Welcome back, Winter once again



Welcome back, Winter once again,

And put on your warm fuzzy sweater,

Cuz you'll feel much better when

The snowflakes fall, gently to the ground,

The temperature drops, and your shivers freeze all the rivers around,

But I keep you warmIf speed's a pro,

Inertia must be a con,

Cuz the cold wind blows at precise rates,

When I've got my ice skates onIf all the roads,

Were paved with ice that wouldn't thaw or crack,

I could skate from Maine to Nebraska,

Then on to Alaska and back,

Cuz you keep me warm

Peer over the edge,

Can you see me?

Rivulets flow from your eyes,

Paint runs from your mouth,

Like a waterfall,

And your lungs crystalize

I'll travel the sub-zero tundra,

I'll brave glaciers and frozen lakes,

And that's just the tip of the iceberg,

I'll do whatever it takes,

To change

Farewell powdery paradise,

We'd rather skate on the finished ice,

Fingers failed us before they froze,

Frostbite bit down on all our toes

Snow drifts build up and enfold us,

As we wait out this winter storm,

So we snuggle close in the darkness,

And keep each other so warm

-The Tip of the Iceburg by Owl City


it snowed today.



i love coming home.

'Cause I'm real

The way you walk, the way you move, the way you talk
'Cause I'm real
The way you stare, the way you look, your style, your hair
'Cause I'm real
The way you smile, the way you smell, it drives me wild
'Cause I'm real
And I can't go on without you

i feel like this song. certain people have been getting me down lately...i just have to keep reminding myself to smile and stay happy and positive.
'Cause I'm Real.

anyway--

megan wold photography

here are some logos i have been working on for the talented megan wold. the colors came out all wrong on here. it doesn't look like that at all. the circle on the one below is light blue and the words are dark brown.

the initials in the one is supposed to be brown and the words are light blue.

thanks megan! i'll be starting on her business cards soon! very excited :)

watching you's the only drug I need

Hey, hey
Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left side brains
I knew I wouldn't forget you, and so I went and let you blow my mind
Your sweet moonbeam, the smell of you in every single dream I dream
I knew when we collided, you're the one I have decided who's one of my kind
Hey soul sister, ain't the Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey
Just in time, I'm so glad you have a one-track mind like me
You gave my life direction, a game show love connection we can't deny
I'm so obsessed, my heart is bound to beat right out my untrimmed chest
I believe in you, like a virgin, you're Madonna, and I'm always gonna wanna blow your mind
Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
The way you can't cut a rug, watching you's the only drug I need
You're so gangsta, I'm so thug, you're the only one I'm dreaming of
You see, I can be myself now finally, in fact there's nothing I can't be
I want the world to see you be with me
Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do tonight,
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey
Tonight
Hey, hey
Tonight


i love dancing in the living room with you.

Sudio Crawl



Happy Monday!!
Last night I was totally dreading this week. There's nothing hard that's due...I just didn't want to do it. But everything changed after my first class. My design professor won't be around this Wednesday so we don't have class, and next Monday we have off for Fall Breather. :D YAY!! I was so pumped. :) still am!! I love how one little thing can turn everything around.
Anyway, I went to the Fargo/Moorhead Studio Crawl yesterday. We went to four studios.
This is Jon Offutt. He's a glass blower! He actually did Two demonstrations for us! It was really cool. I want to be a glass blower :)

He had a ton of glass pumpkins (big and small) all over his yard. You couldn't even tell they were glass until you got up close. Random piece of artwork :)

Carl Oltvedt (aka my drawing teacher!) His studio was awesome! He's amazing.

This one was so cool. They did giant Day of the Dead posters. They had big pieces of carved wood with intricate designs on them that they painted over. Then they put apiece of paper over it and drove a STEAM ROLLER over it.

taa-daa!

Have a great Monday!
