I'm sitting here in 1st pd. Comp. App.'s with nothing to do, so I figured I'd stop by and let everyone know how glorious my week has been so far. It's been one of the worst weeks I've had all year. I just don't know anymore...I could whine about how my life has been so stressful lately, but that would make me look selfish. Haha, OH well...
Monday - I got to school late, as per usual, so I waited in my car in the parking lot for about 10 minutes to let the announcements end (I work on the morning announcements sometimes, so my 1st pd. teacher thinks I go down there everyday). I walked into class and Ms. Howard handed me a letter informing me that I was in danger of being kicked out of NHS, for missing more than 2 meetings. Well, I have no idea what this means...in danger? It said something like I'd be up for review by the NHS faculty. I can't wait for their decision....
Monday was also the day I thought my CSU exposition art piece was finished. The colored pencil drawing of the deer skull. I show it to Mrs. Butler for her approval, but she says that it doesn't look finished enough for an art show...sooo, I wasted a lot of time over the past weekend for nothing. Time when I could have been at the party on Saturday night with church friends. Mrs. Butler and I got into this long talk about how she was worried about my performance at SCAD when I work so slowly on art projects. To be honest, I've been worried about it too. I don't know what it is. I told her I think part of it is the way I analyze things when I draw. I pick artwork apart detail by detail when I'm working and it really slows me down. What she told me really made an impact on me...I guess I came to that conclusion myself, but when my own art teacher told me the same thing, I knew something was wrong.
Skip Tuesday (ordinary day).
Wednesday - I went to my locker before 3rd pd. (Human Anatomy) and realized my human anatomy notebook is missing. I check the classroom. Not there. Check the main office for lost and found. Not there. Check my house when I get home. Not there. So now I don't know where the hell it is and I have more than a month and half worth of notes in it. We take notes in that class every single day minus test days...so that's a lot of notes...I think I'm just gonna have to start a notebook over again. =/
This week has been full of ups and downs (more downs than ups tho). I need to call my admissions counselor at SCAD to see what they've gotten from me so far. You can't trust them to get your admission materials until like a month or two after you send them off...they're so slow going through all their junk. I haven't had much time for socializing, with whatever meager social life I still have. Schoolwork has caught up with me, especially art class. I'm so far behind in there it's not even funny. Also, I've been sketching at home a lot, wishing I knew how to color some of my stuff in Photoshop. I really can't see how there's so many people on dA who can color with those programs so well...whenever I try I get so frustrated that after about 15 minutes I give up. If I could JUST find a good tutorial...
Still sitting here in class, with about 25 minutes to go before the bell rings. A lot of people complain about the teacher in here (Ms. Howard) because she gets pissed off over the smallest things, but I don't see why people complain in here all the time (I'm a hypocrite). She doesn't care what we do when we finish our work. Of course all the people who are complaining are probably the slow typers. heheh...
This entry is already long enough. Nobody's gonna read it all, so I'll cut it off here.
Peace.
