So, while everyone else is excited to get out of school, I realized that I start my visual arts class sometime soon. I'm not really sure when I'm supposed to show up or what time I have to be there, and I really don't want to find out either because finding out would make it real. It would mean that I will have to start waking up early in order to endure an hour long bus ride to school (Or, you know, ask my daddy to drive me... which I may or may not have been doing since October... UBC is far away! And when the cops were doing that investigation on the highway, it made going to school ten times as tedious). It will also mean that over a month has gone by since I got out of school and that I have nothing to show for it except for TONS of sleep, a few extra pounds, and $0.96 in my bank account, as well as a bill for $113.18
.. So, technically, I have -$112.22.
If I had red curls and lived in an orphanage, it'd definitely be a hard knock life.
... :(
On the bright side, I am actually kind of sort of excited to be doing something more productive! Also, my course sounds pretty cool. Apparently, it "provides foundation level instruction in basic computer skills, image manipulation and digital media. The nature and role of digital media in contemporary culture, with special emphasis on applications in visual art, theatre, film and creative writing, will be examined." Yeah, I just forced myself to find out when my class starts (on the sixteenth apparently... which isn't good because NTS: I haven't changed my availability at work yet!!!!). From what my friends have told me about the class, I might be able to coerce my parents into getting me a better computer for this course. Or, maybe it'll just motivate me to finally bring my laptop into Future Shop to get it fixed for the millionth time. Either way, I am getting a new laptop... hopefully. I just hate it when they take mine away for three weeks and give it back to me, unfixed. Urghhh.
Anyway, I am going to turn the fan on now because I am feeling sick-ish. My dad is making one of his nasty, "healthy" vegetable drink concoctions that consist of mostly celery. As much as I like celery, I'm allergic to it and the scent makes me gag/cough forever.
