Art and Science

Hello beautiful sister
 
I am so sorry that you were feeling sick... but I am glad that now you have built up immunity and won't get that virus again :)
 
Well, I haven't really done anything too exciting... I didn't get the lab job I was looking forward to :( It  definitely has made me very sad and my self-esteem is pretty low but I am working very hard at turning around my point of view of myself!
 
Anyways, I did go to the Seattle Art Museum on January 12, 2013 for the Elles: Pompidou and Elles:SAM exhibit. You know, feminism, no bras, lots of v. Some of it was so beautiful and well executed while other parts was just.... graphic. I am obviously not an art critic but there were many pieces that moved me! There was a specific one.. a b/w photo of a beautiful woman... like flawless... short blonde hair, big eyes/lips, perfect nose ... and I was so captivated at her beauty that I wanted to know who that perfect specimen was.... turns out it was a mannequin!!! The artist was trying to demonstrate that we as a whole want to seek the most perfect specimen even though no such thing exists... and dude, she got me! I haven't always thought of myself as a cookie cutter person but I definitely fit her audience :/! Anyways here are some photos!
 

 
 
 
 
 
So that was fun.. but something a WHOLE lot more fun was a set of chemistry experiments at the Dollar Tree!!! Can you believe it?! Make your own snow, grow your own bouncy balls, and grow your crystals! I was so excited... I know they are meant for kids, but I wanted them :) Now to find someone to do these experiments with! When are you coming down, again? haha
 
 
 

 
I love you sister! Have a wonderful night/day/week/month/year! besos
 
xoxo VEM
