isn't it funny how windows fax printer says so confidently in its little grey box that the pictures are printed successfully even before they've started printing?

just a quirky thought.

anyhow. got the drama posters edited and finally done satisfactorily today. am really quite pleased with them! sat down with adeline from publicity to do it in the art room since she's in Art and therefore allowed to touch the precious Mac computers [gosh they are really cool the njart people are privileged]. lounging around [okay not exactly. i was really brainstorming for ideas for posters okay] in the art room - i really felt so envious of the Art students and how wonderful it would be to do Art. they get to the art room after school, look for images for their coursework and sketch and sketch. and given that it is actually work and stressful though it doesn't seem to be - i think that no matter how hard it is, they love it whole heartedly and don't mind doing that much work at all because they are doing something so much more fulfilling than mathematics questions - they are creating ART! expressing BEAUTY! TRUTH! LIFE! so to them it isn't really 'work'. they're really doing something they love. something i know i would have loved to do. and i thought about that missed opportunity i could have had in ac - but i guess everything is give and take, and i'd have missed some opportunities i have now in nj had i gone to ac although sometimes Art and CAP seem to be such big misses.

i shall not dwell on that. i just can't wait to live out my grand dreams of taking art classes the whole period before i go away to university next year and then taking it as a course in university.

drama is really going to be one of the more enriching experiences i take away with me when i leave nj. though it frustrates me and stresses me, i know i can't say much for anything else about jc life i'd like to bring with me when i leave except for drama and lit.

and we've started silas marner. we started last week and somehow i find the book delightfully funny. i know black humour isn't even intended and i feel sorry for silas all the same but still i can't help but giggle when he brings out his money for company every night and feels great grief in his heart upon cracking his favourite water pot. so melodramatic he is. and i really like him as a character - all his eccentricities ... i can relate to him somehow. yes, i like it!

so, WHO ARE YOU?
