today was my 1st day to painting class cuz i missed it on tues since i was at my dr's appt. it was....interesting. the teacher is new so she's strict. i told her i missed the 1st day cuz of what's been happening and instead of being nice and understanding, she said, "oh, well, you can only have 3 absences in a class so don't miss anymore." eesh! u'd think she would've excused that. and plus, i emailed the dean of counselors, dr. hersh and let her know i wouldn't be there and asked her to let my teacher know. but i guess she didn't. *oy* the one good thing about that class, i know one of the guys so i have a friend! =D lol and it's right across my favorite teacher's office. speaking of her, she's gonna be hosting a summer abroad drawing class in FLORENCE!!! ahhhhhh!!!! i realllllllyyyyyy wanna go! it's june 3rd-june 25th. 3 weeks in florence with a 3 day trip to venice, museum and gallery trips...it's a dream! but it's hecka expensive and i prolly will have lotsa stuff goin on in july that will hafta be prepped in june....*sigh* what to do, what to do. and i'm thinkin about goin on a missions trip again too. decisions, decisions.

why does everything have to deal with so much politics? geez! it's even in sports. i feel sorry for mariucci's family. but val says that tyler seems ok and that he's gonna finish the school year. it would suck if they moved now, cuz he wouldn't be able to finish his senior year off.

tomorrow, no school-i got fridays off! well, off from school. i still gotta work. i'm not goin to work for pat tomorrow tho. not yet, pretty soon. i gotta buy more school supplies. mostly art supplies...that'll cost me a buttload. almost $300!! ahhhhh!!! sometimes being an art major reallllyyyy sux. books don't cost that much, it's the supplies. *sigh*

saturday...joe's crab shack! whooo! yummy yummmy yummmmy!

oh oh! check out the "my cool graphics teacher" link. my teacher made some cool promo stuff for the sacto KINGS. it's really cool!

you know what makes everything feel ok when u're havin a bad day? ice cream...especially "one sweet whirled" by ben & jerry's or "vanilla carmel brownie" by hagan daaz. mmmm....makes everything better. *sigh* either that or just rockin out to some good music. blasting at max of course.
