blah.

today was bipolar.
good morning- went to class, no problems, happy times... actually had a (small) break to get some lunch...went to my afternoon class, it was alright - drew a lot of skeletons...went to work for about an hour and a 1/2..it was good - went by fast and was chill.

then the day gets even lovelier.

I went home after work and called my mom for a few - and while talking to her I remembered, I had a good amount of homework to do tonight. I wrote everything down that I needed to do:
Read for Bible class- (8am)
Cut mat board- and mat print (due-10am)
Study for Graphic Design 2 exam (12pm)
Read and post questions online for Graphic Design History (1pm)
Read for Art History/ workbook (2pm)
**not homework- work on logo design for internship (3pm)

So I had to go up to the school anyways to bring Lyn some shoes...the mat cutting room was open, I had matboard, so I figured I would do it today instead of before classes tomorrow. First cut - wrong size-way too small. Second cut - wrong proportions -also too small. Third cut -correct size, and no more matboard left. But that was ok because it was the right size- or so I thought. I marked out where the window of the mat needed to go, and then began to cut with the bevel razor. No, I did not have a new razor to put in the mat cutter, and yes I used the blade that was in there. My bad. I didn't even notice when I cut the first part of the window...but as I continued the edges only got worse and worse - along with my anger and frustration. So when the window is all cut out, the edges look like a mouse chewed them for me. How nice. So then I had a fit which included screaming, ripping matboard, and my face turning red. I then gave up. I went home - did the rest of the homework that I could do, and now i am going to bed in my room- that i need to tidy up - it is messy - but i can't force myself to do anything else today.

goodnight.
