we entered san francisco late last nite.. yummy.. long road trip and we were tired so we crashed big time. when we woke up in the morning, we headed out to berkeley so that i could check out the environment (still doing the grad school panic). i was shockingly impressed by it. first, i found that canney, the prof out there is much younger than i thought and has some great ideas. he totally knew judith and visual who and we talked for over 1.5 hours about everything from educational philosophies to user interfaces. i found that i could do berkeley and it is back on the list of schools that i am definitely considering. thus, i just need to determine if i have a chance of getting in….

wow.. how i do love my girlie friend in san fran.. she made arrangements for us to go to a performance arts show when we arrived in san fran. to say it was fabulous is a bit of an understatement. nothing could be better. she brought a freshly rolled joint from berkeley and we smoked in in waiting of the performance. it was kinda like rent, kinda like blue man group, kinda, kinda, kinda. basically, it was a performance of music, rhythem, dance and flow. they played with fire, with strobe lights, with acrobats. their bodies manipulated in most astounding fashions. absolute beauty within one’s body… intense relationships between sound and dance.
