Ha, who'd have thought.
As of last September I was going into the Music Industry program at Oneonta.
Oh how things have changed, and I must say, I am much happier with this decision.
After realizing that I wanted a job, and something that paid half way decent, neither of which I would probably get right out of college with Music Industry, I decided teaching was a good route to take.
Well after Mrs. D's crazy antics, and my first art course in high school ever, I've decided to become an art teacher.
So I had about a week to get a portfolio together because I made my decision so quickly, and after a very nervewracking day at New Paltz, I found out that I was accepted!
A load off my shoulders, that's for sure.
So yes, life is good, and Marena's going to be an art teacher.


In other news, this is my first journal entry.
I figured the art school thing was a nice first entry.
So moving on...
I'm taking this photography course at school, and I absolutely love it.
I didn't realize how involved it really is until I started the course though.
Apetures, shutter speeds, enlargers..
But! I have become a master of loading my film in the dark.
I did it in less than a minute last week.
Some kids take an entire class period.
What can I say.
I just wish my scanner scanned the photos better because they look really crappy on the computer, but I'm going to fool around with the settings and see if I can fix that.

And why the hell does paper have to be so expensive?
I could easily print 20 sheets of just one picture, but I can't.
So I've been cutting the 5 x 7's in half and using those, so allof my pictures are tiny.
Whatever.

I think I'm done with this for now.
I'll definitely be writing more in the future.

Marena, out.
