of north carolina

after the ACT's on June 12th, i've been on the road. it's pretty amazing what inspiration boredom can offer, though. i've done a few sketches... some are realistic and others are weird, and reflect the strange, abstract dreams i've been having, i guess.

the cities i've visited in the past week are amazing and stunning. milwaukee, chicago, ann arbor, detroit, cincinnati, columbus, providence, new haven, boston, new york city, philadelphia, newark, baltimore, ocean city, durham....
i don't know how i'm going to go back to small town living.

i used to dislike traveling because of the hassle of living somewhere new every night, but i've seen so much architecture and so many wall murals and statues that i'm finally starting to appreciate this. and being on the east coast, i can relate the history i've learned through apush.

and the one place that still lingers prominently in my mind is ithaca, new york. the campus of Cornell University. i don't even know how to start describing it, for i'm afraid words will ruin it. its wondrous. maybe sometime soon i'll gather the courage to try and draw it :)

well that's all for now. i'm going to upload pictures before my mom wants her laptop back.
oh here's my flickr :)
