WOW! What the hell is going on?

So here's my first post for the new semester. Wake up Call!!! Feeling a little frustrated with the outrageous amounts of homework and the timeline that it is expected to be done in. Okay, so a little frustrated is an understatement. I mean honestly don't these teachers realize that there are other classes in our schedule? Apparently not. Not you Amy, not that your schedule isn't tough either but these other classes are spinning me in circles. Anyways, I know I'm not the only one in a bind and should quit complaining, but to rag a little more, I think the cost of being in this major is going to break me.
For the first week of life drawing I've found it to be a nice release for me. To come to a class to simply observe and draw is very relieving. Not as awkward as I thought it would be to draw nude models.
And as I sit here going back and forth between printing documents for one class while studying for another and typing here I can guarantee that this is only the start of what will surely be the longest, hardest semester I will have here at stout. I guess maybe this should come as a relief meaning that the rest of my semesters here should be a cakewalk by these standards but right now it's hard to see the end.
Anyways not much for blogging so I'm going to cut it off here but will be back next week.

  1. Lucas,
    How many studio courses do you have right now?
    Three is the absolute max you should try to take in one semester, and depending on which studio courses you're in, two might be enough.

    You don't want to be doing so much your work or your health suffers.

    Have you considered dropping one course?

    I know it may mean taking an extra semester of school, but many students do that, and I would guess most who do say it was a positive decision.
