HI MOM!

THIS SONG THAT I reference to is one from what I’m going to call the best chick flick since 50 First Dates. Yes I am talking about that charming and rib-splittingly funny movie, Music & Lyrics.

1) I usually dislike Drew Barrymore (even though she was awesome in 50 First Dates)
2) I usually HATE Hugh Grant. He blinks too girly-like.

3) The amazingness of this movie trumps both 1&2.

Still not convinced?

CLICK HERE FOR REASON #2 WHY I LOVE THIS MOVIE

Ahh… yes it’s the kind of movie that kind of make you wish you were in love.

Sigh.

Anyways…

1) Who would I be if I didn’t show the most recent art I’ve been working on?

Now I”m working on a sculpture using the subtractive method (starting from a block and carving out the image). It’s a lot more difficult that i thought. I’m using plaster, and here is what I have so far:

I’m not going to say what it’s supposed to be quite yet - I don’t belive in spoon-feeding people my ideas. Just look at it and next time I’ll tell you what I’m doing. If you want to say something about it, it’s always useful for an art person (I’m not calling myself an artist just yet) to hear it.

2) I do believe my roommate went crazy. First she started giving away a lot of her clothes, then she decided to cut the hoods off a couple of her sweaters. So Laura, Justine and i made rapper hats. Check ‘em out!

Yeah… oh dear.

3) I’m baking cinnamon rolls for my plia team, and they smell amazing. You should be jealous and wishing you were in my PLIA team.

4) My hand got butchered today. First of all I literally shredded the skin on my thumb, I have two very bad blisters on my palm, three burns, and a few heavy gashes in my knuckles. The price of being an art major is high.

5) Welp… not much has been going on - I’m enjoying life. I leave for Denver tomorrow for PLIA (PLIA stands for “putting love into action”. they are student-led mission groups.) I’m hoping it will be a beneficial time.
PLEASE PRAY:

1) for travelling mercies for all the dordt students going home/on vacation for spring break.

2) for all the sites that PLIA will be working with and that we make an impact… hopefully a positive one

Rachel and Josh I hope you are enjoying home

Mom I love you and I gave sarah the number you can contact me by

Sarah can you give mom that number I gave you?

Love, deedee
