So as some of you know I am in Europe for 3 weeks. Well now I am only in Europe for two weeks. The first week I spent in Paris, visiting my friend Katie. Now I am in Berlin and I feel the need to post photos of Paris so that I can post photos of Berlin. It’s a complicated cyclical process. Here are a few pictures:
And that is a lot of photos. Final conclusion: all of these places are awesome.

So I know this blog has been fairly school focused lately, but I guess you are just going to have to deal with it cause here comes more. I am in a Feminist Theory class and at the end of the class we have the choice of writing a 15 page paper, or doing a 30 minute presentation. They could be on anything that involved women. In a moment of supreme wisdom I chose to do a presentation. I like the internet so my topic was Women and the Internet.
I started off with a presentation using Prezi, which was fun cause it zoomed around a lot.. see:
So that was the presentation and then I decided to do run a little book workshop. I was especially stunned by the disparity of women contributors on wikipedia, so I had everyone make a book that was a guide to adding information to Wikipedia. Here it is:
TaDa! I’m a student. Do you for some strange reason also want to make a wikipedia booklet thing? Go here and you can print it out and then follow these instructions.

So for your next farty party you can get an inflatable and funny cooler for your drinks.
So it is snowing outside. Here is what it looks like.
Here is a little haiku I though of this morning when I saw the snow:
the snow falls down, white and crisp
a simple canvas
perfect for art or dog piss.
Well I saw this a few days ago on pinterest…

And conveniently in the corner of my room I had an old frame that I had been avoiding doing anything with, because I envisioned it becoming something spectacular. So I ended up making this.
(ps. i took that photo crooked accidentally.)

I think there either needs to be more things in there or less, and more darker colors. I can’t really decide where I am going to go with it.
So Kerry over at the Tragic Whale made a post a few days ago on DIY holiday gift tags and I loved them.
She made stamps out of erasers. I decided to make some of my own, but switched it up with holly instead.
I don’t have a typewriter like she does, so I was forced to go all marker on it.
Here they are on the presents. Go small families!
Merry Christmas!
Look. It’s a bunch of cats on a puzzle making art. One of the books on the right says ‘Piccatso’.
So it is getting closer to Christmas and I am officially getting in the spirit. So here are the holiday-ish things I’ve been doing.
I made a wreath at a program in the dining hall:
And then I made gingerbread houses at another program:
(the other one was less pretty, so I didn’t do any pictures focusing on it.)
Also, I got this puzzle of a nice winter scene, it may not be snowing yet, but at least it is in puzzles:
Oh and of course, no holiday would be complete without a disgusting amount of dreadful christmas movies. So I have already watched Snowglobe and Christmas Cupid. They sure were something:
I’m not a huge cat fan, but I saw my black coat on my bed tonight and I thought it was my cat from home. I missed him for about 5 seconds. Then I imagined how his fur would stick to my bed.. so I didn’t miss him anymore.
That’s him right there.
