Art Institute

So...I had an appointment to speak with Kerry at the Art Institute a couple of hours after bolting from the dentist's chair.  I get there and am amped up to get some info so I can mull it over and make a decision on what I want to take, which degree to pursue and when I want to start.  Instead, I got so caught up in all the visual wonderment that I filled out a bunch of paperwork on the spot!  If only I had gold-lined pockets, this would be a dream come true!!!

Instead, I am sitting here on Wednesday night at 9:32, printing paperwork and searching for scholarships online.  I wanted to come home from my visit and take a nap because I couldn't fall asleep last night.  My dentist appointment was at 7AM (mental note:  Don't do THAT shit again! OK, one more time, but it's for the marathon session.).  I had to take a break to fix something to eat and smush my brain back into semi-normal appearing grey matter.  Why does it literally take an act of Congress to want to better yourself in this country?  I have more than paid my dues by working shit jobs for half of my life.  It's my turn, damn it!  I want this more than I've wanted anything...and it's likely I won't succeed this semester.

I won't give up; already have another plan in place.  My lease is up at the end of the year.  Although I like my location, I don't care for my rent payment.  I can probably find a hole in the wall equidistant to school and work and start in the Winter term.  I can cut my expenses and have plenty to live on as well as make necessary payments if need be.  TA-DA!!!  Don't count me out because I'm Leung Lao Shi (Professor Lady Dragon) and I will f*ck you up!!!  I have no idea who the comment is for.  I'll say it's a general warning to anyone wanting to get in the way of me finally trying to pursue this long-lost dream of mine.

Maybe
