This is the End...

My only friend, the end. I am glad that the end of the semester is nearing. I have enjoyed my classes but I have found that the most pleasurable one has been Drawing 1. Unfortunately, I will not be able to take any classes for fun next Fall or Spring and cannot pursue this further in the academy. It has been so much fun learning how to carve a figure out of shades of gray or create movement just through the shape of your lines. I will miss this class. Luckily, I have the tools to continue it in what little free time I have at some point. I have also started trying to bead again. It came back to me instantly how to plan the design for names, flowers and other shapes and figures but to my dismay my needle and nylon thread were very uncooperative. I was a little disappointed but I know I do not even have the time to start or finish such projects. I have had an increase in energy during the day through my morning jogs which is fun but hard. Unfortunately, I do not channel the excess in the right directions. I don't know if anyone listens to the Doors, you may have recognized my opening statement if you do. I will close with the same, a personal favorite of mine. "You've got the guns but we've got the numbers, we're gonna win yeah we're takin over, Come on!!!"

  1. I am welcoming the end of the semester as well as the end (at least for now) of my time teaching. It is time to move on to other things. It is just something I can feel. As I was walking down the hall of Miller, there was a sentence strip posted on the wall that said, "Always do what you are afraid to do." That is the advice that I am taking to the summer and life after public education.
