Feb. 22nd, 2006 04:45 pmSo, today was crap. Mostly. My scene went up in Directing today, but names were put on a lot of disturbances I was feeling, so that's good, because we can fix that. (Although I have to wonder why my groundplan problem wasn't fixed when we did the composition pieces. durr.) Costume plates were presented in Design, and I felt. Guh. Not great. I wasn't nervous until I got up there and was talking, so I don't know what's up with that.
And I'm tired.
And I'm coming to hate the question "How are you?" I can't lie and say, "Great," but on the other hand, no one wants to hear, "An asshole stole my credit card number, I was sick, my mom's car is broke, my dad has to be in St. Louis practically the whole month, my sister wants to date someone who graduated a year ahead of me (he would, by the way, be her third boyfriend when I've never been so much as kissed), I ran into somebody's car with mine, and my grandfather thought it was 1987 when I saw him last Saturday, thanks for asking!"
See? You all just went "...", no one wants to hear that.
Even Western Civ failed at making me feel good. I got 103% on my map quiz (I answered all the questions and extra credit questions correctly). That was good for about ten seconds, until we took our reading quiz on Candide. I read the whole book, and then Dr. Nordmann announced that the quiz was only on the first half of the book. Cue several cheers from the neanderthals who only read the first half before giving up. I READ THE WHOLE THING. WHY SHOULD THEY GET OFF EASY BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT TO APPLY THEMSELVES? I WANT MY CREDIT. It's just a few points and in the long run can't mean that much, but I feel really wronged here.
Although, the grammatical incorrectness of saying someone (i.e. Pangloss) was "poorly hung" will cause me to laugh hysterically. Yes, I am nine years old on the inside. Thank you.
