I&#8217;ve completed a lot of schoolwork since last post, and that&#8217;s pretty much about it. Not much else happened, which is probably for the better.<\/p>\n<p>Last Wednesday I went to the AGO with some friends to visit the Warhol exhibit (since I had free tickets). It was underwhelming and I guess I should have expected that considering this is a large contemporary art gallery and the audience is the general public, not pretentious art\/art history students. Anyway, I had a good time regardless. Even if the exhibit itself wasn&#8217;t great (mostly regarding the wall labels and presentation), I enjoyed getting to see, in-person, the pieces we&#8217;ve been discussing since first year. Like, this piece is something someone over half a century ago created, pored over. The work itself has been through more, seen more than I can imagine. People I&#8217;ve read about in books have touched it, contributed to it, inspired it. All that, but mostly the act of creation. I&#8217;ve tried to create things before, too. What a fascinating feeling.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m still not the biggest Warhol fan, but it was cool. I wanted to see the Matthew Wong exhibit, but ran out of time since I had class after. I got an iced coffee and went to my thesis class (quintessential uni art student?). I was quite annoying, and probably talked too much. I have no grasp on what is an appropriate amount of talking and what is an appropriate amount of silence (internally), since to me it seems as if I never shut up. Maybe other people think I&#8217;m okay. I <em>have<\/em> made an enemy already, which is kind of sad (for me). Sometimes I&#8217;m aware I come a bit rude, but it&#8217;s hard to have time for tact when the point of the discussion is progress and criticism. So&#8230; I guess&#8230; it&#8217;s fine?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway. I&#8217;ll end this post around here, since I have other things I should be writing instead. School has been very stressful, in part because I am 100% more extra than before&#8230; I mentioned it before in the last post, but I am having fun, finally, and I want to do well. Maybe in yet another misguided attempt to be recognized. But it&#8217;s fun! My religion\/philosophy class is entering the Nietzsche weeks, which is funny because I have a copy of the book we have to read; my writing class allows us to write in pretty much any format we like (which I am taking advantage of); and I guess above all else&#8230; it&#8217;s nice to have supportive friends who care about my interests and my past-present-future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u971c\u964d\u3002 Time just keeps passing faster, it seems.
