No title comes to mind

As I will probably be posting a bunch of shit.....

I may have let my procrastination get out of hand because I have images due on Tuesday most likely (I missed THursday's class and the prof can be an ASS when we do. Fuck I PAY to go to that school so if I don't go it's my perogative.) THere are four fucking film scanners in the building. One works. I have at least four images to scan and would like to do more. I had to work all day today or I would have hit the building today early because I know how these kids don't get in there early. But not today. At five-ish I couldn't get the scanner. Of course the people that work there don't know shit. I have half a mind to write a long letter to the head of the department and the head of the school. Seriously. I doubt anything will change and it really is too late for me but I pay over 2k for a damn class at this school and I expect some level of competence out of the people that work there. Even though they are students.

Ok. There is a checkout place that we have to go to to check out equipment. Most of the students working there are graduate students. Yet they don't know shit about the equipment that is in there. So basically they are as useful as a screen door on a submarine. TO boot, when you tell them that a piece of equipment is not working THEY PUT IT BACK ON THE SHELF! Um, HELLFUCKINLO! The camera I put back I had gotten out again and they never fixed it. To BOOT, there was a damn note in the system that it was broken. I'm just so irritated.

So now I have to hope and somehow pray I can get access to the scanner to get these negatives in or I'm screwed. Royally. I am going up to a photo finishing store to see if they can scan in 3 out of 4 (they can't scan 4x5 sheet film), but I hope I can get it in a day or two. I don't care about the cost at this moment in time.

The project for my Art History class is DONE. I just have to study for the final. SPeaking of.....I have to see if he has the list on the Blackboard.

The project for my Alternative Processes.......almost done. I have more images to print which I will do this weekend while I am sure I have to wait for the scanner. THen I have to mat them. I don't like matting but it's too costly, although I have 4x5 prints so they aren't as expensive as matting an 11x14 print!

The scanning for my Commercial Studio class is the kicker. I don't want to fail this class because I dont have the money to take it again.

I will be glad to finish though. I hate to say that I dislike someone so much (well besides my sister's ex husband), but I so dislike my studio partner. She doesn't like me and it shows all over her face. That's fine by me. I could care less. But at least show some respect for your elders bitch. I foresee her not getting along well with many people if she wants to assist them. She can't handle taking direction and talks back. Professional photographer wont put up with that from an assistant I'm gathering. Actually I know. I worked with one. Granted my partner and I are a lot alike and I think maybe that's why we don't get along (but I didn't like her prior to this class, we had it out in another class we were in together). She likes to do everything herself, as do I. Not that I don't need the help, but if I do it myself I know it will get done right. But in studio photography having an assistant, one who will follow direction, is practically essential. Mine partner wears her feelings on her face so you know exactly how she feels minus the big black letters written in marker on her face. I can deal with people I don't like. I have done it before in many a job. But these kids. What they really need is a kick in the teeth. No respect, unwillingness to learn from their peers (not that I'm the smartest but I'm also a lot older and have been around), and they think they know every thing. Wait. I guess I thought that too. But I also learned to keep my mouth shut and listen. If I was more ballsy I would just tell her how I feel. I so hope she's not in the Studio II class I'm taking next quarter.....

Photos coming soon!
