~ Tomek & Agata's Wedding Day

Wedding day. I did my best to fast the week before. Natalia of course beat me by a couple dozen miles. OH MAH GOODness, SO much foooooooooood. >_______< And we had to try EVERYthing, of course. @_@ and the desserts...... uugh **sugar coma** DELICIOUS. XD

As with every Polish festive event, vodka was present and poured. Wine too. The ladies prefer the wine, the gents prefer the vodka. Lol. My aunt and gram got super tipsy. The singing was chorus, as loud as you can sing. Very joyous. **PHOTOS**

Amusing moment~ The point during the wedding festivities where the bride tosses her bouquet to the herded group of un-wed ladies attending.. ......... Ri~ght.. Well, we were herded.. and holy cow, NONE of us gerls launched for that bouquet.. actually quite the opposite. We were pushin' e/other out of the way. LOL One of the yougest members, Little Zuzanna (5 1/2) caught the flowers, twice, 'cuz none of the older gals were willin' to get jinxed. The guys however *laughs* man, they LAUNCHED for that cravat. First toss, my Uncle Grzegorz caught it.. which doesn't count, 'cuz he's married happily and has three kids. Sheesh.. Second launch, a young lad by the name of Michal caught the cravat. We were teasin' his gerl Natalia (not my Natalia) for the rest of the evenin'.

It was a really nice day. Totally wasn't in photo takin' mode though.. too preoccupied with wearin' a skirt and a top that made it look like i had a C+ cup with good posture. >_<;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; gah. plague. Note to self -- No skirts and boob blowin' up shirts when in Photograph mode.

Enjoy the photos.

**sigh of relief**
**tension fades**

Today.. today I met with the Dean of the Academy of Fine Arts.
Yup.
:3
It was good. It went well. I will meet with him again in a week. Let me explain way, yes? Yes yes~

I brought with me a sampling of my favorite photos/compositions I finished. He liked the selection, and asked that I bring in EVERYthing I have with me. My sketch books, my works from last semester. I'm going to ask my brother to take pictures of the works I had to leave behind too so that I can use those as well.
All in all, even though I got on the wrong bus towards the university and had to walk the same distance as if I hadn't taken the bus at all, and I have two addition blisters on top of the two I got tues., it was still a beautifully sunny day with the right amount of breeze and a good day.

Just a min. ago I got off the phone w my aunt. T_T The phrase ''be cultured'' involves a lot of backwash stress with me. If I'm going into the art world (which I technically have very specific tastes about) I have to love ALL of the art in the world, and go see ALL the exhibits (doesn't matter what about, as long as it's art related) EVERY chance I get *rabid rabid*. ..... >_< This woman is going to torture me into artistic animosity. GAH. It's bad enough I have to force my lazy caboose out to exhibits that the Professor recommends (do not insult the man who has connection comin' out his ears.. that, and he's a very sincere and nice fellow), but that's not good enough, nooooo nooooooooo. I don't know why she even bothers asking me! Why does she ask me??!! If when I say no I get a HELL'a'lot of feed back on the subject of my state of 'culture' and how it needs to 'expand' and if I don't want to 'expand' why the heck am I trying to get into the art academy, why don't I just go work in a mine somewhere.................... U_U The natural route of logic on my dad's side of the family hurts my brain.. it's either ALL or shit. No wonder I'm Obsessive Compulsive. sheesh.
I got up this mornin' with the birds, had a full day, now I just wanna be lazy.. damnitall....... exhibits... gah!

first impression, right on the ball + aunt rant

**heart**
@_@

yesh.. bureaucracy way. i know a guy who knows Professor who knows the Dean the Academy of Fine Arts. >_<

Yesterday didn't go well.......... I'm a stress ball now. I didn't make the bus i needed to make in order to make it on time. I didn't make it one time for the meeting, i called the Dean's office and let him know. I don't think he got the message. I misunderstood the Professor because I didn't know he was supposed to be at the meeting as well, so I didn't call him to let him know what was going on.
I suck.

HOWever, while I was there yesterday, I arranged for a meeting tomorrow @ 12. I called the Professor and apologized, begged for his forgiveness, and when he asked if I'd like him to be there tomorrow, I said "Yes, I would very much like that very much, thank you very much." uugh.. I suck at this make a whole new you phase.

T_T High heels, ... when in a hurry to make an appointment, across cobble stoned sidewalks = no no. But I aint' got no dainty, pedicure spoiled feetsies, so only minor abrasions remain. I will survive.. with small band aids.

TOMORROW I will make it ON TIME damnitall.

Things aint' so cut and dry this side of the Prime Meridian. X6

Aunt Rant::
I've got these nagging thoughts in my head right now.. My Aunt Lily (dad's side) is DEFINITELY the older sister of my father. In her house, I'm a 10 year old anorexic with a grand case of Broadway Syndrome (always willin' to put on a show, in my case, at my own expense). Don't get treated seriously and constantly reminded of how 'little' I know, how 'un-cultured' and 'un-refined', ""But she's pretty, oh so Pretty, and she Loves me and just wants the best for me"" lal alalalala~~ I am............. uugh..fork in me. **bing** There's a headache at least a few times a week. I've actually come to butt heads with the woman over the most retarded subjects (as I did on a mostly daily basis with the ol'man). For a woman the religiously preaches against hysterical episodes, she sure gets worked up rather quick.. and all I have to do is scrunch my face. **bangs head against wall**

Moving out is a necessity.
If I have to take out a loan to get a place, so be it.
School first, Independence...... when I get the loan. lol

Try #2.
My luck lasts up to three attempts.
