Spring Break

Spring Break is over and done with.

My plans for Spring break were simple and undemanding. I was to remain on campus, do a bit of homework, photograph my paintings, and get some serious painting and ceramic work done. Of course, it was not to be.

It would seem that no one is allowed to remain on campus during Spring break anymore due to problems last year. Naturally, I did not know this. There was a letter sent out on Monday (four days notice) informing us of such. Unless we're expecting mail no one checks their mail, so I had no idea about this until I overheard someone else talking about in the cafeteria. Even if I had got the letter that would have been only Four. Days. Notice.

So, with no notice whatsoever I had to fine a place to go. Small problem. I got to school in Kansas. I live in California. ARGH. At this late date my friends have already made plans and there was no room in them for me so I spend this afternoon begging Student Life to let me stay. No dice. Instead, I have to have my parents find me a flight back to California by Monday. A very expensive flight, thanks to the short notice. Never, NEVER try to find a flight during Spring break.

Yea verily I am frustrated. A flight was finally hunted down at a ridiculously high cost and I spent a nice few days at home, getting nothing done but a few comics and a bit of reading. Watched a lot of CSI shows. There are so many of those shows.

Oh a brighter note, my mom made me an In Joke T-Shirt. Which really rocks. She put the banner from my In Joke blog for it. Now my friends want some with their characters on them. I'll post the t-shirt designs on The In Joke blog. (theinjoke.blogspot.com)
