for those of you that don't know, i've never taken an art class before, but I plan to major somewhere in the arts department.

so last year i decided i should take some classes before i try to get into an art college. so i signed up for art 1. i even took u.s. history over the summer to make room for it. well when i went to get my schedule before school started, they told me i couldn't take art because it was full. all the juniors and seniors who need art credits were trying to get it at the last minute. also, my freshman AND sophomore year i tried to get into art and it was full then too. my last name starts with a 'w' so i basically get last pick. but i thought now that i'm a junior i should be able to get in no problem. but they were telling me it was full. well after 2 hours of waiting and arguing with my counciler, i finally got into art 1.

when i went to class on the first day of school, our art teacher asked, "what is art?". I couldn't answer that because i just couldn't explain it. she asked if photography is art, if tables are art, etc. those who answered replied only with, "no, no one drew those." basically, the students taking up ALL the space in art were those who had little or NO appreciation for art whatsoever. after going through all that and seeing the people who were in art 1, i decided to talk to the art 2 teacher. I explained my situation and showed her a few of my things and she sent me on my way to switch to art 2. :3

haha.
