Edgy at the Edge

Today I was in East Liberty. For those of you who are not from or have ever been to Pittsburgh, it's a run down sort of area, weedy in many spots. Why was I there? Well there was an art gallery opening today. Yes, a Manhattanite art gallery called Edge Studio located on a corner next to a seedy deli that has "BEER" written above a door, and a strip joint with graffiti garishly sprawling over it across the street. Not that Edge is any run down place at all - it's actually very techy and fashionable and all the people there were techy and fashionable. I was there in my ratty student attire, but my beautiful workers cap from G-Star helped me blend in and look Manhattan-chic trendy like. Not that I would've cared anyway. I saw a lot of my classmates - I never realized it before, but many of them are metrosexual, flare jeans on men are strangely attractive, it's like the 70s again. Just as long as mustaches don't come back into fashion...ick.
As for the work itself, apparently several of the students from each year in architecture were selected to show their final projects at the studio. I went to cheer on Gabriel, nice fellow who was in studio all last year with me and is now in my Japanese class. Very cool fellow. I wish I was that creative...
