My soul's downloading period

I am stuck. The end of the semester is near. I am buried in deadlines and schoolwork. Four more weeks!! For my Design 101 class, I need to create a gestural model to represent : Urban Development (huh?!?*%#$) My first idea flopped. All my other ideas have been crap. While I live under the idea that we are always exactly where we are suppose to be and everything happens for a reason, things aren't coming together fast enough...and when I say fast enough I mean, by my princess banana standards.

Erykah Badu, (who I super duper heart), once said in an interview that she didn't believe in writer's block, that the time when we feel stuck or like we're not creating, is just our soul's downloading period. I love that. Sometimes when I feel like I'm not making any progress, I try to remember my insides are working and when it's time, it'll come out. I just need to trust the process.

In the meantime, I am looking for some inspiration. Recommended by my teacher, I am moved by some really amazing pieces by Tara Donovan.
