Class

I really am excited for this class, the intro seemed pretty awesome. I liked the intro of Rome, after learning 4 years of Latin that I never thought would get me anywhere- it was cool to see some of what I learned in high school repeated. I love art of all forms and am eager to see what this class has in store. I am very open minded and have been exposed to a lot of things already, but I feel this will expand my art background to a better level. I love the open class discussion and photos that were shown in class first day. Normally, I would be intimidated by the grading scale, but in fact I'm excited for a challenge.

ME:
Hi!
I am Amanda, the youngest of four from Rochester New York. (nowhere interesting).  my most prized possession in Tampa, right now, would be my longboard - formally Sheila. I love this thing like its my child. I am a dreamer and an artist. Outspoken and determined. Lover of animals, I work at a vet back home and have a pup of my own. I am helpful and admire art. I am horrible with numbers and anything science. I have a love for computers and technology, but break or loose nearly everything I own. Not from neglect, but severe forgetfullness. Memory is not my strong point. I have a lot of energy, outgoing and will strike up a conversation with anyone I happen to be around.
I'm the kind of person who invites herself to sit with the kids eating alone at the lunch table
and I make a lot of friends that way.
My friends are my family and my family is nowhere close to me, but we try to keep in touch as much as possible.

Should be a good class.
