Pioneer Craft Hour: Redscale Film



If I wasn't lazy, I would just make it myself, but Urban Outfitters sells redscale film which is just too convenient. I bought a pack before Mandrew and I headed to Chicago, and it was worth all seventeen sacajaweas.

We stayed with a few friends in Wicker Park, which is a lot like walking into a ReadyMade magazine. All the kids are hip, artsy and eco-friendly. When we got off the elevated train, I had two thoughts. First, "I'm gonna take photos of EVERY SINGLE PERSON we pass", and second, "where are all the adults?"

On Monday while our friends were working their day jobs, Mandrew and I headed out to see Chicago's art district. We had quite the time walking there in a foot of snow, in the bitter cold
(Note: Boat shoes--deceiving as they may be--are not snow appropriate).

Although EVERY single gallery was closed and the trip was incredibly disappointing (Monday, I HATE you), we did cross a bright red bridge which was worth photographing (more here) .

Reading Rainbow: Law School Admissions Torture(Prep)

Too many episodes of Scrubs made me a pre-med in college (a short-lived two-semester delusion), and too many episodes of Raising the Bar have made me register for the LSAT (a half-day multiple-choice ordeal).

Why am I taking the LSAT? Because I haven’t ruled out law school. But then again, I haven’t ruled out running through on-coming traffic across the Roosevelt Memorial Bridge and then swan-diving into the Potomac River to live permanently with mermaids and pretty fishies.

I bought a small paperback LSAT guide, the size of a romance novel, because it was less intimidating, and well, cheaper.
Here’s a taste:

Questions 34-35

During a museum trip, Martha and John each attend three history lectures (B, C, and D) and three science lectures (X, Y, and Z). They do not attend the same lecture at the same time, although they attend all six one-hour lectures. The lecture schedule must conform to the following conditions:

- John must attend each science lecture prior to Martha attending that same lecture.
- Martha must attend each history lecture prior to John attending that same lecture.
- John cannot attend two historical lectures consecutively.
- Martha must attend lecture Z third.
- John wants to bring his dog to the lectures.
- Martha never talks to strangers.
- Martha and John hate each other.

34. Which one of the following could be true?
(A) John attends Y first.
(B) Martha attends D first.
(C) Martha will inevitably slap John on the mouth.
(D) John’s dog will bite Martha.

35. If John attends lecture B fourth, which of the following CANNOT be true.

(B) Martha doesn’t even like museums.
(C) John has to postpone the lecture to "work" on the financial crisis.

(E) Hybrid will get the lowest score in the history of LSAT, EVER.
