Difficult Assignments

There is nothing I hate more than writing love scenes! Well, ok, maybe that isn’t true, but I don’t like writing them for academic assignments. In Creative Writing this week, that is our assignment. I am perfectly happy writing my fluffy love scenes for keeping to myself, or really hot erotic fictions for sharing with […]

End of Semester Rush

My drawing instructor is now bellowing on a daily basis the number of class meetings we have left. For drawing, we will only meet 4 more times, and for astronomy, we meet 5 more times. There are only 2 weeks left of class and things are going by pretty quick. In previous semesters this timing […]

Digital Camera Ordered

I think I can finally relax now. I have ordered the digital camera for my summer course. It isn’t a true SLR like I was originally looking for, but its just as good for manual adjustment. I have selected the Fujifilm FinePix S5200 for now. It isn’t exactly a Nikon D80, but I think it […]

Registered for Digital Photography

After spending the early part of the day reading through the syllabus for the Digital Photography course, I decided that I REALLY want to take it, and finished up the registration process. There is one thing I didn’t notice last night that I did this morning though, the course is not self-paced as I had […]

Spring Break?

It has just occurred to me that instructors don’t really acknowledge spring break anymore. While there is no class held during spring break, there is no effect on online courses, and in-person classes still have assignments due. My Creative Writing class was on break this week (CPCC break), but assignments are still due on the […]

Gaudy Poem

Well… this is what I came up with. It ain’t pretty, but it will get me a grade for turning it in on time (which is all that counts). Sweat raining down like a waterfall Intense heat penetrating the body Kinetic energy pulsating the muscles Muscles on fire with stress and tension Push, pull, Push, […]

Writers Block in Creative Writing

I have the easiest assignment ever in Creative Writing II that is due in a few hours. It is an assignment called “gaudy poem”. It is supposed to be a very showy poem. Using all available literary devices and language techniques to create a poem to showcase the strengths of a poet. I believe I […]

Art History Psycho Bitch

I am usually a very calm and rational person when it comes to bad grades on assignments, for one, they happen to everybody, but in this instance… I can safely say, it is everybody in the class. There are 4 people in my drawing class, 2 in Drawing 1 and 2 in Drawing 2. On […]

The full event lasts just over 3 hours, but we will experience totality for about 50 minutes. Totality will begin at 0300 […]
