Oy.. a slight change in plans, guys.
Instead we'll be leaving on Saturday, probably mid-day or early evening. Stay at a hotel overnight and then continue to Kentucky for the services.
Such much death lately.. it's depressing t.t

Oi vey.. there's just so much going on lately it's ridiculous! After my art class today (which was a.."field trip".. not even a field trip to the main campus which has a mini art gallery) I really began to feel like my art teacher was trying to set us all up to fail. Because even though she got rid of 2 assignments due to lack of time (an album cover and children's illustration) she's still expecting 2 bug drawings (1 in pencil and the other pen-inked) by this thursday's class =/
And with this thursday.. I mentioned it on dA, is the day of my art show at the college. Even though a lot of my art class is partaking in this, the teacher is giving us no leniency whatsoever or extra class time to do work. She's just all "OH do it outside of class, you all got time." Uh.. Ms.. NO WE DON'T.
In addition to the pencil and ink drawings, another one of the "bug drawing steps" (making it out of typography) to do be done completely outside of class... and to be done on the computer. I mean I have photoshop so I -can- do this, but one of my classmates spoke up since she and her friend also in the class don't have PS. What did my teacher say? "Stay in the computer lab and work on it." ... I mean.. come on?! Nobody wants to stay their for 3+ hrs to work on a project, plus usually all the mac comps are taken by the time you get to the lab. Oh and we also have to make a poster of our animal drawings in PS, again.. outside of class.
And this isn't even half of it. I have a brunt-load of English work to do (revise essay, take week 10 quiz, make PP presentation of essay, exit essay, and finish online week 9+11 posts.) And then add business class, where me and my partner have little time to finish our group project. Though for me it's: Feasibility analysis for business plan, PP presentation of business plan for the class *not looking forward*, and combine all business plan stuff together.
No offense to some people but PLZ don't ask so many questions if you respond to this x.x and if you don't like vents, don't read or comment. I just feel like I wanna screaaaam due to the overworking..
Why can't summer be here already? ;c;

OMG! I would end up writing a poem about me falling from a second story window! You are definitely stressed out Nemo! O.O. I mean I would definitely freak out if I had to go what you are going with at the moment!
And by the sound of your art teacher, I think she is testing your patience with her. Then again I might be wrong.
I will say that you'll get through this. And I know, you'll feel a lot better when you get this behind you. Cause I believe in you ;3

DANG! I can see why College Work would be stressing you out, Nemo! You're teacher says to do the Thursday Show stuff outside the class, whilst at the same time giving you stuff to do outside class!? Something tells me, all her previous class members were Superman! Cause how she expects you to do all of that in a small amount of time is beyond my guessing. =s
You do have a stressful scheduel, so it seems. However, I have faith in you! You're a Smart girl and you are capable of great things! ;3 We'll be right here to offer you support whenever we can! <3
We can also help you celebrate when all the stress if lift off of you too, if you like. *Hugs tight* X3

It is ridiculous, honestly. And it's just weird because before I registered for this class, somebody I knew who took it before me said you did a majority of the work in the class. Guess she wanted to change it =/ that and when I also tried to explain to her WHY I have a lack of time and why I've been stressed, she basically just said "you have to deal with it in the real world blahblahblah.."
Yeah... that sure helps /sarcasm/
But also my business class is worrying me. Since unlike MOST of the class, it's only me and my friend Rob in our group.. since nobody wanted to join our group. WHILE one group has 5 people in it =/ And the other groups have 3-4 people in them. And my friend doesn't have net at home currently since he's moving. Oh yeah and we have to present our business plan to the class -.-;
Overall.. way too much work.. thank you Bab t.t

Yeaaaaaah, real good advice from your teacher Nemo @.@. It's sounds to me your instructor doesn't care how stressed out you are, but only cares about the work being completed! T.T
I am feeling sorry for you Nemo. And I feel what you felt when nobody else wanted to join your work group. That happened to myself when I was in school.

*hugs for all*
This is an expression, and a mini absence I guess rolled into one. I'll be gone today from 5-7PM (possibly later) since today is my art show at the exhibit. Set up my table yesterday for it, but I'm a bit nervous ;x; so I'm wearing a dogtag necklace I got from my friend, Jay. It has the superman logo for the Christopher Reeve Foundation. Back to art show.. I haaate dressing up x.x and we have to stand the whole time, lesigh. I just hope it goes well.
For the expression.. I pretty much lost all respect for my art teacher today. First was because at beginning of class she announced we were presenting our collage projects, 1 by 1 in front of the class and talking about it. Which of course she springs up on us today.
But AFTER that is when my respect went down. She pulled us out of the class 1 by 1 to talk to us about our current bug drawing project. Where she began saying that she doesn't like how I'm "frustrated" with my projects in that class. So then I begin explaining to her how my life has well.. been bad as you guys know. This goes out her ear and THEN she says "Chelsea, you're being a downer and it's affecting the other students."
First of all I don't even TALK to the other students (besides 1 guy named Logan). Secondly I have never voiced my frustration aloud, I just wrote about it in our daily "journals." But to me, that was just a low blow of respect. I even explained to her how my grandmother died last week and was gone all weekend for her services.. went in 1 ear.. out the other. My other teachers have given some form of sympathy.. this teacher has not (and I'm not begging for it, just explaining this.)
Wow this post is long. Basically I just really could use some luck right now since there's 2 weeks left in this quarter. And well, for the art show today ~3~

Woaaaaaah, it's like your art teacher has a heart of stone O.o! What a cruel woman. Saying something that you actually didn't did. X.x
Ahhh and good luck in the Art Show =) and I know you can pull through the last 2 weeks <3
