first week of classes = done.
assessment:
anthropology of mass media was pretty lame. the first day, the professor read the syllabus to us for an hour and a half. turns out, it's a discussion based class so i won't actually learn anything except the opinions of my oh-so-intelligent peers. bite me. i am not excited about this anymore.
modern art history...might be good. the first day he rambled about the meaning of the phrase "modern art" for 3 hours. holy shit, talk about boring. i wrote megan a letter just so i could stay awake. i really hope it gets better though, but i assume it will.
photo was good. my professor is really nice and seems like she's gonna be pretty cool when it comes to assignments and things. the first assignment is hard though. we had to write stories about our lives and then pick one from the class and interpret it with photographs. however, all the stories were very cliche and terribly written, so i guess we'll see what happens. i'm also nervous because i'm still not sure photo is what i want to do with my life and because we have to pick a self directed project in the next 5 weeks to work on for the rest of the quarter and maybe the year. but i have been so uninspired lately, that i don't know what i'm gonna do.
web design was interesting. i feel like a computer nerd and i know a shitton more about html now. it will be cool because the final project is to make a website for ourselves with our resume and portfolio on it which we can use for employers and stuff. so that's exciting and nerve wracking.
i feel like i'm growing up too fast and i'm not ready to graduate already...even though it's not for 2 more years. i don't know what i want to do with my life. i'm pretty sure i'm going to turn anthropology into my minor, instead of just a concentration. i really don't know...
in other news, today is the first time i will have a large amount of free time. i have a lot of errands i need to/want to run, but i wish i had someone to go with me. i hate shopping alone. i guess i just have to suck it up and learn to be more independent.
has it been two years yet? can i leave rochester now? please?
