Thanksgiving Break

I'm so excited for Thanksgiving Break. Its just two weeks away. Grandma here I come. My roommate is coming with me. So we are driving down Saturday the 21st and dropping a roommate off at the airport and then continuing down to Vegas. She has never been before so I'm showing her the sites. It has been a really long and stressful semester. And it is coming at the right time for me. My show has to be done before I leave. Because I can hang it the day we get back. I do have three days to hang it so if I need to print one more picture that will be ok. And my printmaking assignment that I'm doing right now will be finished by then. Most of my portrait class assignments will be done. So after Thanksgiving the only thing left (which is still a lot) will be my last printmaking piece which I have to make an edition of (one for everyone in my class so we can have a print swap which I'm really excited about); My portfolio and my executive style portrait for my Portrait class; My final book for Book Arts (which I'm hoping to work on during Thanksgiving); my business plan and video for my Business class and maybe buy a new outfit for my open house reception for my BFA. But that will be fun homework that I gave myself. This semester is flying by. Less than 40 days until graduation. And no I still don't have a clue at what I'm doing after. I had tithing settlement yesterday and my Bishop was talking to me about graduation. I said that college doesn't prepare you for after. It doesn't help you make decisions. He agreed. College doesn't even let you pick which classes to take. It's four years (or more for most) of schedules set for you. Then they let you loose and I don't know what to do.

  1. Wow lady. You have had a very busy semester and I can understand why you are ready for Thanksgiving break. I'm sorry that you don't feel ready for life after college. it is a difficult to decision to make when you can really choose any and everything. And unfortunately, i can't tell you what to choose either.
