Re-reading Forge of God. My favorite 'Earth Blows up at the End' novel.

reading those pages in the art book tomorrow. reading because the exam in the humanities class actually looks hard so i might read everything 3 times to really let the material sink in since theres test question on it. yes my reading comprehension isnt the best considering i did amazing in english class. id say my reading comprehension is great for things that interest me but when its boring art, ****s going to take at least a second time in this book.

You’re already making it more difficult than it needs to be by assigning it the label “boring”. Understanding how and why art has shaped our understanding of reality and vice versa isn’t boring at all. It’s amazing and extremely interesting. Taking a class like that is a real privilege. Don’t throw the experience away with the wrong attitude. I guarantee there’s life changing information waiting for you.

I’m hella jelly tbh
