Poem, eh?

SHE WALKS IN BEAUTY - Lord Byron


She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climbs and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and brights
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling place

And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
That smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind of peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!

Goose Feather.

I couldn't think of a decent or even vaguely interesting blog post to post.
So this shall have to be a boring update instead.

I'm furthering my education in design this summer/fall, as it is my career of choice. I'll be "following" a designer around for a day sometime during this or next week. She's an old family friend who's sorta a partner in my dads painting business, and owns a whole design company in Matthews, NC. I think I've met her once when I was really little, and although she reminds me of /the/ Paula Deen, I'm excited.
This summer (The end of June through July) I'm taking a design course at Cpcc, which is also taught by the previously-mentioned family friend. I fear I'm in danger of becoming the "teachers pet", because she's informed us that she'd get me in the class even if it was full, and that she'd drive me if I needed a ride. Keep in mind that I really don't know this woman at all.
My official course classes start this fall, and I still haven't purchased rubber cement yet...


Did you know that if you put lemon juice in your hair than sit out in the sun for a while it lightens your hair? I'll be back to dirty-blonde in no time. Haha. Although sunburn is a small consequence... it hasn't happened yet, but I'm sure it will soon.

My family and I are also going to Pittsburgh to visit family over the 4th, and I'm excited about that too. I treasure road-trips, and I'll be sure to take some pictures this time.

And lastly, my poor little iPod is out of space. All I have on it is music, and I've had to take some things off to fit more. I think I'm gonna have to look into getting a new one with more space... which means I'll have to spend money when I'm not making any...
Which brings us to the job-hunt topic. Yuck.

I changed it because it's my favorite color. That's why.

A few that I didn't put on Facebook...
