Since I have been teaching my Art and Anime class this semester, one of our teachers has asked me to do a guest lecture at the other school where she teaches. This is happening tonight. She wants me to give her students some manga and anime history as well as show examples. Surprisingly, she also wants me to bring some of my resin dolls to show their modeling benefits.
Another teacher wants me to come to his class at the same school next fall for the same lecture.
The school is the horrid one where I got my degree - how amusing. I would get my masters degree in Arts and Technology there IF they would give me a full scholarship. I refuse to pay for classes - this school is the reason I have permanent costochondritis, carpel tunnel syndrome and other problems. I worked there for 13 years. The first four years, I worked and went to school.
ANYway, I have been prepping for the guest lecture all last week (as well as doing MY class preps) and now otaku is all loaded up with the stuff I need to show. The nine pages of notes are all compiled, too. Last week, we went out to the campus to see if I would be able to plug in otaku into the overhead projecter in the classroom and it worked great.
rat is going to help me carry all the shit to the lecture then come pick me up afterward. It's a three-hour class and I know I will be pushing it to get all the information out. I usually cannot get the info I want to get out to my own students in the two-hour timeslot I have for MY own class!
Today and tomorrow is also my school's computer arts festival, which means I will not get any work done - I will be too busy holding down the lab during all the events. I hope I can get some of my own class's prep done today, too.
And I feel like a truck has run over me. We went to a doll meetup on Sunday and I overextended myself to the point I am now in great pain. Happy Joy.
At least we get a holiday on Friday - I NEED the sleep and my poor body is desperate to just lie down and stay down for vast tracks of time.
Thanks: --> to Lia, my sensei, who has inspired me to draw again. I
wouldn't be doing this without your support, Domo Arigato!
--> to Talon, for sending me her fabulous fics, inspiring me with her writing to draw my first
illustration for a story and actually liking what I drew.
--> to Dasia, for her words of encouragement when drawing her original chara.
--> to Joules, a wonderful epic fic writer, for liking my art enough to want to post them with Talon's
and her own stories.
--> to Lutra, the other half of the epic team, for being so supportive.
--> to Jacque' & Becca Raddittzu, we met on eBay as bidder and sellers and now we are face-to-face
friends. You showed us the real DBZ with your fansubs. It's all your fault the house is full of
doujinshi! *LOL*
