New York City, you're so pretty.

So yesterday I went to SVA's open house, and boy was that an experience. It started at 9am so I had to leave my house around 4 in the morning to get there in time. Well we made it there and it was AMAZING! The school was incredible and the presentations were awesome! I would L O V E to go there. Unfortunately though, it's so expensive that I don't think I'll be able too....... but we'll see. Who knows what could happen.

Anyway, before we got to the open house, we had to park. We had passed the garage and made a loop around the block and as we were looping (is that a word?) we came across a street that had a parking spot. At least, we thought it was a parking spot. There were cars all around us and we were behind the yellow line, and there was absolutely no sign that said we couldn't park there.... turns out it wasnt a legit parking spot. We get back to where we parked, after walking in the pouring rain, and it was gone. We ended up walking over 12 blocks to the pound were we stood in line and waited for an hour to get our car. Thank God it was only an hour wait and not three..... we then drove home, miserable and wet and in the dark.........Quite a story for my first time in New York.

In other news: here are some sketches I did at a figure drawing class the other night.
