I feel as if an evil elf is dancing inside my head, which is causing me a headache. For some reason this morning and yesterday morning when my alarm clock went off (ewww) it scared me, which inturn I guess is what gave me a headache. Oh joy. I felt like sharing that, haha. Now for a little rant.
I am taking 3 online classes, and for my mythology class we had an essay test over a week ago. Myself and other students flat out told the teacher that we had no idea what she was asking of us (there’s a forum-like discussion area for each online class), and she would just re-word what we were supposed to do AGAIN but caused even more confusion. I turned in a paper anyways, and I even told her on my email to her that “I don’t think I did this right, because I was still confused.” I got a 75, which is a C … about 5 points away from a B meh. I am PISSED. I would have gotten a 100 on it IF she maybe explained what the hell she wanted a bit better. On my paper she even wrote “Veronica, what you are writing about is very vague” … well no shit Sherlock we told you we had no clue what you wanted us to write about! So, I basically pulled a paper out of my bum. Oh well. Anything happen to you lately school-related or otherwise (friends, family, online life, etc) that you really need to vent about? Well go on! VENT!
In other news, I finished all of my internet class work for this week already (yayyy). I also bought The Little Mermaid Special Edition DVD yesterday after class, aww I love this movie haha. It was my favorite movie when I was little, and hey I still like it. I am probably going to screencap this movie as well (also will screencap some of the extra features too), because I have the urge to create icons out of them and I think it’d be fun. Right now I am doing research on hopefully finding an easier way to screencap then watching a movie and hitting a button a million times haha. We’ll see if I find anything though heh.
I am excited about Friday though, I am (hopefully) going to hang out with a friend that I haven’t seen in forever as well as my bud Becca (but I see her all of the time haha) so that should be fun!
OH! Anyone remember Pirates of Dark Water? I remember I use to watch that show on Cartoon Network when I was a kid (wow, I sound old) but I am downloading the complete series (only 21 episodes, sadly) and I even made a ringtone out of the theme song too haha. If you don’t remeber the show, you can head to this fansite for more information. Well I am off to finish more of my research on screencapping-made-easy, which I will probably turn up empty handed but oh well. Do you have any plans for this weekend?



Welcome to Artsie.me, a personal blog owned by a 26 year-old graphic design graduate named 






Yea, I’ve had that teacher problem. Freshman year, first semester, my teacher was new. I still got A’s on my papers, but no one else did.
People came to me to explain, and 99% of the time, I had no idea what the papers were supposed to be. I just gave up and went with my own styles.
It was a seminar, and I guess it depends on the teacher because that may not work for you. But if you’ve got nothing else, you have your instincts.
i love looking back on childhood things. its so much funabut sad at the same time cause all that innocence is lost.=[
i hate when teachers decide to make things confusing. so irritating!
I hate the sound of an alarm clock, drives me crazy. That’s why I turned my option to the radio instead.
Whoa, I never heard of online classes. In Canada, a 75 is a B, 76-79 is a B+. Sounds harder to get good marks in the States. =/ That’s really dumb of your teacher though, I hate when they vaguely explain stuff. -_-
I love Little Mermaid! But my favourite was Beauty and the Best… or Sleeping Beauty. Hah.
Ouch that teacher sounds like a right idiot! I hate it when they wont reword the questions I mean its bad enoug when you are in an actuall class when you can hear tone of voices and expressions but when its on the net its even harder. At least you passed though
:o I remember that cartoon! Only vaguely though
Oooo yay icons
If you find an easier way to cap let me know!! lol it would make my life a lot easier hehe
This sounds like your teacher is a little difficult to handle. Similar things happened to me and the worse aspect about it is , that sometimes you cannot even complain, because the teacher will not even listen.
oh yay! I was hoping someone would cap the new edition of the Little Mermaid. That was my favorite too when I was a kid. On capping, I’ve only learned how to do caps using BSPlayer but I don’t think you can cap DVDs with it.

This website shows you how to make caps using owerDVD 5, Windows Media Player and Media Player Classic. But I wouldn’t try WMC. I tried that the first time I made caps and it kept on skipping ahead to the end of the movie and then I’d have to go back to the point where it jumped and start capping again.
ARGH vagueness is mighty annoying.
And those elves, they possibly have relatives that are dancing in MY HEAD.
EWNESS.
Hey! Really cool site! i love the layout its so original!
The layout is beautiful.
Ugh. I have a love/hate relationship with my childhood /movies/shows/life.
Your teacher isn’t one of a kind lol. I know someone with a teacher worst than that. Not only did she never make any sense, she didn’t speak decent english.
hmm. I don’t like to talk about my school year cuz it sucked since the 9th grade. My grades are good tho.
