Philosophizing

No new exciting photos or anything interesting this week really, just a few quick thoughts! Recently I've been obsessing over House M.D. more than usual, so I've been watching the whole series over again from Season 1. It make me obsessive because he's a puzzle solver just like me. Secondly, I've been feeling all analytical lately, hence why I've been watching House, and I've also been journaling a lot and writing some poetry.

A poem I started.

We're worlds a part, we're side by side.
But we know now our worlds collide.
With questions asked, it's what you'll find.
I hear everything except your mind.

Tea, Sewing and Friends

Yesterday was a very nice day. When I got up I had a lovely breakfast, made a pair of shorts which turned out wonderful, watched an episode of Downton Abbey, and spent the whole evening with friends for a birthday party. I didn't take any pictures of the evening, but here are some from the part of the day I spent at home. And here are the shorts I made! What do you think? :)

This is what I ended up wearing to my friend's birthday party. I really like how the shorts go with black tights.

And my cat, just for fun... :)

Cats and Books

 Today I've been feeling preppy and absorbed in studies, hence my outfit today. After school I wanted a picture of my outfit, but by the time I'm home the lighting around my house is usually pretty unflattering. Then I saw my cat sitting proudly in this room and got inspired, and he decided to include himself in my photoshoot which I thought turned out pretty cute. I especially love this first picture of him in the background.

Lately I've been reading The Legends of King Arthur. The book here is called The Once and Future King (also about King Arthur) which I read several years ago. I decided to read another version of the legend, however the one I've been reading is focused almost completely on battles so I'm not sure if I'll finish it. The version I read before is more storybook-like, so maybe I'll reread it instead sometime. 

Legion of Honor Museum

Yesterday I went to my favorite museums in San Francisco. I really wanted to take a lot of nice pictures there and also use my film camera, however my its batteries were dead and the museum was decently crowded so I didn't get as many pictures as I wanted. Well, it just means I'll have to go back :)

Bernini's Medusa is one of their special exhibits right now.

This is my favorite room in the museum. 

These were two exhibits I saw. I wasn't aloud to take photos in the Pissarro exhibit, so I don't have any pictures of the work I saw. But they were all very interesting, the exhibit was about the types of people he painted rather than some of his other work. It showed many paintings of his family, but mainly of peasants and laborers.
