Parking Day

        Since, I am officially majoring in interior design we have lots of creative projects. One of the most fun projects that we have had is Parking Day.
        Parking Day comes from the idea that a parking space is an area that you can rent for a few hours, however the item inside the space can be anything, its just that people typically put cars in there. With this information we were challenged to create an opportunity for positive social engagement inside of a parking space.
        We were each assigned a group and theme, ours was Education. After a failed attempt my group and I settled on educating people on Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama. Kusama works heavily in art involving dots. One of her displays, Obliteration Room, is a white room and people are encouraged to place multicolor stickers all over the room. We recreated this by having a pop up tent with white table cloths stretched over two sides to create a corner. We also had white butcher paper on the floor to create space. Participants then were able to cover the area with the stickers we provided.
       We were also able to visit the other Parking Day set ups which was fun because there were dogs. All in all it was a great success and very fun!

What I've Learned in College: End of Freshman Year Fun part 2

Continued from Part 1 8.Cowboys are Real Cowboys are typically seen as people who used to live in the Wild West years and years ago. I honestly think that my grandfather was one of the last American cowboys. While, I wills till continue to this this, I have learned that cowboys are still real! Every once in a while, I will see an old man sporting leather cowboy boots, a blue pair of Wrangler jeans, a button down shirt, a weathered, leather belt, a leather vest, a cowboy hat, a grown out beard, and skin weathered and tan like the leather. I didn’t think people still dressed like this besides for show! This is someone’s real life outfit! I am always astonished to see people like this because I don’t see them regularly. They look like their straight off a horse in ye old west! Students even wear cowboy boots daily! It’s something else. 9. People still pressure you. I don't drink for multiple reasons, and I was under the impression that people don't pressure people i...

How I Know I’m Getting Older

  Family, f riends, and reader(s?),       Good afternoon and I hope this blog post finds you fabulous! It finds me writing outside of a coffee shop during my day off while a stranger sits ten feet away on a Teams Call with her dog next to her. Anyways, it’s been nearly two and a half years since my last post. What have I been up to? A lot. I graduated, got a job, was scared by a man in the dark on the eve of the 2024 Rocky Mountain Showdown and scraped my limbs leading to a permanent (I hope) scar on my left hand in, roughly, the shape of America, and I made more friends. I make myself giggle. Regarding the status of  The Katherine Kazette,  I don’t know if I’m going to post more often now or not, but I do need more creative outlets since graduating. I wonder if I should transfer my blog to substack. I should probably visit their website first. Also, I did use AI for the very cool anamorphs inspired image of me becoming an old lady.       ...

Christmas Memories: Baptist and Breakfast

             Once again it is time to spread Christmas Cheer.  One year during Christmas time my family and I went to a Baptist Church for their music program. Lance was playing guitar at the time and his guitar teacher was a musician in the program and invited us to come. We went and the pastor welcomed everyone as it began. The music was so beautiful and joyful, without a flaw. It played on and on. There were also narrators. I thought their words were recorded, but they weren’t! It was so perfect. The time went on and on and I wondered when the pastor would speak. The program ended and the pastor didn’t speak, it was just a beautiful music program. Afterwards, my family and I went to Mimi’s café and had breakfast. Nowadays, we sometimes go to the music program, because it is such a warming time.  God Bless!
