Old Schools

They were a football orientated school (who would of guessed huh?), now I have never understood football, but recently read a book about some other things and read it is like chess..Sounds sorta neat since I love chess..ANYWAY back on the subject, my old school has cut the funding for arts even further, after buying a new a new stadium clad in sand stones all over the place, new bleachers that are GIANT, and new field houses, along with two giant buildings and paving the place around and decorating it. Its gaudy, and a waste..OH Wait they installed Field-turf too, which is used by colleges and the NFL stadiums, which cost ALOT if I remember correctly, they did everything including where the bleachers are. The turf cost at an upwards of 30million, I forget the exact price..Now. After spending all that on a LOSING team, that loses at a ratio of 75% of the time (calculated it from the last 4 years), and always lose at their own turf, was it worth it? Was it worth cutting arts, getting fully rid of music classes other than band and chores, and not letting any new students to join. And cutting art classes to 4 regular and 1 pottery/clay class (To be shared between the Jr And Sr High schools). Now..I would of stayed there had I not finished all the art classes..Even through the damn death threats I was still there, but I just hate that school.
Now I am enrolled in Art Instruction Schools and doing it from home while drawing on the side and working on shit. Anyway..After I do this I will do the mandatory classes at the local college and then go to Carnegie Mellon University of Art :)..I have to say ever since I got away from that shit hole..Well nice looking shit hole I suppose, I have been freakin’ happy and have gotten ALOT better at drawing! :D This has been freakin’ awesome…ATM: Finishing lesson 1, sending it in once finished and working on lesson two :D..Anyway just wanted to say that’s a big reason why I haven’t been updating regularly, I have been busy with schools, planning, drawing, funding..And so forth! While reading books..Anyway, once I get things back under control I will be updating regularly, but just saying..I am alive! :D

PS:I am 100%, nay 110% sure they could of afforded not cutting the arts.
