I went to the chicago cultural center puppet exhibit and these are the only pictures I took

(Courtesy of the puppetqueers)
A sheet of paper with notes in many colors from different people. It says "bring back killing politicians" "fart a ton" "wear what ever you want" "have more gay sex + independent film" A sheet of paper answering the question of why being queer is so great. Someone wrote in blue: "the way we are inherently sexy and sophisticated" Then, right below it, usint purple, someone drew a strange sea creature with a protuberant mouth and wrote "being awesome"

A cluttered brown dining table with four new brown chairs. They match! Two brown 1980s dining chairs with white floral cushions that have mysterious brown stains.

New BFFs
The Monster High dolls Honey Swamp and Twyla, laying on the floor next to each other in cute poses that evoke floating. They are both pastel and kind of match! Honey has teal and pink color scheme and Twyla has a teal and lavender color scheme. You can especially see their contrast with Honey's pink shoes against her teal skin and Twyla's teal shoes against her lavender skin. They both have short girly floral dresses. Honey has a curly teal afro adorned with a little pink hat. Twyla has wavy teal hair with purple streaks and little spider clips holding her hair out of her face. The Honey and Twyla dolls posed to be playing the tabletop game together. Honey has rolled the dice and is gasping at the result. Twyla also looks affronted with her hands up. A close up of the dice roll. It's two ones. A critical failure. Honey is posed as if begging Twyla, the DM, to reconsider her terrible roll. Twyla puts her hands up as if it is out of her control.

I have a love of Monster High and I did it...I got the one who plays tabletop games.
A photo of a pastel purple skinned, teal haired doll. She is Twyla from Monster High. She is holding a d14 die. It's a bit too big for her tiny doll hand. Twyla holding a character sheet for a game that seems to be called H in H, like DnD. The character on the sheet is a rabbit. A Twyla doll laying on the floor with her hair sprawled out in teal waves. She has a cute frilly purple dress, haunting teal eyes, and a dark purple lip color. Her hands are held out limp like a ghost. Pink designs swirl across her skin like a strange dream. A doll sized battle map for a tabletop game. It is a purple grid with a model of a spooky house. Two mini figures of rabbits are having a standoff.

Merry Christmas To All Of Us
Sketches of Ruby and Nicole from Bistro Huddy. Ruby is square and short and grumpy. Nicole is round and tall and beautiful. Sketches include them staring at each other in a defiant and flirty way, and a sloppy doodle of them making out.

Do a Power Bomb studies :)
Ink sketches of muscular wrestlers in dynamic poses: screaming and brandishing fists, slamming something down. Ink drawings. One of two bandaged hands reaching for each other. One of a muscular girl in a leotard wiping the blood off her nose, clenching her fists.

No cheating: your last saved pic of a celebrity is your therapist

Haha uh oh
Jason Momoa as his character Dante from the movie Fast X. A tall muscular man poses cutely, his hip cocked and his hands perched under his beard. He is in head to toe pasted lavender clothes, has big chunky jewelry, sunglasses, and a curly high ponytail in a scrunchie.

Drawing my OWN ocs while listening to Gutter
A pen sketch of two people: a bearded fat person with a dark bun, a hairy chest, and big sweet eyes. A taller person with light, flat, straight hair and beady eyes and a large backpack. They are looking up to the night sky.

I was weirdly obsessed with how they had to put the animals down
Text from the essay: "But that cat, that sweet old tom, he had to go." A roughly drawn comic on lined paper. Likely an exersize that was party of writing the short story. It has three panels. First titled Look At Me: two men hold each other, looking concerned. Second titled The Dogs: a man pointing a gun at a dog. Third titled Try To Ignore: Men cringing on the other side of a block of ice, hearing the dogs being shot.

Cleaning out my old room at my parent's house and finally found the creative writing assignment I got freshman year of high school where we had to write something inspired by The Odyssey.

I wrote Ernest Shackleton fanfic, essentially.
A photo of an essay titled Thoughts Beside the James Caird. A story About the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1914 to 1917). It is marked with teacher's corrections, and says the following: The wind was chilling. It had always been there: Strong, icy winds that never seemed to let up. It was as if this wind was the only thing that Ernest Shackleton knew. Well, Perhaps it was, Considering that he and his crew had been braving this harsh punishment for over a year. He had memorized its scent, its feel, its taste. He saw nothing the gusts blinded him. But the wind was with him, too. It was the wind that brought him here, to South Georgia Island as he rode on the lifeboat, the James Caird, with hand-picked men. The wind led him as he led them across the tireless ocean, the rest of his crew waiting hopefully on Elephant Island. These men were counting on him. They wanted to live. They wanted to survive. He wouldn't let a single one die. This was his new mission, now that his dreams to be the first to cross the South Pole were nonexistent. Shackleton, being the "Ultimate Leader", would not give up. He was an explorer, a man of expeditions. This was his life. He leaned against the fired frame of the James Caird as John prepared what meager dish they could make to satiate their hunger. He remembered his ship, his beautiful ship, the Endurance. He saw her slowly be crushed and engulfed by the hungry ice. The men salvaged what they could as her glory was demolished in a slow, painful gulp. It had taken what...seven, eight months for the ship's drift to end in destruction? The crew had watched with melancholy hearts, holding on to their belongings as some of their hope sunk softly. A teacher's note on the essay that says "Homeric, sort of"

The character Anders Lassen from the movie The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. He is a buff, tan man with short light hair and tiny round eyeglasses. He is sitting with a lackadaisical posture on the deck of a boat, while smiling.
