Side-effects. ARE NOT FUN. Seriously, I would really rather be at home right now, even if I then would be unable to bitch in an LJ post about how not fun side-effects are.
(As a side-note, I'm really only half paying attention to this - Mr Murray is talking about layer masks, and since Elements 3.0 doesn't really seem to have it, I actually want to learn how to do this. Which is really another topic altogether, because I could probably mock this entire lecture if I tried.)
Mrs Lake continues to be an idiot. "What are your topics?" she asks me. "Media-created corruption," I answer, "and space." She makes me repeat it a few times, and then says, "What do you mean by space? Do you mean-" "Space, as in--" I cut her off. "Do you mean outer space, or space between people?" she cuts me off. "Outer space," I try again, "as in--" "Oh, okay," she cuts me off again.
She then proceeds to talk about how excellent a topic it is, and that she's going to have to talk to me about it sometime because she could give me a ton of ideas. Then, later, when she's talking about how we need something to base our research on, she says, "For instance - you're the one who said space, right?" I nod. "For instance, you could use that movie, that..." "Apollo 13?" Trevor suggests. "Star Wars?" someone else chimes in. "No, that one movie..." she searches for the title. "Wall-E!" Blink. "Wall-E?" echoes at least half the class.
Never mind the fact that, if she hadn't cut me off those two times, I would have said, "Space, as in the history of space exploration, and why we Have Not Boldly Gone Where No Man Has Gone Before," which has absolutely nothing to do with Wall-E. The film Wall-E has absolutely nothing to do with space at all! I mean, yeah, okay, robots. Yeah, okay, the morbidly obese remnants of the human race are chillin' on a space ship out in space. But the movie was about being green! Sustainability! Not space!
...okay, three paragraphs about her is enough. ): Melissa lent me her copy of Thirteen Reasons Why; I'm not very far into it but I really like it so far. Explaining the story to Mr Murray, however was made of awkward.
(Speaking of, the lecture isn't going so well. He finally figured out how stretch the mask so that the lamppost wouldn't be in the background, but he failed at actually explaining how he did it. So he's going around the classroom right now trying to help everyone unPhotoshop-savvy enough to figure it out on their own. I figured it out on my own.)
Um. Watching this girl who sits in front of and to the left of me look at fanfic, though I'm not sure what fandom it is. I probably don't actually want to know.
I'm actually really bored right now. It's probably painfully obvious, but I figure it bears mentioning.
Last night I had to explain the Game to my mom. (I just lost the Game.) Because, you see, she heard my phone beep that it had received a text! (It doesn't beep, for the record. It makes a noise, but that noise is not a beep.) I couldn't really get it, because I'd just gotten out of the shower, so I tell her, "It's in the pocket of my brown jacket; could you please get it for me?" She does so. And I see that yes, I did have a text. It said, "I lost" and was from "Mao". (Speaking of Mao, Mrs Lake has officially reached Mao levels of crazy.) So I swore, said, "Damn it, I just lost the Game," and set about "C.C." and "Lloyd". And then had to explain the Game to my mom while I tried to dry off so I could get dressed. Unsurprisingly, she didn't get it. (I had to explain it to Rachael during advisory when I told Brody that I lost the Game. She didn't get it, either.)
I'm thinking of uploading a different Joshua icon... or I would be, if I actually, you know, could. But I, you know, can't. I kind of wish I had a paid account, just so that I could have more icons that I never use. But instead, I have only one or two that I use just enough that I'd notice if they were gone. ):
I hate drawing with a mouse into Photoshop. But, I guess, I might just be bored enough to do that. |: Also, I left early yesterday, because of - you guessed it - a headache and a really not-cool nauseated feeling. Of course, I'm not technically finished with my charcoal portrait yet, oops, so since I wasted all of yesterday I'll have to do that today. .___.;
