Existential Highlights of an aspiring architect

Sometimes i am baffled by the inanity of what i do.  Don’t get me wrong, I love architecture, but occasionally, there’ll be a moment when i’m doing something and all of a sudden i’m like, what am i doing with my life???  Here are some highlights:

Incident 1:  Spending an afternoon drawing rain gutters on a house, and then admiring how nice the gutters look because i managed to add a little bit of curvature in there.

Incident 2:  Using the lasso tool in Photoshop around some random dude’s crotch for an hour to get a clean edge  so that i can then use the picture in a montage.

Incident 3:  Printing, then reformatting, then re-printing a document because the font i used was perhaps 1pt size too small.

I’m sure there are plenty of others, but these were the ones off the top of my head.  Share yours.

And just as a random sidemark:  What’s the difference between being Danish and a Dane?  Do people refer to themselves as Danish or Dane?  This has been my preoccupation for the past 2 days and i Wikipedia-ed this and i still don’t know.  But juicy tidbit: there are actually 56,916 people living in Greenland!
