It should be obvious, i was working on my latest invention, so i am a bit tired, plus I wasn't planning on having an inglish major, LOL

lol, look at how I spelled English...

"my ingrish is some poor!"

**azure turtle** · 01-06-2003, 07:04 PM

Started today... bleah.

**Kali** · 01-06-2003, 07:07 PM

I'll hopefully be starting Jan. 27th. IF I can get my damn transcript.

Oh, and welcome back, Azure.

We missed you.

**azure turtle** · 01-06-2003, 07:11 PM

*blushes*
Thanks, Kali!

So Jan. 27th is the big day! Don't worry, the transcript will come. Then you can rejoice!! Or dread, like the rest of us.

i bet getting the transcript is going to be a pricey number, they don't come cheap...good luck Kali and don't forget..have fun!

Azure! Welcome back from the depths of space...many welcomes...how was the holidays? get any mangos???

**Kali** · 01-06-2003, 08:00 PM

Actually, I'm going down to my HS tomorrow to pick my transcript up for free. Since I'm going back to school (after graduating in 2000), it's free. At least that's what the lady said on the phone. Usually they're $5. The problem was that the school has been on vacation the last two weeks, so I had to wait.

Mouse · 01-06-2003, 08:06 PM

oh yes, the waiting can be a pain and then some, yeah...everytime you enroll for a new school you always need a transcript from each, and they don't come cheap as you go along further in the schooling food chain.

not fun..

I go back for my second semester this Monday. I'm kind of looking forward to getting back. After New Year's, the holiday, as it is, is pretty much over. That and the parents start to get annoying. The only bad thing about starting a new semester is the cost of all the books you have to buy. Jeez, do colleges think we're made of money or something?

Anyway, I am looking forward to the second semester.

Thank you, thank you. Holidays were busy, as always. Nope, no Christmas mangos. I did have a bit of eggnog, though.

Oy, I hear ya NTCF. Text books cost a small fortune.

**HorseTechie** · 01-07-2003, 11:12 AM

Oowee! Classes begin on the 13th for us here too. I'm just working on a Masters degree, so I just take two night classes a week. One is about how to use MacroMedia Director (a program kinda like Flash), and another class covers digital sketching. I hope we learn how to use the Wacom pad in that class too!

**azure turtle** · 01-09-2003, 05:12 PM

Forgive me for asking this, HT... But what's a Wacom??

**HorseTechie** · 01-09-2003, 05:20 PM

It's a... *stops a minute to think of the best way to describe the thing*

It's a 'digital board' that you can draw on. With this, you pretty much bypass the need for paper, pencil, ink, and a scanner. Unfortunatley, I don't have this on my home PC yet.

**azure turtle** · 01-09-2003, 05:22 PM

Wow!! That sounds cool! Ah, technology nowadays.

**HorseTechie** · 01-09-2003, 05:23 PM

Gotta love that cool technology! Seen many of the Transfans put the things to good use on their art forums too.

**azure turtle** · 01-09-2003, 05:27 PM

Does this mean you'll be sketching a few turtles with the Wacom, HT?

*Jephael* · 01-10-2003, 09:26 AM

I have classes at the Montgomery County Community College, which doesn't start until Wednesday the 22nd. I'm kinda excited though!
