Week-end

This weekend was great, except I lost (and found) my I.D about five times. I guess my mind is adjusting to living back here again. Aside from the time working on our latest drawing project (20 drawings of a single object, I chose a tea bag) 2D and 3D, this weekend was pretty eventful. 
Friday I went into the city to get a dress for the opening this coming Friday with my room-mate, and then that night I worked on my 20 drawings and spent time with some good friends. 
Saturday I was originally planning on going to the Vox Populi to see a film and listen to the curator but plans changed and I ended up having dinner with a group of girls from the dorm because it's restaurant week! For those of you who don't know, restaurant week is a great time to explore some of the restaurants we have in the city- for a set price they put together a menu of appetizers, entrees, and desserts, and the customers pick and choose the items they want. Earlier in the week I went to Kuma and then Saturday we went to the Marathon because J&H was booked. I liked the Marathon much better- very clean concerning both food and atmosphere. 
Sunday I dropped off some art work, went to Blick and finished up my drawing assignments. Monday was great because I was able to see my cousin Peter off before he left for the Marines (he recently graduated) and yet another restaurant. This time we went to the Prohibition House, definitely cozy and pretty affordable for center-city-esque. 
This weekend is something to look forward to. Opening, showings, and hopefully the  Mütter  Museum Sunday.
It's getting so cold out!! I heard 10 inches for tomorrow!! (EDIT: woke up to about five inches, and it's been snowing since...classes cancelled!) I can't wait for when it thaws out just a little bit so being outside/bike riding is more enjoyable.
