Things I Love Thursday



This week, I loved:

Staying in bed while drinking Hot Chocolate * Cookies and Cake for all three meals of the day * Plans for the weekend * talking to my Art History teacher about exciting art things * Looking at beautiful jewelery and getting something beautiful * My addiction to Pinterest(more on that later) * Coming up with silly blog ideas * Having three snow days in a row(!!!) * Eating Purple Burrito * wearing my red Toms and a red cardigan * Birthday mail!  I love getting things in the mail! * This essay I read that I thought was interesting. * Having hours on Pandora again

I am deeply, profoundly obsessed with Google Art Project.  If you haven't heard of it, I encourage you to look at it NOW.  You get to explore a number of museums around the world, and take a close look at selected works of art.  I basically had a joy-gasm exploring this website.  I guess this means that I chose the correct major, right?  Art gets me all kinds of excited.  And, you can create your own virtual gallery on it!  How cool is that?  I really enjoy looking at the Van Gogh's on here, especially zoomed in.  It amazes me that I can see the texture of the thick layers of paint on Starry Night or Wheat Field with Cypresses.  Or, I could see the details of a woven tapestry.  THIS might be my favorite.

    I just walked through the Palace of Versailles while sitting on my couch.

    You are my favorite person in the world right now for posting this website.
