My day started when my roommates alarm clock when off sometime around 6:00 being a college student she struggled to turn it off and then rolled over and when back to bed. I was awake however but just decide to lay around until my alarm clock went off. then there was the rush to getting ready. My first class was Jewelry and Metal one. what a great one to start out on, I was one of two first years and to my surprise a good mix of girls and boys, we did a bunch of first day stuff, got lots of paper and then finally moved on to doing stuff, about half the rest of the class was taken up by learning how to put a blade in the small jewelry saw. These blades are tiny, not the smallest one but close. here's a photo comparing one of the blades to a pencil. and then we were given a sheet of copper and told to cut the edge this is not as easy as it sounds cutting in a straight line with one of these is not super easy. I did ok however and here's a photo (you can see on the bottom how my blade was loose and so was way off)
4D=Time
my next class was 4D, or how I always called it in my head the tech class. Turns out 4D really means time and how time relates to everything (I think...) looks like it may take some warming up time but will most likely become really interesting. however we had this long desuction about all the things people have done with time and how that is viewed and some whee in there Stonehenge came up, witch got me thinking about the Eddie Izzard clip about Stonehenge so I when back to the dorm and watched that i am going to post it here. this may not be completely appropriate for the young children but I an a huge fan of him and he is always funny.

Tomorrow I have three classes, measured drawing, English one, and intro to the arts (art theory and brief history) hoping these will be as good as the first two!
