One Thing I just Realized

Hey guys!

So sorry I haven't been updating for the past month(s)? School just started, and who knew being a Sophomore was so much work! You have projects due in a week, assignments every single day, and TONS of groupwork! It's such a pain in the ass sometimes, especially on those assignments that need to be encoded and printed, because I am not allowed to use any kind of technology whatsoever during school days- even for research, which I think is a stupid rule- and I'd have to go to the mall just to print something. Plus with all these groupworks and all your group mates are giving you a headache and you have to start bossing people around.

Yeah, being a Sophomore for me is a real REAL pain in the ass, but it hurt so good :) I've had awesome times too, like my first kiss, first love, first class you're in that doesn't bother the hell out of you with your very little and insignificant things. I know that usually those things come in your Freshman year, but I guess Sophomore year is meant to be my first year in High School to have some actual fun Weeeeeeee :D

Anyways, so today our class had like 30 minutes with our Guidance Counselor today, and the discussion reached to the changes in our country's curriculum (which I honestly think is STUUPID because you graduate High School like REALLY late like in your 20s. The good side is you can already get a job without needing to go to college, but I honestly think that you won't make it that far without a degree). I was pretty laid back about it (although on the inside I was pissed, because I badly want to go to CalArts and I don't wanna be in my late 20's when I graduate, but at the same time that would give me more time to get my crap together and build an awesome portfolio :D

But then our Social Studies teacher had to stand up and say....

"Yes, you will be graduating with the 8th grade batch. The only difference is that after graduation you can go straight to College, but they have to go through Senior High School."

My mind was all...

Did you just say that instead of 4 years to build an awesome CalArts portfolio, I've only got 2?

This was honestly starting to freak me out! I never had Life Drawing classes! I'm self-taught, and my life drawings are getting better and better (I promise you guys I'll post one when I have the chancee :D) but still! I don't feel ready to submit a portfolio in 2 years!

Well, I guess that was my wake up call.

So yeah, this is what's been happening in my life so far guys :) Sorry for the uber-long post! (:
