kerielle: First Day

First Day

Don't worry, this post will only happen once this semester because this time I have all my classes on one day. Yee-haw. Classes: New Testament Part 1, Modern Art, American Art, Japanese Culture, French Reading. Deceptively simple semester...but a lot of BUSY work. I think it will be good, if I can stay on top of it. At the very least, I'm very interested in my subjects and classes and I've got some good friends in each.

Now, remember that time that I said I frequently have punny/random observations throughout my day and can't remember them when I get home? I wrote them down today. So here they are:

1) Campus is probably 5 times more crowded the first week of classes than any other time of year.
2) Although they are awfully scarce, male art history majors know how to dress FIIIIINE.
3) If you harbor a secret wish that the cute boy walking in front of you is in your next class, he will be, but he will definitely be married.
4) Japanese culture = not strictly art history majors = cute boys.
5) Japanese culture boys = cocky and immature = un-datable.
6) Some classes are worth taking for the people.

No pique-a-chores today. Lo siento. Though I did carry my camera! New Year's Res? Check.

Also, I walked to school today. It was exhilarating. And cold. The end.

On Fashion

"I know it sounds corny, but to me, fashion is a form of art...[T]hat's strictly what I find it: it's not necessarily about simply looking "good" or "chic". The designers that inspire me don't focus on designing clothes just to be cloths; the looks they design are art! WEARABLE art, which is more fun that pretty paintings in a museum that you can't touch. My ignorance aside, it really bothers me when silly ideas like "Fashion Do's and Don't's" and "Fashion Police" are established, because that takes all the fun out of putting together an outfit. In my opinion, the most interesting fashion is the Anti-Fashion. No rules, no restrictions, no normalcy, no pleasing anyone ... It's not how cute an outfit is, it's what it seems to reflect: a personality, a story."

"Women, wear what you love. That's all I can say. That's my motto. It's nice to have on a nice suit, but it's a lot nicer to change a generation in terms of their health. It's a lot ... better use of my time to focus on rallying this country around our military families. I mean, there's so much that I hope to do in this role that makes a difference in people's lives."

On Humor

"Humor is vital. We definitely have a tendency to take ourselves way too seriously. [T]hat stems from a really sweet sincerity of people who are trying too hard to be good and who always want to be better. But in our quest for improvement we often forget to laugh, which is easy to do, since we're so busy. But laughter is important to your sanity and to your health. Marjorie Hinckley said, 'The only way to get through life is to laugh your way through it. You either have to laugh your way through it. You either have to laugh or cry. I prefer laughing. Crying gives me a headache.' "
