History was so much fun this time around. I can't wait to start learning more about ancient through Medieval cultures. Painting 3 and a choir class for fun starting tomorrow. Hopefully, I can start at the U soon. I am more than ready to dig deeply into Classical Studies, and Fine Art.
Wish me well, my dears.

Summertime news
Good news: I got 4.0 in both my History classes, and a 3.7 on my AFA Art Portfolio.
I am tutoring English, Speech, and Communications students this summer at my college. For some reason, there are not a lot of English tutors around--weird. I will be applying to the University of Washington, and a couple of other colleges here in the Seattle area for entry in either Histoy, or my preferred subject: Classical Studies.
I want to learn Latin and Greek. Then, once I have Socrates, and Trajan's worlds fully embedded in my brain, I want to take those language skills, and classical art skills and apply them to an English History Masters degree
Midterm Madness!!!
This quarter is particularly challenging. I'm painting, taking History 235 (Medieval Western Civ), a Portfolio class so I can graduate with my AFA, and for "fun" I am singing in Chamber Chorale. Chorale was fun until I had a tour, Painting, History Midterm, and AFA assignments all due last weekend (May 1 - 5). Made for a looong weekend, and I think I did quite poorly on my History Midterm essays. Oh, well, I shall endeavor to improve my time management. Thankfully, will not be travelling on a choir tour when finals time arrives.
While I'm at it, I want to share a work that I thought was just too adorable not to share. by ~Lagutin (https://www.deviantart.com/lagutin)
Midterm Blues...
History, History: Just finished the Ancient Western Cultures—moving on to the Byzantine/Later Roman Empire sections, and FINALLY, The Middle Ages.
I am having my credits assessed for my AFA degree, and am ready to move on to university. (I hope.)
I know you have noticed my absence from DA. I’m struggling—my grades are good, but I’m really struggling.
Pray for me. I need to keep it together—I need to move on and complete my Four-Year Degree.
Thank you, all, for your understanding.
What will I study, you ask? Art, or History, or Art History, or Classical Studies.
My major will be one of the four, my mino
Happy September, All!
We see the year waning to its close. The weather so pleasant, but my garden prepares for autumnal fading, and quietly waits for winter.
All is well with my loved ones, but I miss my mom-in-law terribly. Shadows come early, evening shadows grow deep. Some nights I find it hard to sleep.
My Fall class is Art History. I'll study Ancient works; Ionian columns, Byzantine mosaics, and Egyptian obelisks. I'll memorize like crazy, and learn.
Will my studies re-awaken my muse, I wonder? Will those ziggurats, and cave paintings give me fodder for my pens, and chisels, and clays, and paints?
Will I once more create works from observation, and
