Dead week is a crucial time in a student's career. All students are locked away in certain building and rarely do they come out. Unfortunately on Wednesday, I was in need of a power drill and being a girl something like that doesn't ever make the Christmas list. I text people right and left asking if they had one but I got a whole bunch of no's. Until, one person told me her husband had one (that's still hard to say since I've been working with this girl for four years and I've always called him "Stephen, Danielle's boyfriend"). This guy is an engineering major who isn't just busy on dead week, but all of the time. Thankfully, he considers me a good enough friend that he left the science building, drove to his house, then drove back to the art building, and put together three frames for my friends and I. And since these frames were due the next day the help was really needed. So because of Stephen, I didn't have to pay the extra money to have my painting professionally framed, saving me quite a bit of money.
Today: It's a bit ironic that both of these have to do with painting. Today was my last painting class ever and no one but me can imagine how big of a blessing that truly is. It's not that I dislike painting; I just dislike the class. Who really wants to sit/stand in a classroom for three hours with only one ten-mintue break, while knots start to form in their middle-back? Not this girl. Now I can be knot free, stress free, and still-life free (the class was still-life painting). To celebrate, the two friends I went to Little Rock to buy our frames with and the two friends I framed our paintings with (both being the same set of friends) chose to celebrate the end of painting with some fro-yo. It was the perfect way to end the day and to end my final Tuesday/Thursday class I will ever take.. unless I decide to get another degree at some time. What a crazy thought; I'm never going to have a T/TH class ever again. It's quite exciting!!
