I got my left nostril re-pierced yesterday. I really liked having the double studs, but I suppose with being a working woman, probably not a responsible thing to do. I guess my 'so ho punk pussy' days are over.
It was pierced first with a CBR... and when I looked in the mirror I was pretty distressed. It looked silly to me - way too big for my face. I was a pain in the butt and asked my piercer to change it to a screw. Oh man that hurt. Curved pointy metal through a freshly pierced and sensitized hole.
Yowza.
But I like it now :)
Now, here's a rant about my grades! Last semester I got a 4.0, which is wicked. I've never gotten straight A's before even though I expect nothing less from my theatre classes now. The only thing is, I didn't get it. I straight up told my profs in my post-mortem review that I think I could have handled myself better, than I wasn't particularly pleased with my design work, and I felt like I didn't put as many hours in as I should have. Still got A's, not complaining I guess. THIS semester however, I LOVED what I was doing. I thought my work was high quality, I was immensly happy with all the work I did, and I did waaay more hours outside of class on my projects. I get my grades back... B+ in seminar and paperwork, A- in practicum. Not. Impressed.
But I did acheive my goal of getting an A+ in a theatre class - although it was in acting. Go figure eh. Maybe I pursued the wrong stream.
Then I got a C+ in History and Aesthetics of cinema. The class I hated. So overall I have a GPA of 3.45 something, bringing my CGPA to a 3.2ish. Could be better I guess, although my breadth requirements are dragging me down. Since my second year the lowest grade I've gotten in a theatre course is a B+. Mostly A's and A-'s. I really shouldn't be complaining.
I wish I was academically smart!! Actually no I take that back. I thoroughly enjoy being creative and mechanically inclined. But having my cake and eating it too would be pretty awesome.
Rant's done now.
I could rant about my future room mate until the day I die but I don't think it'll do any good. Might as well make the best of a sticky situation! Positive thoughts, me'dear.
