Almost a year later

Wow, it's been a year since my last blog and that was some depressing sht. Situation at work doesn't seem to be getting any better. I'm getting less motivated by the minute. oh well.. suck it up.

I don't have much profoundness to preach. I saw some teenages at a food court today, and they look like babies. I didn't think I looked a baby when I was 16.. but that was almost 8 yrs ago..

Time sneaks up on you and steals from you before you notice. Must act fast...

I didn't do any major travelling last year. However, I did get in touch with nature several times, went without showers for three days while camping, woke up in 26F coldness from a tent, saw amazing tufas, hiked in search of elks, and was awed by their stern posture and blinded by their white butts (their bodies have three colors!!) . I went to NYC, Quebec, Montreal (Canada is a much more pleasant place to be), Galena, Tahoe (winter and summer), Vegas, LA... I thought about going to Japan and Australia..

I'm too timid and indecisive to do any major life changes right now. I think I want to stop work and travel, but reality smacks me in the face and tells me to suck it up and get back to work. I think I'm going to London this summer because my boyfriend's mother is going to give a presentation there (she just got her PhD.) and kids can always smooch of parents, so at the least, Jason and I will have our meals covered.. =) And that would be my first time ever in Europe!!!

I signed up to volunteer at a children's museum to help with wall murals and set building and alike... I need some new activities besides going to work and hanging out...
aight, peace

Well, nine year has passed. I got my master's in architecture, I got into F+P, I got my licence, but I got nothing built. So once again, I'm lost.  No job, but has work to do... I'm at a crossroad, very unmotivated to keep doing the same thing, but echoing my previous posts in the past 20 year, being timid to try something new... At least I finally learned how to make GIF emoji, that's a bit new....and a bit fun! 😂😂😂

A day in Austin

Today, I walked around Austin's Warehouse District and 2nd Street District for the very first time. Maybe because it is the Labor Day weekend, it was almost like a ghost town. None the less, there were many quaint finds. This store specializes in doggie attire... Post-it art =) Old wooden tracks Some of the buildings are the decade old warehouses buildings. How valuable are historic buildings to our current living? Are we preserving them for the sake of nostalgia? Or are they just in the way of developing better money churning properties.

A new semester

Four more years have passed since my last blog, and something happened today that has ticked me enough to write in this again... My friend Hannah and I visited the UT art museum, the Blanton Art Museum, and I am now infused with opposing emotions that I have to let it out. Legend has it that Herzog & de Meuron was commissioned to build the new UT art museum back in the late 1990's. However, after they were selected, the UT Regency demanded the art museum to be more stylistically in line with the rest of the campus. As a result, Herzog said "BISAK (bye in Swedish)" and we don't have a landmark. We have a building that looks like the rest of the campus, with unadorned post-modern arches and columns and boarded up windows at the street level! At least the overhang soffit is generous and has nice wood paneling. Entering the museum, unimpressed, my mind changed quickly as we approached the central atrium with north facing sawtooth skylights, filling the space with
