Anche quest'anno, a fine maggio Como ha ospitato nelle sue piazze i lavori creativi degli studenti di Como. Il tema di quest'anno era: "I Colori". Ed anche se la mia scuola non ha partecipato, la creatività cromatica e la voglia di stare insieme non sono di certo mancate!

I took it to work . We played some games with it...

On October 10, 2014, the Museum hosted a members and sponsors preview event for the opening of “XOXO: An Exhibit About Love & Forgiveness.”

“XOXO” is an exhibit where families can come together in a place that fosters conversations and interactive experiences that bring love and forgiveness to the forefront of families’ minds.

“XOXO” was created by Children's Museum of Pittsburgh with support from The Fetzer Institute. DuPage Children’s Museum is the first museum to host the traveling exhibit after its first installation at Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh.

I can just see the meeting now...

bureaucrat 1: What are we going to call this new building?

bureaucrat 2: Could we perhaps name it after the noble benefactor who financed it's construction?

bureaucrat 1: NO!

bureaucrat 3: What if we named it after an inspiring visionary who has shaped the progression of this field?

bureaucrat 1: CERTAINLY NOT!

bureaucrat 4: What about...engineering......TWO!

bureaucrat 1: I like it

bureaucrat 2: Yes!

bureaucrat 3: it has pizzaz, clever, especially because it's the second engineering building. And it certainly couldn't cause any confusion or undue complication when refering to rooms *inside* the building.

bureaucrat 2: hmmm, perhaps we could hide all the floormaps and number the rooms haphazardly with no particular ryhyme or reason?

bureaucrat 1: Perfect, that way navigation will only be possible through extensive experience and hard to come by insider knowledge. exquisite!

bureaucrat 5: Wait, what if we tore this entire concrete monstrosity down and replaced it with something that was interesting and visually inspiring, hell we could even use modern developments in energy conservation to make it environmentally sustainable. I mean we could use longstanding observations about innate human psychology to create a building that promoted physical and emotional health. In the long run the UC would save millions of dollars on energy and healthcare. I bet it would also attract the brightest and best students from around the world, improving our repuation and fulfilling our committment to educate the public.

bureaucrat 1: huh? i totally just zoned out during that.

bureaucrat 2: no i like the name. How about grey on grey for the sign?

bureaucrat 3: subtle...I love it! .....

When I want to pass the time & dab into my creative "bug", I make bracelets...aka Arm Candy:)) I find myself spending up to an hour or more, browsing the bead isles in Michaels & Hobby Lobby. I LOVE coming up with unique pieces & have passed this hobby onto my kiddos (esp. my 13-y/o son).
