Morning classes

Hello.
I'm writing this from my university and I have classes.
Drawing-the-tree-root class. But I'm stuck so I went for a walk around the school. It's also getting cloudy and windy.
The weather is not stable here. It's even going to rain tonight.

Anyways, a couple of people are starting to slack off.
That made me think.
Why are they in uni!?!?!????!?!?

Don't they have ambitious dreams and stuff??
I know drawing for 3hours everyday is quite tiring and gets on to your nerves but seriously. Not coming to school equals you are making your parents paying money for nothing for the past 2years(for cram school) and now onwards.
peeeewf.

Ok, now its 2:38 and I have finished for today.
My painting is getting a lot of positive comments from the teachers.
woow. I didn't expect that. I was just doing what I really wanted to do. Basically, I was just drawing like a kid. That is kind of the best thing you can do in art. When you draw like a kid, all the old guys like it. When you get sohpisticated, they hate it. Well, I'm having fun with myself so I guess I don't really care about them and I do not take their comments seriously.

Ah, the reason why I finished school so early?
The min-zoku-gaku(how do you say this in english? floklore?) was off.
It was on for like ten minutes, then the teacher started to speak italian in the speed of sound and went out of the class bearly saying "the class is off". So, we 100of students were puzzled and didn't know what to do. I went to the library shortly after that and as I came back and passes the class for folklore studeis, some people were still there. haha

Funny things happen everyday here.

I guess this means extra me time.
Haven't had that for a long time.

ME TIME!:D

  1. Hi there. Uni is still full ot mystery for you, huh? Musabi seems to retain good old flavour of Japanese universities where teachers enjoy complete autonomy. Perhaps because it is an art uni and it has no problem of attracting good students. In other words Musabi is not struggling to survive.

    Glad to hear you ar enjoying painting. Mr Matsubayashi would be happy about it too. I mean you can draw with an innocent heart of a child.

  2. MAU Uma,

    The teachers probably like your work because it may be your own "style" rather than the style learned at cram school. Don't worry about other kids slacking off. People have different lives - some may have study problems, some may have health issues and some may be having emotional difficulties. Some will get serious again - others will disappear forever. Maybe your Minzoku gaku (ethnic studies? folklore studies?) teacher is included in that group too! You just keep on going along your own way and try to enjoy yourself.
    Cheers,
