Wow, two weeks in already. Time is absolutely flying through this semester already. This afternoon I sat down and started thinking how peculiar it is that as humans we look at time as flexible - at some times in life time seems to fly by quicker than we could possibly imagine, like on vacation. At other points time seems to not be moving at all, like in a business meeting with that boss you hate or a tough class. However, never have I ever heard anybody say retrospectively that time passed slowly. Retrospectively, time always flies by... it is at a constant rate/speed of "too fast", which is simply put as 24 hours per day...I suppose that's why old people always say that you better enjoy life because it goes by quick. I kind of got to wondering why God programmed humans to look at time as a sort of an ongoing exponential function... going by slowly at first but always going faster as time goes on. It's kind of an irrational way to view life, but nonetheless it keeps things interesting.

This weekend I worked a film conference and decided to take some pictures of the building I was working in, not that it was particularly special...it's just that you run out of things to do when you spend 16 hours sitting in a desk and just have to 'supervise'. I also snapped some pictures of the sunrise Saturday morning on my walk through the city to get to work.
This is part of the structural supports for the theater we were using. From the looks of it, it must be Noah from the Bible perhaps? That looks an awful lot like an ark, not that I've ever seen a real ark... but IF I HAD seen an ark before, I bet that's what it would look like, haha.
 This is the theater we were using.
 This room is surprisingly warm and cozy for an office building. It's where we hosted the guests for meals, as suggested by the giant dining table.


Here's my collection of morning photos in New Haven. I had a thing for taking pictures in the middle of the street that morning. I really like the first picture... I feel like it captures New Haven in the winter very well.
