ugh

:( so grades came out. got the expected grades. except for design. i had a b in that class when i went in, but i thought the regrading at the end of the semester would boost me to at least a b+! they weren’t even a- standards, i guess, but at least boosted to b+. it’s like he didn’t even bother regrading, or i made lateral changes to my posters. like ok you changed stuff on it, but that didn’t really affect the quality of the poster. like come on! i’m disappointed, because this is the first upper div studio course i’ve taken at usc. and if i can’t get higher than a b, i feel like i’m stuck. i’m not improving. and for all my efforts, i can’t succeed.

wow this seems kinda depressing. i guess it’s just kind of weird for me, because i’ve never gotten anything less than an a in my art classes before. oh, wait, design 1 was a b+. well. i’m also disappointed because i wanted my gpa to go over 3.75, but with this b, despite the other a/a-, dropped my gpa. sigh. 

on the bright side, today i watched iron man 3 and star trek.

Started a Nuzlocke challenge in Platinum!

Started off alright, got a female starter! Which is weird, thought I’d get stuck with a male starter (87.5% chance after all). Named my rival Tony. After Iron Man of course. LOL yeah I usually name my rivals after guys I like in real life. Like I named my other rival uh, Richard, because Richard Grayson. Dick sounds weird, Robin is like a girl name. Well maybe it’s unisex. Whatever. Haha. I will try to make a nuzlocke comic about it! :D


edit:comics are so hard and timeconsuming but i guess i’ll try. bored.

waitlisted for animation

well damn, i’ll be honest. out of the possibilities I was thinking of regarding the animation application, I wasn’t expecting to be waitlisted. we’ll see how this goes…

i guess i just wanted a straight yes or no- not maybe if. now it’s like hinging on possibly yes, but probably no. i mean, who would turn down an offer to be in animation? well… hopefully someone.

so impressed with traditional animators

I’m not that great with shooting; like srsly. Even though I went and shot all my scenes for the animation, I ended up photoshopping a lot of the pictures so that they turned out how I wanted, or to add some extra movement like the beak opening up. Shhhhh don’t tell the teacher! It’s supposed to be traditionally done… but omg it was impossible. So much respect for ppl at Disney. Or on the set of Wallace and Gromit. 

late night

i just wanna document the fact that my animation friend, who’s also pulling an all nighter in the animation building, just got me a slice of pizza. what a sweetheart!

i dont feel like an upperclassmen at all.. shouldnt i be taking care of him instead? lol

all night

ugh. i couldn’t enjoy taiko banquet because of work. and now i’m on tumblr avoiding the work. but i made it into the animation building and now hopefully by 9am tomorrow i’ll be done shooting…

Asking for help in class…

There’s an ironic oxymoron here, I know it. Here’s the thing in design class. Our teacher is trying to teach us how to be critical of our own works, so that we have an eye for this sort of thing, and we can fix up things by ourselves when we go out into the design world. This makes sense- except when you’re asking for help at the end of the semester.

First of all, you’re asking for help on projects he’s already graded because he’s going to regrade them. Second, that’s a lot of projects you’re asking him to critique. Third, he was trying to teach you to be able to fix things yourself.

Simply put: how do you ask for help, when you’re being taught to help yourself? I don’t know if I’m just scared he’ll be angry at me for asking for help (which is sad and shouldn’t occur), or if I’m debating because it would be WRONG of me to ask for his help (given that this is our final). Should I ask? Or not? The worst that could happen is that he’d refuse, lecture me on something, and worst case scenario: hold a grudge and fail me (lol jk).
