School's a Bitch, School Teachers are Bastards....
Because I said I would, the saga that was my schooling failure...
So, I was all prepared to go to school....Looking forward to it really, but then it happened (dun dun duuuuuunnnnn). I got me a call from the head of computer animation and character design (NOT comics and illustration, which is the course I applied for, but the head of ANOTHER course in Mohawk). The head of this porgram (who's name I cannae remember) said that due to the economy, and the fact that there was serious lack of proper applications for the comics and illustrations course, the course I applied for was cancelled. the head of computer animation and character design had called me so that he could convince me to change my course and go into his (most likely so that HIS course wouldn't be cancelled due to lack of interest and the economy :D)
well, the phone number from which he called me checked out (God bless call display) so I knoew it wasn't just some ass trying to prank me. I called the comics and illustrations head, and couldn't get ahold of them, I also called the head of the graphic design course, which "comics" is under, and couldn't get ahold of her. I left numerous messages and never got a response. I called the head of computer animation and character design and asked for more details. turns out that they will be doing the course again next year, but there will no longer be a need for prerequisits (like, say, GENERAL ARTS AND SCIENCE!!!) so THAT was a waste of money (but not time, I did enjoy it....for the most part :P)
they were planning on making the comics course a two year course as of next year. This meant that, with the year off in between, and the two years of courses next year, I'd be in school, and living at home untill I was 29 or 30. I had one response to that...
FUCK NO!!!
I loves my parents, and they have been all nice and kind and generous to let me live here this long, but I gots to get the hell out of here before I go BATSHIT!!! It was a course that I was taking this course for my own entertainment only. A Mohawk art course is NOT gonna get me a career...EVER. I met one of the guys who went through the comics course, he's dating a coworker of mine. He is now a manager of the Silver City in Ancaster, and living with his parents at 32. No-Fucking-Thanks.
As time moved on, I realized that I was actually looking forward to going back to work. I've probably said this a million times, but I miss disposable income. I'm saving, and planning, and HOPEFULLY moving out in a year's time....maybe less.
So yeah...That's the entire saga....wheeeeeeee :S
Also.....This may be the last time I get to use my School-a-cide icon :D
