so when the birds fly south, i'll reach up and hold their tails
I am back at goucher now, and as i'm driving there i get a text from the book author, wanting me to check my email. apparently she wants to finish the book with me, she mentioned my need of getting paid, but she didn't really go into it at all, and she seemed to think i needed to do 32 images, i'm fairly sure its more, i'll have to check. dan says i should gauge how much time itll take to finish 32, and charge hourly. he helped me write up a little contract, he suggested $25 an hour, but that seems like a lot... i dunno. i need to email her tomorrow though. i want to finish it but at the same time she is so frustrating to work with! blah.
at least i can include the book in my essay i should be typing now, for the rosenberg scholarship.
i saw the lovely bones tonight with alec, it was good, but so so so sad. i got bleary eyed in so many parts. i thought they did a good job of making things look 70's-y, and i'm glad they left out the violent rape and murder scene, not to mention the fact that he cut her up into little pieces and hid her in a burlap sack in a safe. i read the book when i was 14 or 15, i was dreading those parts in the movie, but i kind of figured showing the rape of a cute little 14 year old girl was probably not going to fly for most audiences... unless of course it was Lifetime or something.
i just hate rape scenes in general... they're way too disturbing for me to watch.
This week is really uneventful, todays classes were cancelled and i only have one tomorrow. Then i have three on friday, and then Bitsy comes to visit! exciting, i missed her.
I wish more of my friends had stayed at Goucher, they all transferred, and one of my last ones just dropped out because his grades were so low. I'll get to see Elaine, Libbie, Maya, and even Jasmin once phonathon starts up, i've always hated the job, but i've grown fond of it this past year to some extent because of the people i work with.
