Now that is talent

The school I do my correspondance through has decided that it is the teachers job to be my tutor, so they are no longer funding a tutor for their students. Which includes me. Which includes math, at which I suck. Which means, that they will no longer pay Colette to tutor me, which is really bad news as she is the only reason I am passing math. For the school to do this is completely unreasonable, especially for student's like me who struggle in math. For my distance ed teacher to help me I would need her on the phone for over and hour every day. Which is what Colette is doing (except in person). I highly doubt that my teacher has that much time, as she has enormous mounds of schoolwork to correct, as I am not her only student. So, just because the school wants to tighten their purse strings, my education is suffering. Now doesn't that just sound like the BC school system?

Anyway, my rant does have a point. Now, Colette will be my art teacher (which they do still fund) who will also occasionally help me with math if I need it...no...when I need it, during/after art class. She will be focusing on photography with me, she will give me assignments (ex: take pictures of examples of contrast, examples of different types of contrast etc...) and then she will show me how to work with those pictures on photo-shop(right now I am taking out color and playing with contrast). I have decided to share with you some of my accomplishments of the past week. Enjoy, and feel free to comment on them. =)

Destory those 80's sun glasses before you scare some children and give them a lifetime of nightmares (as they have already done to me)!

That was probably Jason that said that Dakota, he makes comments like that on my blog too when he is in a goofy mood, but then again he is stuck in the 80's music scene, so he should enjoy the glasses too! Right?
