So I am just about to start my formal lab write up for chemistry and decided to get a little ranting out of the way so that I can focus. MY O-CHEM TEACHER SUCKS!!! Well, really, he seems like a nice guy but he definately shouldn't be teaching.

   So, you know, organic chemistry is a pretty hard subject. Well, my professor's way of teaching this hard material is to give us a workbook and put us in groups where we spend all class learning this material ourselves while he walks around and "monitors" our progress. And so we come to class he gives us a quiz everyday on what he did the previous class. To make matters worse, when he does lecture, we cannot understand a lick of what he is saying. All he does is mumble and draws mumbo jumbo on the board for 50 minutes. Everyone just kind of looks at eachother, confused.

   We also have a 3 hour lab once a week after an already long and grueling day (taking other classes too) and expects so much from us!! We always have some complicated pre-lab to write-up and then an even more complicated formal report followed by complicated questions that have nothing to do with the lab.

   The exams are horrible, long, and tedious. I have never ever been given such long exams for a 50 minute time period. There are only three exams a quarter, one being the final, so if you screw up on one then you're pretty much screwed. I took an exam today and studied my ass off the past week and I still felt like at best I could get a C!

   Maybe I'm just a bad student, maybe I'm just stupid. But really, I have never had a professor I disliked so much and now I am stuck with him for the whole year because he is the only one that teaches ochem! T____T *cries*

   I feel better. Now I will sulk away and work on all this crap I have to do for tomorrow's lab that will probably take me 6 hours to complete.

Just submitted my first deviation in a couple of weeks. It's really hard to work on art while I'm in school ><; I wish I took more time to work on it when I was in high school and classes were so easy! If I didn't party so much I could've actually got some art done. xD

  Anyway, school is oh so very annoying and hard right now. My lab due next week for organic chemistry is really kicking my butt right now even though I've only got 25% of it done!!! Oh the horror. Crawling into a deep, dark hole and hibernating for a year or so sounds awfully tempting right now. -__-;

  Artwise, I have my plan laid out for the short story I'm working on which I simply refer to as "The Love Story". The name will change eventually, I just can't think of a better name. It's going to be extremely short and hopefully have some kind of impact on people depending on how well of a manga creator I am :3

  It's not going to happen anytime soon though... I will have character planning up for the girl in the story and then start on the actual manga.

  I have to work tomorrow afterschool so definately not looking forward to that..

I just bought a book called "Manga School with Selena Lin" and it has given me some new found motivation in art. :D Her tutorial on watercoloring looks fun and I'd love to try that out soon. I really need to go buy some art supplies when I have more money ^^;

  I finally beat Tales of the Abyss! It was such a fun game and it makes me want to draw a picture of Tear. She's so pretty. *_* I'm going to be starting on The Last Remnant today. I've had that game lying around for awhile and I've been really wanting to play it.

  I start school again next monday (noooooo!) and I'm definately not looking forward to it. I can't believe how fast this break went... I feel like there is so much more I want to do. When I go back, I'm not going to have any time to do my art :[ I still have to write an essay for university admissions! Waaahhh... I don't wanna... I really wish I could make lots of money with art because I would definately enjoy art school. But.. it doesn't unless you get lucky. So I'm going to school to be a Pharmacist. Chemistry and Biology is my life. Which is not fun :[

I finally did my first computer colored deviation today! Woo! I feel so accomplished. Now the question is.. what will I do when my one month trial of photoship cs4 is up? Does anyone know any good free programs that I could use after its up?
