Today's Encounters

No pictures today but I did have some fun moments.

Apparently law students today feel pressure about the lack of jobs from the moments they set foot on a law school campus. Not good.  They need to embrace the no plan, plan.

When leaving work today I saw a young women with long brown hair except the ends were purple. Everything else about her was so typical suburban that the hair was kinda of a shocker. I loved it.

Biking up Franklin a guy stopped beside me to blast the drivers who keep weaving in traffic causing near death moments for us bikers. I couldn't place his accent, but it was lovely.

Biking in the city is amazing. I feel so speedy and get another perspective on neighborhoods and places I pass through everyday. I keep seeing folks interacting with the red rope sculpture by the lake.  Strangely there are signs on it that say no climbing when it's so clearly so perfect for climbing.

Tampa Spanish Architecture

I've always found this style of architecture gorgeous. When taking a trip to Tampa over the weekend, I couldn't help but snap a few pics.

Mushrooms

Sometimes what catches my eye is unexplainable to me. These mushrooms were kind hideous but were in the middle of an otherwise pretty manicured park. Their unexpected shape just popped out to me and I fell in love.

Architecture Sightings

So for this week we were supposed to find interesting architecture to inspire us for a project. For class, I went with the interesting highlights of otherwise sleek modern buildings. It'll be interesting to see what art comes out of it.

Hobo Family

I don't know why this family decide to be hobos, but the image of a young family on the tracks was so striking I had to take it.

Southern Oak Street

The Oak Lined Streets of Tampa are visually stunning. Google AutoAwesomed and it was interesting to see the effects it added.

Here and Now: Test 1

Here and now, it is way past my bedtime but I'm feeling wide awake. The fan is turning above me and for the first night all week the blinds are not banging against the window. I can hear the cars swishing on the wet road and a faint siren in the distance. The light is way too bright. the sunlight spectrum bulbs make it day although its the middle of the night and there are no shadows.The bed is piled high with pillows stacked haphazardly. And the stillness of the apartment is unsettling. I can smell the coconut oil from my hair and I'm thinking what's next. Can I drift right off to sleep or am I forgetting something important that I have yet to do.
