I know what I want for my 21st Birthday.
A bottle of Patron Platinum.
I don't care if I have to buy it myself, but I plan on treating my self to that $200 bottle, and pour drinks from its crystal bottle and sip all night.

this is new and different.
i dont think i have fixated on something so much.
nor have i returned to a subject as much as this.
i have no idea if this is supposed to happen.
could it just be the perfect amount of occurrences
that happened in such a specific order that it was meant to be?
is this the next logical step?
it could be the most amazing thing that could ever happen,
or just a complete waste of time.
im intrigued to where it could lead...

K, so leaving to L.A. in 8 days, can't wait for that.
then, i get back for a few days, and then i leave for san marcos.
then, i get back and hopefully only a little longer than a week, and ill go to NYC for a few days before i get back to school early.
::::::Warning: Boringness talk to follow:::::::::
I thought i would be able to go back with out going to the city, but i miss new york soooo much. It feels like home when im there. Since its probably going to be a short visit, im not going to allow much time for shopping but there i an exhibit at the whitney that i would love to go to, and of course see whats new at moma.
L.A. should be amazing, i miss amy sooooo much and i cant wait to go to the getty, i love exploring new museums, and i heard the just renovated (i am such a museum nerd). Its going to be so nice to see the beach and the ocean, and just to hang around Beverly hills and go shopping. Ughh, why cant i just split all my time between school, nyc and la? i think i would be the happiest person in the world if i could do that.
Sooo, I find myself more and more looking at grad schools. i still cant decide what the hell i want to do. So far, my options include going to a semi crappy school for my phD in art history, only because im limited since i dont know a foreign language well enough to write academic papers in, find a half way decent visual and cultural studies program, Just get my masters in something like art criticism, look more into sociology phD programs, or so far this is looking like the best option, get my phD in forensic of physical anthropology, and just keep my art history thing going as a hobby. i feel like i would have more options getting my phD in anthropology instead of limiting myself to the academic and institutional realm, or get to do really fun and random things in anthropology. And i cant completely rule out law school for art law. Either way, for any of them, i think i need to start slowly looking into my GRE's, cause i know if i start know, it wont actually happen until fall of next year anyway.
In other boringness news, i created a budget for the first time. I never thought i would even use the word budget, but shit, living in a house and paying rent and bills and groceries, i'm going to have stick with it. Its scary how much i cut back my clothing allowance, but if i cut back on groceries, i think i can make it work so both i and the people at banana republic and elsewhere will be happy. that, and credit card debt sucks. i got to stay away from them and cut my beautiful shiny pieces of plastic up. o, how i will miss thee. we had good times, but they bring out the worst in me. I will always have you, visa, and your counterpart, master card. And american express, i will always have a fond place in my heart for you. farewell sweetones.
o and i miss going to lectures already, i want to LEARN. Perhaps i'll re-read the communist manifesto again. maybe this time ill take notes. i wish we had half way decent libraries, i would love to just browse for once instead of having to read something for class. boo el paso. ok im over being a big nerd
::::::Back to regular stuff::::::
Music under the stars tomorrow, should be much fun. everyone should try to go.

Ok, so it has been forever since I last updated so lets see if I can recap the last half of the semester to this point.
So I saw a sitar concert, and decided I want to learn how to play the sitar, just for fun.
Saw the Guerilla Girls, and discovered I am a closet feminist and thats ok.
Went to a conference on sustainability and fair trade.
Went to another conference on the future of the archive with a bunch of grad students.
Attended the party in the abandoned subways of Rochester and met a whole bunch graffiti artists and experimental composers.
Celebrated 4:20 and D-Day(our last day of classes where everyone gets trashed)
Went to the Lilac Festival, where all the lilacs in a Rochester park bloom, big deal and lots of fun.
Moved my crap to my house for next semester, with some of the best roommates ill ever have.
Survived a graduate level class and hung out with phd students, gotta luv them.
This past semester i think i not only learned the most but had the most fun. Ill miss so many of the seniors, but time must move on. My original plans were to spend the summer in Houston, but fuck it. i cant stand it here, ill be getting to el paso on friday and not soon enough. I have to find a job to pay the bills and pay rent, so if anyone knows of a place hiring, i would greatly appreciate a hook up. Also, i will be in the need of a good piercer if anyone could recommend one, i am in middle of stretching my lobes i am at a 6 gauge and would like to get to a 2 by the end of the summer. Anyway, ill soon see everyone at the end of the week.

