EinP at the WPG


Yay for acronyms that make no sense so that you're forced to keep reading!

I am up for an award by the Washington Printmakers Gallery, by the name of Excellence in Printmaking. One of my prints, "Rough" will be up for the EinP exhibition in February. The reception will take place Saturday, Feb 5, from 1 - 4. Directions to the Washington Printmakers Gallery can be found at washingtonprintmakers.com .

In other news, I came downstairs yesterday to find three (of my four) male roommates playing an xbox game which involves shooting nazi zombies and their zombie dogs (which are on fire). We then made falafel and pumpkin cheesecake and thus had one of the weirdest dinners ever. School has also begun, which is sort of meaningless except that I'll be staying put for awhile. Other weird news, I met a dog that drinks bourbon.

Future Me


I have startled myself a few times, all by receiving emails from the past.. from myself. Due to an extremely unstable memory, and extremely vivid dreams which make me confuse the two sometimes, I tend to forget when I send future me an email. This is of course through futureme.org where I enter the date I want them to send the email. The first time I received an email was when I was 18 and had sent the email when I was 16. Adorable teenage Fawna sent less-adorable older teenage Fawna an email, with all her hopes and dreams as a 16 year old, and 18 year old Fawna almost marked it as spam and tossed it.

Today, though, I got another email from myself of which I have zero recollection sending. The email is as follows:

The following is an e-mail from the past, sent through FutureMe.org
It was composed on Thursday, January 21, 2010, to be sent on Sunday, January 23, 2011:

PASSPORT

That's it. Passport. What did I mean?

(dangerous weapons on the metro)




I don't like coming home to an empty house. I just don't like living alone, I guess. I like being able to say good morning to someone, and to say good night to someone. This house isn't even that big but I wish it were smaller when I'm by myself. This is why I need a dog. Preferably a big one, with big teeth.

I am leaving for Hawaii on Thursday! I realized that I've been in a different state every week for the last few weeks. Funny, because now I'm thinking about what country I'd like to go to instead of my graduation ceremony.

Saw one man hugging another man today. As in, the other man was not hugging back. Always an interesting situation.

The two photographs today are from my holiday break so far. The first, of my cat in Dallas, where my parents now live. She enjoys snuggling with feet and stuffed animals. The second, evidence of some ice skating at the Smithsonian sculpture garden.
