Blaaaarrrrgh...
Jan. 31st, 2007 05:22 pmHurray for a totally weird, long, kinda "cool" but freakishly annoying, ridiculous and stressful day.
I know I've ranted and bitched about it before... but I hate, HATE the way art classes are kept and runned. Asside from the fact every teacher that teaches just plain typical "art" are just about always so hippy-like. But then there's the other people where they're draw just a smudged little squiggle and then "MY GOD IT'S BRILLANT!".
That's partly why I want to go more into animation than just basic 'art'... I don't WANT to express "how I feel", I don't want to people to "understand my life" through my work... All the just want to do it make stuff and dammit have fun doing it. My characters and muses are pretty much like my children, and I literally want them to come out and 'play' when I can let them and they stay with me forever(even them many I don't seem to use anymore). None of this surreal bullshit, how hard is that to freakin understand? .... Cuz it never feels like anyone ever does in those classes... I guess I'm not so much an "artist", but really just a "cartoonist" -.-; (especially when usually art teachers think lowly and turn down 'cartoon-like' pieces of work >___>;; )
Eh, but other than ever prolonged pet peeve, that class seems pretty cool.. waaaaaay too long in my opinon, but also the length is there so everything can get done right then and there (than stressing my ass off at home because it's still unfinished). At least he's merciful to offer a big break period between the class, especially since otherwise there's no way I can eat lunch those days(and the days I'm going to need it most).
English, on the other hand..... Sounds freakishly awesome XD;;. First cool thing? Brand new, very loose-basedinsane teacher.... Second cool thing? FANTASY/ADVENTURE PROMPTS AND THEMES THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE SEMESTER!! (We have Wizard of Oz as one of the "required texts"... XD)... and there's something about watching a few movies and such throughout the semester too. And I doubt she was really being that serious about it... but if we get done with everything with still alot of time left over, there was something about having a fantasy roleplay.. XD
... I'm just not looking forward to doing ANOTHER research paper at the end.... ;-;. Maybe mine won't be so hideous this time though, now I KNOW better what I should have done... >__>;;
.... But then there was big complication with trying to get home -__-;. Got out early and noticed that at the bus stop there was a TON of people waiting outside it, a whole lot more than usual. Turns out there was at LEAST 2-3 buses that just never made it.. -.-;. Soo, I sat out there for probably 30, 40 minutes with everybody else, getting REALLY pissed since I should've been home by now... FINALLY a bus came.... only he wasn't going to leave until another 30 minutes, meaning I wasn't going to get home until way over another HOUR if I continued to wait >__>;;... Eventually got so fed up and ended up calling my mom to pick me up...... and once again, had to hear the whole "thisiswhyyouneedtogetyourlicsense,rar" bitching, ALL THE WAY HOME ~___~;;
.... I'm so sorry the big decaying monster van that sits you at 50 kajillion feet above the ground, that you need a ruler on both sides just you KNOW you're not driving on more than one lane.... And along with constant dead batteries, tires of burning death(let alone wheels that keep going to one side), and lord knows what other issues that thing has scares the hell out of me..... I'll try to be a little more braver just so get myself killed, just so you'll just freakin SHUT UP about it... >___>;
