misprints

So finally got an email back from MICA about the odd number of credits on my degree plan, and it turns out they have totally screwed me over because there were an EXTRA 2 advanced photo electives required that I have never been told about till yesterday that I now have to try and fit in before december!!! So, after panicking and cursing for a small while, I emailed Tom to see if I could still do the independent study with him (somehow I went from 12 credits to 18 in the matter of three days) and either do another independent or internship as elective credit over the summer or see if Alex will let me apply digital 2 work to senior thesis in which case i will take 18 fall semester as well (apparently they recommend 12, and i already have to take 15 but it seems like such a waste to have to stay another semester for just 2 classes).

So aggrivating.

Apparently Alex is out of the country until friday though so I'll talk to him then and I'm also waiting to hear back from Tom and Kara.

After class we made dinner and then went to Zam Zams for a pizza party at which I ate no pizza. Then we went to Logue's and I had my first full guinness that I didn't split with someone. It was good, I had them (or rather, I had Harris) put blackcurrent? blackberry current? one of those. some kind of strong fruit juice in it. It was good. We also came up with a name for the collective videos they will eventually be posting for the Time Arts class (Which I am not in fact taking, but I get to be an honorary member regardless haha). I forget the exact spelling but it is something like "Rafjeed; The Perfect Human" or something along those lines haha.

Then we went home (And the "we" that was at Logues and then went back to our house was me, Amber, Harris, Franz, Beki, Elizabeth & Tyler) and watched Watership Down (again, well last time it was only Amber and I).



Today I re-read all of Alice in Wonderland. Martina keeps telling me to only focus on one tiny thing, when I'd rather take bits and pieces and form them into something new, but I'll do it her way for next week but do it my way in general and continue on with that, because I cannot make a whole 15+ body of work on, say, "the rabbit pulled out its pocket watch but she didn't find it strange". I don't want to focus on a piece of an existing story, I want to be inspired by different scenes and have them help me make my OWN story. I mean come on, they already won't let me do creative writing, they could at least let me do that.

Well, anyway, I say with Chris (Attenborough) at lunch today. He's going to take me with him when he goes to see Mikey Sunday so hopefully Mikey will let me take portraits of him for the next three weeks ago since Martina said I had to choose only ONE person to photograph instead of several. ARGH.


Anyway I think Shelby and I are going to go explore the fairy forest behind our house so hopefully it stays sunny.
