Wall Plates
My second quarter spent co-oping in New York City, I lived with four fellow UC students. As would be expected from students of one of the top Architecture and Interior Design schools in the country, all were quite creative in decorating the place. Much of the furniture was found on the street, yet still maintained a consistent (albeit evolving) theme for the place. My roommate Alan was buying dishes from IKEA when he came up with this concept for inexpensive art work. One of the sixteen cardboard cutouts refused to stay on the wall, so we resolved to replace it with a clock. Of course, we didn’t have a clock, so a wristwach made for a good substitute.
Of course, some of our artwork was more spontaneous than others. We left a candle burning in the bathroom one day, and returned to find melted wax had overtaken the countertop.
While co-oping in New York, I decided to take a bus to Boston to see some of my UC friends who were co-oping there. We took a train about an hour out of town, and spent some time walking up and down the beach.
