Jake in Asia: Just as quick as it started it ended, thank Goodness

Projects, papers, presentations and tests...'good grief' as Charlie Brown would say.

Finished my Chinese Philosophy paper, most miserable paper I've ever written. Not because I didn't like the top, Guqin Music as an extension of the Daodejing, quite the contrary. I just hate group work, specifically when I feel that I was the group. It's over, thats all that matters. At least the presentation I feel went rather well. No issues presenting, I even called out someone who was talking during it, directly asking them for their opinion of the piece I played. He shut up after he 'answered.'
It might have been a mean act, but it realligned my place in the universe so I'm ok with it.

Sociology Final came early, totally nailed it. Topic was on Chinese evolution of food culture, fortunately I did my report on McDonaldization and food culture. I got a 14of15 on the mid-term, and I expect another 14of15 on this one. Really like the readings, shame I'm no longer a Sociology Minor...Wha? Thats right, Linfield isn't offering enough for me to graduate, so now I'm a History Minor. Either way, the sociological readings are always interesting.

I write this with only 1 more project left. My Visual Culture project on evolution or artistic references. Hieronymus Bosch is a pretty cool guy. I actually use the Fleet Foxes album cover I posted last time as a reference to his work. After that...I"M DONE! Already did the final for this class. So just need to show up and I get my pts. Of all my classes in HK, I enjoyed it the most. Primary reason, never had a reason to look at artistic styles before, now that I have I feel I have a greater grasp of 'what is art.'

Such a cool building! Must go!

Found this in my first folder, so
interesting. As the girl I was traveling with said,
"It looks like a building met a dream and lived
happily ever after"