New List of Long Term Goals:
-Raise my gpa to above a 3.5
-Finish with my Art History major and do Art New York in NYC next Spring
-Start on my Anthropology Double Major
-Do more school activities to get into take 5 (get 5th year of tuition free to study anything) and focus on Religion of a year.
-Get into Grad-School for my masters (either School of Visual Arts in Manhattan, Fashion institute of Technology, or Columbia) in Arts Administration or Art Criticism
-Get my PhD in Art History and or Visual and Cultural Studies or possibly Anthropology ( I really want to go to UCLA or USC for this, I definately will need to go to the west coast of spending so much time on the East Coast.
Total Years Projected spent in school: 10
Total Cost for my projected education: apporx. $375,000
(ha, that makes me want to stay in school forever)
What I want to do with all this schooling, i don't know, but i love going to school.
I think I just want to be an academic. Can I just write text books used for art history classes and attend gallery openings for a living?
Short term goals:
Survive the rest of this semester.
Get a job at Aveda for the summer (half done, i just need to fill out the app)
This is what keeps me up late at night...

i just decided today, i really want to go to California for grad school. I really want to live in LA.
I want to be where there are more brown people, aka beaners, mexicans, chicanos etc.
LA should work quite well, I refuse to do TX anymore, and I don't want to go to Miami
LA is a center for the arts too.
I'll just go back and fourth between LA and NY every so often, because I love the city too.
Ok, time for sleep.
^all that, completely random.

So i didn't get my internship, that kinda sux. I could have really used the money and i really wouldn't have minded working at the hmfa.
I really want to go to europe. I know im missing out and it would be so useful for school.
i cant decide if i want to go with someone or by myself, which i think would be a lot of fun too.
i found out i can go to amsterdam for a week for less than 1500, think im going to do it one day, one day soon...

so taking 20 hours is pretty much kicking my ass. somehow i seem to barely be surviving, but i have actually been spending every waking moment in the library or in class or workshops, or recitations or labs or random lectures or something. As much as i hate it, i love. I love being able to participate in rational critical debate and throw out academic names left and right and discuss marxist theory and everything else intellectual.
I also have discovered my passion for grad students. college students are overrated. If your really want to discuss deep things, grad students is where its at :)
Springbreak will consist of several days in NYC, ( i couldn't resist not spending more time there, or as i like to say, my future home) and then going down to houston for the last part of the week. I get the best of both worlds, and hopefully by then things will warm up. Im tired of walking to class in two to three feet of snow and it getting to -17 at night.
I am also considering new business opportunites, based on doing community service ;)
Her, not what i was expecting, but i am delighted things are happening.

Wow, so its been like a long time since i've updated.
Ummm, so second semester is going well. I think i may kill myself a little by taking 20 hours, but so far so good. My classes are so much fun, the only one that sucks if fucking comp sci. intro to programming. i could care less about computer shit.
i parted with a lot of my clothes to make room for new stuff. it was sad, i do have to say, i shed a tear or two.
I am currently on verge of getting sick/sick but not wanting to admit it. Is it bad that i take my cold medicine with a glass of red wine?
still have no idea what to do for spring break. options include: toronto, new york city (again), austin/houston, tennessee (random, yes i know but it is an option), a cruise, chicago or nothing. hmmm, what to do.
my birthday came and went, now i just feel old.
I have recently been contemplating getting plugs, nothing larger than a 4 or 2 gauge. more to think about.
time for rest.

Tonight was o so much fun. I got to say my last few good byes.
Now I'm packing and got to see the end of October sky and now am watching fools rush in, two of my favorite movies.
I really have a thing for selma hayek, she is probably the most perfect female specimen. :)

so i'm watching queen of the damned. fucking love this movie. anne rice writes some incredibly erotic stuff.
went to barnes and noble tonight. I'm excited, I bought a little notebook to take everywhere with me to make notes, especially in museums and galleries.
then it was off to the porn shop. I swear, the time i go is when im in el paso, that and there are so many of them here, its most amusing to see all the old perverted guys that go in there.
bad ass coffee was delicious.
I think of the possibilities with her, but I know it could never work. I just want her to be happy, I just wish I could be the answer.

ok, I am going to turn 20 in 9 days. I think I am ready for it.
I have a new life ambition. In addition to being a curator for a period in my life, my dream job would be working at LVMH, aka Louis Vuitton-Moet-Hennessy Corp. I WANT this. They are the epitome of fashion, style, and luxury.
I have otherwise been reading old magazines and watching lots of movies. I am ready to get back to classes. I feel so intellectually unstimulated.
I also wish I had money to buy paints. I only brought my brushes with me and are feeling rather creative lately.
