have. I went on a mission to some thrift stores and I found some nice books for myself as well as a copy of “The Secret Garden”, a book I already own. I though my trip was therefore a success and I went home quite pleased. Of course, as soon as I returned home, I made the dire mistake of opening the book and I discovered that it was very beautifully illustrated, and the front cover had an inscription dated from 1990. Apparently it was a gift to a child. So now I cannot bring myself to drill holes into it. I had to go to a regular bookstore and purchase another copy of the same book, because I still had my heart set on using that theme for my sculpture *sigh* I think I am now legally insane or something. I blame homework.

-Quotation of the Day-
Professor: “Does anyone know why newspapers use the informal form?”
Student: “Because there’s no need to be polite?”
Professor: “Exactly, because you don’t know who’s reading. It could be Martha Stewart, it could be Martha Stewart’s parole officer, you just don’t know.”
