i'm really loving my senior seminar class. it's teaching us how to write a proper artist statement, make cover letters, write up our résumé.. all the practical things i'd never know how to do otherwise. hahah. it's perfect because it's for BFA students, who don't benefit much from the typical business major-esque résumé writing workshops they have at school. it's tailored to suit our needs & specific skills.
my other classes are all going relatively well. there are only four other people in my korean class, so it's very personal & much less threatening/embarrassing. chinese is going well too, but we haven't really gotten into anything difficult. i love learning to write the characters-- they're made up of pictures that actually make sense & look like the objects they represent. i was fascinated when professor cong showed up some of them in chinese ink painting class a few semesters ago, & i can see myself really getting into it.
my textiles class is fun, but i'm really itching to dive into the more complicated stuff. we've been making/printing handmade stamps on fabric, which is fun... but i really want to do other things now. i've got tons of ideas for that class.
my internship is going very well, as it did last semester. it's like a break from all of the normal work i have to do because it's so different. i like it. the reasons behind why siona works on the subjects she does are really interesting. she's such a cool person.
the only bummer this semester is my ceramics class, i guess. it's a shame. some semesters i'm super prolific in ceramics but not so much in painting, & sometimes it's the opposite. i think that's going to be the case this semester. the class is WAY too crowded/loud, so i can't even work or think comfortably. it's just a totally different dynamic than it was last semester. i don't know. at least painting is going well, haha.
