A Real and True Update
Because I know of three people who will read this. School has me fustrated as hell. I'm really really really tired of the associates program, aka taking classes I have no intrest in and that I have nothing to do with my (eventual) major. I came to art school to make art. I was under the impression that this would involve lots of drawing and painting and fun stuff like that. Istead I spend every class on a goddamn computer, screwing up the assignment because I suck at most of the adobe program (i own at quark tho) thinking to myself "I could just draw this out, and it would be so much cooler". Yeah, the whole design process has gotten easier with computers, but it took all the soul out of it. A lot of kids i go to school with can't draw for shit, but they can make something look good on the screen and peple think they're fucking brilliant. You want a logo for your company? Give me ten minutes and a pen. I'll amaze you.
I'm not the only one who is pissed about this, thank god. I have a feeling that the forced use of computers will lead to riots from fustrated illustrators. Speaking of illistration (what i want to do), I have one illustration class. One. Thats it. I'm and Illustration/Graphic Design major and I have one fucking illustration class.Everythign else is design (oh and photo, which is fun),but not just any design, Advertising design. Yes im going to spend the next month of my life thinking up print ads for Peir One Imports. Thinking up taglines for soda and diet pills or whatever else my jerk proffessors want me to do. Fuck it. I'm dropping out of school to become a preformance artist in washington square park. I'll be broke and homeless most likely, but at least ill get some creatve freedom.
Other than classes sucking, everything is peachy. I still live with one of the most hostile people in the world. Last night i went food shopping and when i came back to the room Tina was in the kitchen making something that smelled like fried garbage (my room still stinks). When i went to put some stuff in the fridge,she was bending down to pen a drawer and she froze half way a stayed perfecty still like i'm a dinosaur and i can't see her nless she moves. But colleen is awesome and makes me baked brie, and a poached apples soon i hope.
Yeah, the school friends are good and i'm making more which is cool. it's kinda wierd not to see everyone i hung out with when i was seeing brian, but when i spend more that five minutes around him i want to bash his skull open. I'm a grudge holder for certain. Those kids where kind of elitist anyway. Everyone else (pretty much the people who come hang out in my room+ some others) are awesome. It's hard at a school like pratt to weed through all the assholes to find the people that are fun and nice. Pratt is a sea of suck sometimes.
I miss the new jersey crew alot. All the time. I have to get home soon to see everybody. I feel bad but school has been keeping me busy to the point of insanity.
Rob is a hundred different types of amazing and thats all I can say with out getting really mushy and annoying.I like him alot and I'm really happy he keeps wanting to see me.
I'm sorry that I've kinda been neglecting everybody this week and last, but I've had so much work and I've just been generally kind of depressed with my whole school situation. I haven't gotten a good nights sleep since thursday or friday of last week. I'm really really tired all the time but I end up staying up really late anyway. I'm not very bright some times.
Well i finally updated like i kept saying i would. i hope someone reads this so i don't feel like an asshole.
