Welcome!

Here is a truly lame first post from your mostly MIA art student, HaeWon.

First of all I'd like to say I'm alive and well and that college has been treating me pretty decently. You know, other than getting zero sleep and being busy every waking moment of every single second of every single day.

I'd like to invite you, my friends and family, to follow this blog which will be about academic and personal things, relating to my adventures up here at RIT. You can all leave me comments here and other somesuch nonsense if you wish. I'm going to try to update pretty frequently.

So, to give you all something interesting to look at I'll start with a mini-visual tour of the academic side of campus:


This is my door. A friend of mine drew that tiny picture of me on it!
[by the way, you can blow up all these pictures by clicking on them]

This is the stairwell I run down every morning to get to Japanese in time!
It's my earliest class and it starts at 9. Practically the crack of dawn.
I live on the third floor!

This is Building 30. The building I live in.

A couple of friends of mine call it "the ghetto" because all the other residential building have names; "Fish" "Colby" "Nathaniel Rochester Hall" "Gleason". We are stuck with a number. As a result I have many people tell me they have no idea where my building is. I live right across from a fraternity and next door to sorority on an all girls floor. It's delightful. Sometimes.

The Quarter Mile

This is the path I tread every day to get to class. Look at the lack of slush on the pavement! Isn't it glorious to behold!? However, I'm sad to say, that is not always the case. That brick building on the right hand side houses our gym and pool, etc.

Also; much more recently I cut and dyed my hair once again!

It is now blindingly pink on one side! I also cut and dyed, my friend and neighbor, Tiff's hair. It is now a lovely shade of black with purple tips. I may post pictures later.

Please observe our floor's truly amazing communal bathroom in the background! This, ladies in gentleman, is where I shower (when I have time to).
