Me, Myself, and I

So i guess i' d better start by saying a little something about myself. I mean that is the first word in my thing, My Self. So I'm Sarah. Born in Washington, grew up in Washington, live in Washington, hate Washington weather (all this stupid rain) yup, so that's a basic start. I go to ARHS and i'm a Senior this year. I went there my Freshman and Sophmore years, went to FHS for my Junior year (which sucked) and then now i'm back where i started. I'm taking French 5 (technically 3rd year), Civics (stupid required class that i didn't have to take at FHS but now do at ARHS with a bunch of Juniors), Math (not my strongest subject at all), Creative Writing (goodby stupid grammer classes, hello writing whatever i feel like), Psychology ( don't make an dumb comments on this, it's actually quite interesting and no i don't want to be a shrink), and then AP Art Studio (yes! so much fun!).

AP Art Studio is by far one of my most favorite classes that i've ever taken. It's a pretty challenging art class ( i know, some people are rolling their eyes laughing at the thought of a hard art class). In May, we have to present a portfolio of 24 pieces of art that we did in class (and summer work). 4 or 5 have to be the origionals sent in, and the rest digitally sent in. This equates to 1 piece a week. So it's pretty intense. plus we have these Art Journals that we have to do everyweek (due Mondays). It's an awesome class. For our pieces we have to respond to prompts given to us by our teacher (the fabulous Mrs. Lobdell) that tell us what we have to have included in our piece (like a tree or landscape) and then now we have to also do certain color schemes. (like analogous or complementary, you get the picture). But it's such a fun class. We have pretty much everything we could want to use in our painting including: tissue paper, broken glass, ribbons, little do-dads, wire, fabric, beads, modeling paste, and a huge variety of paints, chalk and oil pastels, graphite, access to computer images and programs, you name it. If there is something that we don't have in the art room, our teacher will try to get it for us or we'll bring stuff in for eachother. It is SO much fun. :)
