Hello, President Obama!
Huzzah! Yesterday morning we got a new president. I was not sure it was even going to happen, I half thought that Bush would declare a state of emergency and hold the presidency longer, but I think that people have been too pissed at him for that to work. Finally, its over. I feel like i just got out of a bad trip or something. Maybe now everything will be normal?
Speaking of trips, Steven, Will and I want to go to wine country over spring break. Roadtrip! Hooray! I like Will, he reminds me of Stevie. I can talk philosophy to him and maybe exchange ideas. Its a solution to the French coffee house.
Not much else to say, just bored. I have class in a few hours but I am stuck at work till five, so no break for Therese. I want to go home and crawl into bed with steven and watch a movie, like when I was a kid and sick. I want to be warm and comfortable and happy with a snack. Ugh, too bad. I won't even be home till nine and then I will have to work all Thursday and then again Friday night. Then I have to drag my ass out of bed and go to school all day Saturday. And the week started out so well with four and almost five days OFF. It's all crap.
Evergreen is really going to the dogs, actually. They are offering less junior/senior classes than ever and there are about 4 art classes to take that aren't freshman oriented. The kicker? They are cutting the offerings for next year by 25% for EVERYTHING. Evergreen is becoming a "normal" school, which it isn't very good at. In fact, it sucks. I am sad I am here now, at the end of everything truly Evergreen. When I have to write my own advanced classes just to learn techniques, when I have to put up with learning things I already have just because there are no classes that offer anything new in my field. Art here should be prolific and easy to present to the public. Instead, they are painting over all the murals that are already there and limiting the hours of the gallery. It's messed up. I suppose I should get used to this though, it's not like I will have a job after I graduate anyway.
