This Week In Photos

Sabrina, Jillian & I

Getting serenaded by Valerie.

Free Time

I've had a pretty good amount of free time thus far, so I've been painting fairly often. Unfortunately, I've run out of space for my paintings in my room. So I've decided that if I can't paint for myself, I'll just have to paint for others. Right now I'm working on a Marilyn Monroe painting for Valerie. Up next I've got a bird on a branch for Jillian and Audrey Hepburn for Sabrina.

Urban Dictionary

When we moved into our dorms, we each had a sign on our door that said, "Never forget who you are or what you stand for." So, we decided to look our names up on urbandictionary.com, print our definitions, and post them on our doors under it. Here's the Urban Dictionary definition for Justine:

Where We're From

Last night in the common room we all got together to make a map of where we're from.  We all have ribbons that trace our family history and meet up here in San Diego. It's pretty cool to see how diverse our hall is. 

Chick-Fil-A

Jillian and I experienced the wonder of Chick-Fil-A sandwiches for the first time last week. Luckily there's no Chick-Fil-A within walking distance. They do however give out free ones at a lot of school events. You know who to blame for the freshman fifteen. 

Atlantis: Home of the Valiant

Last week we all worked together on decorating the common room of our res hall (Atlantis) to make it a little more fun and homey. I was commissioned to draw our official Home of the Valiant logo:

The Beach Round Two

We decided to go down to the beach again last night to see the red tides one more time before they went away. I found this video on Youtube today that does a pretty good job of capturing how amazing the glow of the waves looks at night.
