Regional Media Art Show!

In a previous post I had mentioned that one of my photographs had won 2nd place in an art show. So last night, I attended the award reception. It was very nicely done, the exhibits were organized, all of the art was steller. I have never been so inspired in my life! In totals, thirteen schools participated, so the work was very diversified.

Haha you're probably sick of this picture by now ^.^

I'm not even gonna bother posting the other one.

But I'm not gonna lie, seeing your work published/displayed/recognized makes for awesome feelings

NOTE: THE FOLLOWING WORK IS NOT MINE AND I TAKE 0 CREDIT FOR IT. These are just snapshots of some of the other work I found highly highly...well...awesome!

This is the picture that won 1st place in my category. It's totally sick.

I really really liked this one a lot

The title of this one was 'Hansel and Gretel' 

So creative!!

It's hard to tell from here, but there are people superimposed on the wall

Some Snapshots of the event:

That whole long showcase was the color photo category, not just that part ^^

Pretty cool. 

Anyways, I have SAT this SUNDAY and then finally my AP US Exam on Friday, so unfortunately I will not be able to update until then! Wish me luck! I'm gonna need it soooooo bad ;>.>

CULTURAL FAIR

Okay so I believe I OWE you guys a legit post! So here goes:

Today was my school's cultural fair! Now I'm in International Club so I forfeit about 20 minutes-the entire period of my advisory prepping for this day! 

In the fair, I run the Israeli Booth as well as teach Israeli Dance. We performed 3 times, and although the first one wasn't so hot, the second two performances were great! I uploaded it onto Youtube but it hasn't finished processing yet--when it does, I'll post it!

My booth!

My Dancers :)

Henna!

I also went to the Ethnic Items Booth and bought a few things....a Mohawk necklace for my sister, a purse from India,  a Korean phone charm, and a Chinese Ornament! I also got a pretty sweet Henna Tat (no picture though)

Can I call him Moo-shu? :)

The rest of my birthday was pretty awesome! I got some great presents (which I'm sure I'll post soon) Alice in Wonderland was great, especially in 3D iMAX, I highly recommend it! Oh and we did lose power at night which sucked a little but we managed to have fun!

Anyways Passover starts tonight and I need a nap VERY badly!

Purim Festivities

So in my last post I talked about making special cookies (Hamantaschen) for a holiday called Purim, and I've been out and about all weekend celebrating (leaving me not to much time for blogger and the huge pile of homework left for me. It's nearly 6! AHHHHH!)

So Saturday night I dressed up as a nerd, because costumes are part of the holiday. Like the suspenders?

My sis went as Hermione Granger

And my dad went as a NYC mugger.

Nice one dad.

We went to a small party---I was sort of bored there, only one other kid my age.

At least they had broccoli quiche.

mhhmmm.

Then I stayed up till 4 am attempting to do my psych assignment. I gave up halfway through. Then I woke up at 11:30 to finish, but I had to leave in the middle to go to a Purim Carnival

My day today was a tad more exciting. 

My mom knew I was tired/grumpy so she took me to Dunkin' Donuts. I always have a dilemma when I go there. See, I only like the cold "coolatta" drinks, but I feel like a total tool ordering a coolatta in mid-winter, when we just received a major snow-storm. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? And then I feel like a double tool because I know the people who work there from my school--so not only do I know I'm a tool, but they do as well.

Passed by a Hollywood Video. This sign made me LOL:

WTF? How can they even put that up? 

At the Carnival they did a Megillah reading (they recite the story of the holiday in Hebrew from a scroll).

When that was over, I watched my parents get a CARICATURE done.

 Then I got one done as well with my sister:

Getting a caricature done is one of the most awkward things ever. The people are paid to accent everything bad about your features. I was mortified sitting in that chair!

Luckily for us it didn't come out too bad!

I kinda want to make a new banner out of this ^_^

They also had a bounce house, cotton candy, food, different booths, laser tag etc. It was a lot of fun!

I squee'd when I saw the "sushi"

YUM.

"Profesional" Hamantaschen

Hate to be a creeper, but the guy in the brown shirt looked like Edward Cullen!!

Ohkay, I'm a creeper

Random costume people. The guy in the back was Ursula!

So now I'm doing more psych, then math, then English. Holy craps, it's 6:30.

Adios!

Sick for Cute and midterms -_-

Just a coolio online store that I'd like to share. I haven't ordered anything from here yet, as I'm careful with ordering stuff online, but some of their products are just so cute that I may give in.

Ten Dollars. I just love pandas!

Wait. On Second thought I need someone to stop me from buying out the ENTIRE STORE!

In other news I received my midterm grades today.

The Good News: I got in the mid-nighties on math even though I missed the entire first quarter and never learned the stuff

The Not So Great News: High eighties on Chem -_-

The Legit Bad News: Low eighties on APUSH.....I studied for HOURS, I read 400 pages in my review book....and I got a 5 on the DBQ.....that's out of 9. Shit (pardon my French). My parents may disown me.....

Anyways this is just something I made messing around on photoshop last night. I would very much like to do a series of pictures like these and put them all together. Feedbacks?
