So... it appears that I will be able to graduate in the spring afterall. This is totally catching me by surprise, because I was expecting summer/fall graduation at the earliest, so now I'm trying to figure everything out that I possibly can. In the end, I'll be happy to get the fuck out of college. I'm sure that if I wasn't in an art major, I'd be happy with it because I'd still have some creativity left, but right now I am soooo fucking drained it's not funny.
Kara and I were trying to figure out where she would like to go to college. Oddly enough, the two top choices were in Oregon and Wisconsin. Only problem is that moving to either of those and having a place to end up in would cost us more money than we'd have. We could do Wisconsin much easier, though, because it's just a shit-ton closer, but her preferred school is still in Oregon. I then recommended that we move up to Wisconsin and work for a year in the damned factory again. This should really give us plenty to save with, as we'd both be making $300-400 a week. By the end of the year, we'll hopefully be able to move to Oregon easily. I'm just not looking forward to being that close to home again, or working in that factory.
As for right now, Kara and I are both working for one of the K-marts in town. I can tell that they were desperate seeing as they called 10 minutes after I filled out my application and I got Kara in, and they still haven't even found her app. Luckily I have a better idea of what I'm doing for animation as my final project, so I can give up more time for work. I just need to get all my projects off to the point where I can just have them render out while I'm at work.
All I know is, I'm resting so much easier now that we have a plan to get us the fuck out of this stupid bible-thumper, republican, hypocritical redneck dump.
