Making a mood board should not be this hard. =_= Especially since it’s for a stamp. But ider if he said we could use already existing art (since we wouldn’t actually be showing it to anyone, and if he does go and show people his students’ work, I can just ask him to remove mine or smth), so I actually have no ideas for a theme. THEMES LIKE ‘EMOTIONS’ OR ‘SPECIAL EVENT’ DON’T REALLY CUT IT, PROFESSOR. DDDDDx
Although we do have the option to use American literature as a theme and I am so tempted to make a stamp that just has text on it. Sort of like an icon. :I Or I can copy Hazel and use “The Yellow Wallpaper.”
Actually, I kinda wanna use Marvel comics as a theme now, but hell if I can draw it/make the theme clear without blatant copyright violation. :I
AND IT’S NOT LIKE I CAN DO KAMEN RIDER. 8D Mostly for the same reasons as Marvel comics but never mind that.
…Alice in Wonderland? I’m pretty sure it’s in the public domain now.
ETA: Did it for Alice in Wonderland! Probably everyone will think I’m hopping on a bandwagon but oh well. And then school closed because of the blizzard. /shoots self in brain
Drawing is such a painnnnnn nowadays
Bought sushi lunch today at the cafeteria. It was salmon avocado and I hate avocado so I dug out the avocado first. BUT THE SUSHI WAS HORRIBLE ANYWAY because it had been refrigerated. Refrigerated rice is kinda nasty, and blech. So in the end, I just fished (HAHA) out the salmon and just ate that. Person sitting opposite me prob’ly thought I was “eccentric”. :I
ASDFGHJKL; I don’t want to draw this. I kinda want to just not turn it in. :(
Thing is, the prof kind of…rants on behavior he doesn’t like, and I’m afraid he’ll start baww’ing at me, especially since I was good last semester. :( And I mean, wtf self, grow up.
…I’m such a bitch IRL. I think I alienated two of classmates in two diff. classes through bitchy comments, haha. |D;;
I cried buckets of tears in happiness when the prof said we were only going to be doing one essay in class. ;;_;; And this was the Comp. Lit. class, too, so I thought I’d be writing sheafs and sheafs of essays, but no, only one. ;;;;;_;;;;;;
Also, in that class I think the chick who sits next to me was in my Intro to Crea. Wri. class. But I can’t be sure. Aaaaaawkwaaaaaaaaaard.
classes i want to take
- illustration
- figure drawing
- all the fiction classes
- women’s studies (lit)/women’s lit – undecided ._.
stuff i have to do
- take that test I need to graduate
- declare major
Professor kept us for 20 minutes after the class was officially over. :|
DAMMIT I ONLY HAVE FOUR CLASSES AGAIN
NEEDS TO FINISH THIS REVISION
ETA: …My eyes itch. :(
So I quote Lewis Carrol in my story (“Curioser and curiouser”) and this chick writes to me that I should reword that because ‘curioser’ isn’t a word. But you know, I wrote that my character is quoting it (“‘Curioser and curioser,’ Serin quoted an ancient book”), so yeah, I can tell you didn’t actually read it. :|
All the English classes I want are gone. :(
K, have four classes: 2 Arts, 1 Comparative Lit, 1 Core. I want a second English, though. And all the fiction-writing ones were gone. :’(
You know, I kinda do have one complaint about Creative Writing class. The plays. I don’t want to write plays, I don’t enjoy writing them, but two of our homeworks were to write plays and for portfolio I have to do revisions and I’m all asdfghjkl; PLAYS!!
ETA: OK, I admit, I make fart jokes: “Mitsu felt a jab at his back as H gesticulated, and couldn’t help wondering if the laughter he was holding in could manifest as a massive fart in H’s direction” –I kept bursting into laughter as I wrote this, seriously. 8Ddd
ETA2: ASDFGHJKL; So I was wondering why I even put this third character in my play, and I removed him. Then I checked the portfolio checklist and it says I had to have three characters. ASDFGHJKL; PLAYS!! I would say the third character is implied, but I don’t think I’ll be allowed to do that. :(
Actually I just did ahahahahahaha ~shoots self in brain~
ETA3: I also indulged in some mythology bullshit. I was thinking of the devourer who ate hearts at the Weighing of the Heart of the Dead and I originally put Sabek. Then I looked it up and there was no Sabek. There was a Sobek, though, who was crocodile (so I was sorta right, I put alligator) but I’m not sure he was the devourer. But all this came from Wikipedia, and even published books can be wrong about this stuff if they’re not taking from an actual scholarly historical source, so. So in the end I was all “WELL I’M NOT USING ONLY JUST ONE MYTHOLOGY ANYWAY” since I also name-dropped sophia so. (Except I’m not sure sophia really comes across as mythological, but like. whatev. |||OTL)
asdfgjkl; Today in class I probably came off as some kind of misogynist because I called it ‘praising’ when a guy compared this chick to a man. ;_; Normally I’d be all against that but that wasn’t my point; my point was the appeasement of Diana through praise, and then the prof brought up the actual lines, and I was all “…Crap.” Because I mean, within the context of the poem it was meant as praise, and it even says that it is praise in the next line, and that is no excuse, but I…wasn’t actually paying attention to what the praise actually was, just that he praised her.
|||OTL
So as it turns out, there really wasn’t class last Tues! o/ Thank you, saintly chick from my class; you’re a saint. I’m sorry I was suspicious.
Aaaaand the good news is that he gave us the option of just handing in the final draft and only a few of us opted to turn in the rough draft so those four days he left himself to look it over seem like a good amount of time now. :3
Iiiin other news, my mouse broke. :|
