As some of you know, my sister, Leah, has been in Israel for the past 9 months. She is on a program called Year Course, which I also did as a gap year program between high school and college. She is currently living in Arad (in the south) and is volunteering with Darfuri refugees. As I analyzed these photographs, I believe she is planning to steal this adorable Darfuri baby and bring it back home when she arrives back in the U.S. in 2 WEEKS!
Well, I have checked off the first thing on my summer "bucket list". On Saturday, Sid, my father and I went cycling to the Queens Museum of Art in Flushing Meadow park. It was a lovely ride, even if it wasn't on my yellow Danish bicycle and we saw the sights of the 1939 and 1964 world's fair. The exhibit in the museum was primarily the panorama of NYC and there was also an exhibit on Great Small Works. GSW is a group that does deals with political performance art, and as a teenager I was involved in the mini productions with Jenny Romaine. It was a lovely day and now my butt hurts from cycling.
I sent these letters around 2 weeks ago but due to my ancient computer failing on me, and needing to go to the ICU of the Apple store, I have not been able to post this until now. My last week in Ann Arbor was amazing. Once finals were done and waiting to see my friends graduate (and hear Obama speak) I spent many hours on the roof. One of these days, I wrote 2 letters to my friend Ally, who has helped me so much in regards to my final for JS205, that I decided to doodle all over the envelopes. Grated, I did the same doodles when we were in class, but this time it wasn't getting involved with me paying attention. I decided to scan them in before sending them because I believe they are fun designs that you, my lovely readers, might enjoy!
