i have 2 weeks break before starting the spring semester. it's already been a week and i've been going to school most of this week working on my character model. i was going to go to the lab over the weekend as well but the go bus doesn't run to school on weekends. so i decided to take it easy and catch up with reading and watching movies.
i got a call this morning from the library i used to work at. a book that i placed order months ago had come. stradivarius by toby faber, a book about the famous violin maker and story of his six creations. i wanted to read about the man behind the world-famous instruments and the history behind his work. believe it or not i find this topic quite fascinating. classical music in general fascinates me.
tonight i watched birth starring nicole kidman. it received considerable buzz last summer during cannes and its poster caught my attention immediately. more specifically, the look on kidman's face caught me offguard. it was a look filled with grief that i have yet to understand.
