I have the window open today. The breeze is making the sheers fly. It's only cold if you're sitting still, though. Walking to Crites Hall this morning felt like an epic adventure (but it might have had something to do with the fact that I was five minutes late and rushing against time). I've nicknamed those long, crumbling brick buildings I pass on the way the Diagon Buildings. It seems fitting, considering one of them has crumbled in what I am almost positive is the Diagon Alley formation. With all the wild greenery growing over them, they're so beautiful. Even though it's a waste of space, I still think it's a shame they're tearing it all down. I wish I could get past that chainlink fence to get some photographs first, but I'm more likely to be hit by a SCAD bus. Ha-dee-ha-ha.
I took most of the photographs out of the frames this morning. I thought they would make me smile but they've become depressing. It seems reasonable to note that staring at empty photograph frames is an odd sensation. I don't even want to take pictures to put in them. I want to fill them with dried leaves or flowers or glitter. Anything that isn't a statement about a personal life down the drain.
While I was walking back from lunch today, I stopped and sat in the shade on the steps for a few minutes, people-and-cloud watching. And, lo and behold, that little gray feral cat sprang up beside me. She's beautiful, with big, vibrant green eyes. I didn't move to pet her this time. I just sat there staring back at her.
What I Loved Today: Church bells at noon. Shady steps. Green trees. Psychology doodles. Makeshift friends. Not making my bed. Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. The final sketches for my first Drawing project.
p.s. HP5 promo pictures this morning. Amazing. Fantastic. So excited!
