I've spent the last two days entirely at home, trying to study. Searching around my room I found some old negatives in an envelope stuffed in a book (a combined creative solution to never carrying a binder/folder and never having enough negative protector sheets), so I scanned those and put them on flickr. I am going to try and find a darkroom somwhere. I also found and old exercise book of mine which reminded me that the piano in my room isn't just a dust collector; I dusted it off and tried to play "Artist's Life" by Johann Strauss, a piece that still eludes me. I'm going to record myself playing it and listen to it incessantly to try and memorize it.

Spring break plans: MOCA is having an exhibition of Eric Wesley at the Pacific Design Center. Also, LACMA's exhibition "Miró to Warhol: Gifts from Robert H. Halff" looks noteworthy with works from Koons, Miro, Lichtenstein, Warhol, etc.

Some films I've seen recently: Firefly Dreams, a rather crappy and typical Japanese film not worth seeing, A Ma Soeur, which Ryan's friend called "Feminist tripe," although I liked it, and Une Femme est Une Femme.
