eight minute abs

me and my housemate have been doing this video for a week straight.  our abs are firming.

the sketchbook project

"The Sketchbook Project is a constantly evolving library of artists' sketchbooks from across the globe."
to all you creative people out there, this is the project for you!  after signing up, an empty sketchbook is sent, filled (by you), sent back, and then put with the thousands of other books.  a tour is taken across America to display the arts, then eventually placed in the Brooklyn Art Library for all to see!
ready, set go! 

if you enjoyed the samples above, there are many more to be seen here in the digital library!

3.) I'm learning Debussy's Claire De Lune on the piano this Christmas break.  it's one of the most enchanting songs.  have a listen:
