Today things are looking a lot better. Last night I got my film loaded into the tank. It still took me a few tries, but I got it.

This morning the phone rang while we were getting ready to head out for the day. Thank you thank you thank you to kolys who has offered to watch Aidan so I can get into the photo lab and be productive.

I don't have to worry about what caught me up last time. Thank you to mechanchaos for the use of his old film tank. I can concentrate on developing, mounting my digital work, and making a contact sheet of my negatives.

Then tomorrow I can go in, enlarge my final prints, mount them, and turn in my work.

Classes today were very feel-good. I got my final grade in Reincarnation HIS 252 - solid A. Since I already had my project for Intro to Graphics mounted, all I needed to do was affix a label, fill out an explanation sheet, and make certain I had all the right enclosures before handing it in. I had a class survey too. One classmate was interested in exchanging contact info. Several wished me well before I headed out. Professor Irvine paid me a complement as I was about to leave. She suggested that I ought to take other computer classes or at least other art classes. She thinks I have the knack for it.

For as comfortable as I feel in the art building at MCC, I don't know if graphic design is for me. I'm definitely keeping it in mind as something to fall back on, since I might as well have a BA in art already. In some ways it's too comfortable. I like the intellectual challenge of classes like HIS 252. I like the thrill of sharing profound observations in papers. I'm altogether too excited about spending my break writing a paper to submit to an undergraduate philosophy conference. I'm terrified by it, I am intimidated by it, and yet it's like riding roller coasters used to be for me.

It is somewhat ironic... I used to get scaredy-adrenaline-tummy-flutters from fast rides. Now that those are like leisurely drives to me, I find my big adrenaline rush from trying for publication. I guess I'm a philosophy geek at heart.
