A Great Saturday

Apparently, there was a huge MOHO party that I had no idea about. But even though I didn't make an appearance, I had an awesome Saturday.

First off, my roommates and I redecorated and painted our living room. The first colors were a puke green and hayfield yellow. I don't know who decorated that before. It was like someone crapped out two of the worst colors and put them on our walls (that was a gross analogy, sorry).

Then, I went to the Musuem of Art with my great friend, Clarise. We saw all but one of the exhibits. My favorite exhibit was the religious one. They really didn't have any major theme. There was famous Mormon art on the walls, some Rembrandts (all the originals) and some others. Here are my two favorites (I took pictures of them, and I had no idea I wasn't supposed to).




Now, as I saw these paintings, I was taken aback by their stunning beauty. I especially like the one of the chairs. I think there was so much thought, effort, and symbolism put into that work of art. The first one, has me a little...confused. It's Jesus, yes, but a...hot Jesus? I mean, maybe I'm being way too sacrilegious here, but...I can't see Jesus carrying the cross looking like He just got done working out at the gym. However, I do like the painting.

Then, Clarise and I went to IKEA and played "500 Days of Summer". I bought some art for my living room. It was great. Then, we played house, and office, and bedroom. It was hilarious. People stared at us. We made up scenes about our "married life". We had arguments. We threw dishes and made noodles. All in IKEA. I love my Clarise...in a...homosexual friendship way. "We're not dating!"

After that, we went to my apartment where my roommates Andrew and Jeff were having a combined birthday party. Andrew's band, Dr. Dribble played.



Following the awesome music, we had a dance party! At one point in the night we had about 30 people over. It was fantastic! We all danced to techno, rock, and of course, Lady Gaga. My roommates are awesome. My friend are awesome.

And they all contributed to me having a great Saturday.

    If you're talking about the one at our house, they're always on the last Saturday of the month and you're always invited--so you can't say you don't know about it anymore. :)

    (If you're talking about some other MoHo party, then I had no idea about it either)

  2. That second painting you have on here has always been one of my MOA favorites. I know the MOA well, seeing as I worked there for a year. Anyway, I love the symbolism of that painting.
