Mar. 9th, 2005 06:41 amWhy does school always try to kill me in the two weeks before spring break? Exams, stupid art projects, and did I mention the stupid art projects? This time I'm required to wander into some strange art gallery we have on campus and write a bunch of bullshit about one of the pieces in there. Only one of six, however, because the others apparently aren't cool enough for my annoying teacher, Ms. Frustrated Artist. Or whatever. I'm dealing with that next week, because the gallery's open such odd hours I have to stay after class to get there, and I'm still fighting off the sinus infection from hell.
We get our drawing projects back on Friday. I'm sort of dreading it. I think what I did was okay, but this woman is On Crack, she clearly doesn't want to be teaching this class, and she's taking it out on all of us in fun and obnoxious ways. She has been known to flunk projects, she tells us, for "showing a lack of effort". Now, I know what this means to me, but if my drawing comes back with an F on it, I'm going to scream. I tried, I'm just not a fucking artist, lady!
I'm actually happier in my Algebra class these days, which ought to tell you something about how much I loath Art. But Algebra II, evil as it is, makes sense. You do the math, you get an answer. If it's not the right answer, you fucked up something. Which beats not having the right answer because your teacher is a nutcase who hates her job and is mad at you for being something besides an Art major, and thus taking the General Ed required art class...
We had a test in Algebra on Monday, should get that back today. I'm anxious to see it, but I'm not really freaked out or anything. I feel like I did fine.
But as if this week wasn't fun enough, I go in for my annual eye exam tomorrow, and go back to chat with the MD about my lab work on Friday afternoon. I'm so sick of doctors I could scream, and the eye doctor will probably take all afternoon.
Next week I go back to the dentist for my second (and last, thank Gods) temporary crown and some fillings. After that, of course, I'll have to go back for the permanent crown. At least that won't be for three weeks after the temp. I'll need the break from medical crap, I think.
By the time I make it to spring break, I'm going to need the time off pretty badly.
*sigh* Is this semester over yet?
