Done with the last Art History exam of the year!
But this is still pretty funny
This is how I study for my Art History Exam.

Life Musings continued with an emphasis on the future
I had my life all planned out but then a series of rather strange events started happening this year and suddenly nothing seems sure anymore. It’s sort of ruining my perfect plans but oddly enough I kind of like it. Going plan-less is scary but fun and exciting.
To Paint, To Have Painted: You know you're a history of art student when....
AP Art History has made this so relevant..
I’ve seen these for a ton of other situations, but never one for history of art, so I thought I’d start one myself. :)
1. You go to art museums for fun.
2. Your the only person who’s skin crawls when you see a Thomas Kinkade painting. Your skin crawls even more when your friends say “his art is so amazing!”
3. When you mention Leonardo DaVinci, your non-art history friends say, “oh the DaVinci code?!” and you just sigh and walk away.
4. You look at nudes as a part of your degree, unlike your male housemates.
5. You know the meaning of words like ‘chiarascuro’, ‘trompe de l’oeil, and ‘sfumato’.
6. You know the difference between performance art and a crazy homeless person.
7. You’ve got an opinion on Damien Hirst and you are prepared at any moment to launch into a 20 minute debate about it.
8. You plan most of your holidays around what art museums the place has got.
9. You don’t actually have that many artists for friends.
10. To make up for it, you have made up friendships with a ton of Dead, White, European Males.
11. You’ve used the word ‘painterly’ to mean about ten thousand different things.
12. You know you’re an old history of art student when you remember being taught with the aid of a slide machine.
13. Well if “that’s so easy, I could have done it” WHY DIDN’T YOU?
14. Peggy Guggenheim, Alfred H Barr, Leo Castelli, and Charles Satchi are personal heroes.
15. You’ve become a pro at memorizing birth and death dates. And it’s starting to creep your non-art history friends out.
Amen to this, even though I’m not an art history student :’)
I’ll just pretend like this is actually helping me study for the art history final…
To promote Faber-Castell’s top of the line artist pencils, advertising agency Ogilvy & Mather recreated masterpieces such as Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” and Vincent Van Gogh’s “Terrace Cafe at Night” using thousands of colored pencils.

Prom 2012. A compilation of me making faces at the camera while my parents insist on a million more pictures. Also a picture with my sister
Anonymous asked: You should put up a prom picture!
Sure :)
Do candy canes have an expiry date? If not, I’m eating the ones I just found.
