today when we were finishing up our group project, i'd finally gotten the sculpey clay face i was working on to a point where i'd be cool with it aka not downs syndrome-y. we held it up to the rest of the body. the other two after a bit of hemming and hawing decided that they didnt want a face on the piece. i'd had an idea for the expressions i wanted which would give a whole creepy vibe/theme to it. i asked the one girl what 'underlying theme' our piece would have if we left the faces off since our teacher is all about obtuse meanings, and she basically didnt know but from an aesthetic point of view she didnt want the faces. the word 'amateurish' was used in regards to how it would look all together if we'd kept the faces. i was like 'fine its cool' and played off like i didn't mind. so yup, more or less ten hours and a friday wasted, not to mention the twenty bucks i'd dropped on sculpey clay. my parents and their two friends had come down for the day to see the gardens down in richmond and i met up with them for a little bit but i was in such a catatonic mood at the realization that i'd just come from a colossal waste of time/effort that i didn't stick around long. now i'm in a defeated, smelly state of being. straight up fuck school, i can't believe there's one more week to go.
