AP Art

Luckily for me, I recently had the chance to change my AP Art portfolio from the daunting "Drawing Portfolio" to the more friendly sounding "2D Design Portfolio."  This may come as a shock to you but my focus in Art is not in forming the figure and creating a sense of three dimensions.  Instead, I focus more on the elements of art and the principles of design and implementing them in interesting and creative ways.  Just to let you know, I took the choice of switching to a 2D Design Portfolio and I have to admit, this opens many different paths that I was unable to take under the burden of a Drawing Portfolio.  In case any of you were wondering, the amount of work and quantity of submissions needed are the same for both the Drawing Portfolio and the 2D Design Portfolio.  In addition to the increased freedom and creativity, I am also able to submit photographs, a field that I have dabbled in here and there.  In regards to AP Art, I am feeling a bit more optimistic.

Overload

Feeling overloaded with work; was laid off this week and instead of being able to catch up on hw with the newly acquired time, I spent the day going through stores like big foot goes through socks.  Still a day late with the first AP art project and I'm hoping that she will let me turn it in around the middle of the class period.  Hoping.  I'm also hoping that my billionaire Physics/ Pre-Cal teacher puts my name in his inheritance.  At least I got a doughnut this period for being hungry- I mean, awesome.(Hey, did you know the plural form of doughnut is donuts.  Never noticed the spelling difference before!)

Rescinding of previous post

Due to recent events, I am no longer single and thus AISS has been postponed until (or if) I am single again.

Google +

Just connected my Google + account and my blogger account: hopefully this will make it a little bit easier to connect to the social networking world of Google +.  In other news, I have learned a valuable lesson: never, ever, EVER drink my father's coffee.  It tastes like cat pee.

Tornado Devastation

Fortunately, the title of this post couldn't be more misleading.  Despite wind storms and tornado warnings, there is very little if any damage in NC to date.  However, there is still the problem of the absence of Twinkies in the nearby Walmart (it is NOT illegal to sell endangered foods).

Recently, I've been swamped (figuratively) with homework and projects from my two AP classes and Honors Physics.  Hopefully, with some luck and a couple cups of coffee, I will be able to finish everything that is due on Friday for school.  In other news, I do believe that we are reaching the 250 post mark (halfway to a new album from D.R.A.C.S.!) so if I were, oh I don't know, one of the other 8 blog contributors (counting myself... I think), I would start posting some stuff. 

In other news, I have started to recruit some voices for a possible animation series..... idk

Party, Vlog, and other stuff

Because it is the second semester and we are all bored as heck, a couple friends of mine have another party planned on the 9th.  We haven't really decided where we're going to have it this time but I can assure you that it will be just as awesome as any of the other parties we've had (it's kind of like our guarantee).

I have kind of started a vlog series on the D.R.A.C. YouTube channel (which is still named frostthechao1 for some strange reason), so if you want to check it out, go to the channel and click uploaded videos).  Let me know if you like, dislike, or really just don't care at aaron.mckenzie101@gmail.com.

In other news, I have absolutely no voice right now and my eye gets this pangs of pain at random times of the day.  I am also still single so I will most likely be continuing the AISS series on Jahn Flipnotes.  Enjoy!

New Classes

New classes!!!!! With the exception of Ile (middle school), Hex Shadows and Vin (out of High School), and Autumn Hex (who graduated early.... lucky).  I've got A.P. US History for first period, which seems to be a crapload of work and bulls***.  For second period (right now), I was supposed to have Librarian Assistant, but I was relegated (or promoted) to Attendance Office Assistant.  Kind of an easy flow, lots of paperwork.  For third, I have Honors Physics with, you guessed it, the infamous Mr. Bell.  For those of you that haven't heard my plaintive cries of pain and discontent from the days of PreCalculus, Mr. Bell is the billion dollar math/science teacher.  And for 4th, I have AP Art.  Go figure.  What about you guys?  What new classes/teachers do you have this semester?
