So it's been a few weeks, I had multiple auditions, fall break, and some rest, but this weekend, it was time to actually do stuff again. I worked on some choreography and a warm up to teach tomorrow, and I started the reading assignment for my ballet class. I also voted! Well, I haven't sent the ballot yet, as I have to do mail in ballot, but once I find where on campus I can send mail, that will be done. I'm also finally registered for my classes next semester, and even though I had to change my minor, I'm excited for them.

Okay, so today's exam was weird, cause the teacher didn't put any of the art we technically had to study for today, so we had to be guessing in an interesting way. The only good thing is that I know like half of the paintings and can be saying weird facts I know about the rest because the painting can give you a lot of information.

René Magritte, The Lovers II

A lot of us have gotten more radicalized with this, but it's honestly terrifying how this tragedy has made so many people turn to the far-right.

Yesterday I had a huge argument with a good friend of mine because of this He's always been a leftist, but he shared a screenshot of a far-right protest and, when I told him it was organized by the far-right, he told me he would support whoever was helping Valencia and that right now it was the right and not the left. Which, alright, fair, they all suck right now, but my brother in Christ let's not forget it was the right that cut funds directed towards first responders, firefighters and EMTs to put them towards killing bulls in the name of tradition. Let's not forget it was the right that tried to shut down the AEMET because it was "useless". It was the right that wouldn't allow help from outside, too scared of having to face the consequences and the thousands - sorry, """hundreds""" of people they've killed with their incompetence and greed. It's the far right that ignored nine, NINE warnings from the AEMET, because they didn't want to lose money, but sent their own workers home early so they could evacuate.

It's the far-right that is refusing help and resources to POC and immigrants, and it's the far right that is spinning the narrative so people shout "Sánchez dimisión" instead of "Mazón asesino".

It's terrifying to see how the far-right benefits from the desperation and pain they caused directly.

THERE WOULDN'T BE MORE THAN 2 THOUSAND DEATHS IF THE FAR RIGHT REGIONAL GOVERNMENT HAD DONE ITS JOB. THERE WOULDN'T BE THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF MISSING PEOPLE IF THE FAR RIGHT GOVERNMENT HAD ACCEPTED THE OUTSIDE HELP AND ASKED FOR IT.

The ""leftist"" central government can't do anything if the Generalitat doesn't ask for help, because the far right made sure that the leftist central government couldn't do it during the last national crisis - the pandemic.

"Don't make this about politics" but it was a far right politic who cut funds from public services that would've saved lives. "Don't make this about politics" but it was a far right politic who tried to shut down the AEMET. "Don't make this about politics" but it's a far right government that is refusing help, arresting people who are shoplifting basic necessities, and telling volunteers to leave because the fucking King wants to take a stroll through the disaster zones.

"Don't make this about politics" but the far right kills. The far right is the direct responsible of thousands of deaths.

Plethora of colours in chemistry lab 👩🏻‍🔬

So my best friend and I are planning to live together when we finish studying, the problem? He loves minimalism with very sober decoration but a little bit of funny touch, and I love the most tacky and strange things you can find. So I only can do the curtains and under the condition that he has to see them first. They are going to be by crochet.

It's hard finding a balance but somehow we are doing it.

For reference, this is a gag photo I sent him.

It might be amazing for some people but for my best friend and I is not that amazing.

Okay, so right now I'm doing a detail of one of the statues of my class and then I'll paint it with coffee, the other drawing is a sketch of a bigger project, I have to replicate a painting, and I decided to do woman sitting, by Poldi Lodzinsky.
