I don't know why I remember
I don't know why I remember the way beer bottle caps smelled after my grandfather would hand them to me. They were so cold and smelled so bread-y. It was so different from any other scent in that house, a house full of dust and dried prize roses my grandfather grew in his front yard. I don't know why I remember licking the inside, feeling the refrigerated metal warm against my tongue, in my hand. I don't know why I remember sitting with the little collection of them that I hid in the bottom of the toy basket my grandparents kept for me; stacking the bottle caps and pressing their edges into my palm while listening to my grandpa and daddy talk about grown up things and grandma and mommy argue in the kitchen about dinner.
Prompt 1: Write a sentence that will draw a person in
...Based on a story you tell to people.
It was the middle of the night, I was locked out of my boyfriend's room, and all I had on was a large tee shirt and my underwear.

Digital Duckie and Butterfly

Duckie duckie duckie duckie!!!
I had fun doing this assignment, and finished like 4 classes before the rest of the class. It's having the tutorial guide, I like having a written reference for how to do things in any given program, it makes me feel efficient and intelligent because I CAN READ GUD.
No seriously, I can. 750 on the Reading Comprehension section of the SAT when I was a stupid seventeen year old, so imagine how much smarter and intuitive I've become since then!
So, the last few classes I have admittedly been screwing around, thinking about what to do for my free-create aspect of this assignment. We need to make an animal under our own steam and instruction using the tools we used for the rubber duck. I first tried to do a cat, but that was an unmitigated disaster. I don't really have the time and patience for such fine point control.
So I did a butterfly! Yaaaay Symmetry and easy-to-identify-and-divide-into-root-shapes animals!I'm messing with the flamingo textures, I have gold and translucent plastics for my build parts right now.
I need to make arms, insect pinchers and insect arms. rawr.
