Little_Whip Hmmm... I guess I am just not able to be that mean. If I start doing any of that stuff to her, then she will turn around and say that I was harassing her. And she would be right. However, I do need to start living in my apt again (not just my room). I can not give her any power over me. I will not let her bully me. I will sit down and watch TV in the living room and if she tries to watch with me I will nicely tell her that s

Toblerone, Well, thanks for the support. However, I HAD to pay rent otherwise we would have been evictied. Since Mia has moved in she has not paid her 1/2 of the rent on time, EVER! So, if no one paid for this month then we really would have been kicked out. I NEED this apt. See, I am a college student and only go to school. I do not have a job (at least not a steady one, I freelance my photography skills to a local public school b
Zoomba, Hmmm.... I never heard of this, but I will look into it. Thank you for the tip. Dragonlove
Hi bloggers! Well, I have had a very intense week. Sometimes, I just wish I was not me. OK here is my problem. I live in a 3 bedroom apt. I usually have 2 roommates (for a total of 3 people). Well, one of my roommates moved out Jan 1. By Jan 15 Mia was moved in as the new 3rd roommate. Then Feb 1 the other roommate moved out and me and Mia have not been able t
KarmaGirl Thank you for your support. I will have to let you all know what happens. Nikki dragonlove
"Before I come up with an answer, let me ask you a couple of questions (I may have to follow up). What exactly are you teaching them now? How is it currently justified? Why do they currently feel teaching darkroom photography to these kids is a good thing? How is darkroom photography justified at the High School level? When you say "The other dept's have licensed art education teachers that teach t
Thank you for your information! If you happen to think of anything else, I would love to hear it. Nikki dragonlove
Well, it has been a long, long, long time since I have written anything here. My bad. I have just been so busy. But the main reason I am here today is to put out a plea and cry for help. I teach after school classes in photography to grades 3-8. I am not a licensed teacher; this is why my classes are offered after school and on a volunteer basis. Wit
Happy Holidays everyone!!! Well, this year has been an interesting one. I have had several ups and downs but many more ups then in the past. I think I am finally able to accept who I am (faults and all) and this year has been a wonderful growing experience for me. To start things off, during the 1st 4 months of the year I seriously considered mov
I am all done with teaching my very first photography class ever! It was a lot of fun. The first day of class I realized that 4-6th graders do not have a very long attention span and don't want to know why things work, just as long as they work. Well, I will remember that for next time. I also learned that they do not enjoy 'watching' someone demonstrate how to d
Well, today is not starting out well. I have had a cold all weekend and work up this morning not feeling any better. Oh well - that was expected. Then I find out that I am almost out of film so I have to jump online quick to order some ($42.00 - B&H). OK, get in the car and drive to school early cuz I have a HUGE computer graphics project due today at 6pm and it h
capi crimini, Hmm.... thank you for your offer. i did go to your site and I did register. but i am not sure i understand what your site is representing. it seems to be a whole bunch of different themes. i don't really know how to do much with websites (well, actually nothing - other then visiting them) so I dont think i would be able to utilize your wonderful offer, but thank you very much. maybe someday way, way in the future t
Welcome, I am assuming from your title and subtitle that you like the WB show Charmed. It is one of my favorites also. I also see that you have the word 'slayer' in you user name. Is this perhaps in reference to the Joss Whedon TV series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"? If so, you sound like someone after my own heart.
Hmmmm.... I guess I don't get it.
M, Thank you! I am really excited for monday to get here.
As a word to the wise- take some business classes. Most photographers fail because of poor business sense, not because they lack talent. Karma Girl. Thank you for the idea. I have never even heard of that process. I will have to practice it a few times myself before I try to teach anyone else how to do it. But, it sounds like a lot of fun. As for the business classes... already ahead of you on that. I have a degree i
Well, I have a new assignment in my photo class. It's 'paiting with light'. Basiclly, this is a night photography project. Last nite me and another girl from my class (our teacher said that we were not allowed to do this project by ourselves due to safety issues) went out to shoot cuz we have to have something to hand in by Thursday. It was all pretty fun except t
Well to start off with, I am a Photography major at MSUM. This is my 3rd year of college (this time around) but only my 1st year taking any ‘real’ photo classes. There were tons of pre requisites to get through first. Since the students are not allowed to use the campus darkroom unless they are actually enrolled in a photo class (I guess that mak
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! I worked. I could swear that I tried that before, but maybe by that time I was so frustrated that I just missed it. So again, THANK YOU
OK, I already need some help with this site. So, if anyone can provide it, that would be great!!! I need to change my 'nickname' . I do NOT want to be my email address. And I can not figure out how to change it. I can't even find a FQA or any help features on this site. Maybe I am looking in the wrong place? I don't know. But if anyone out there knows
Well, this is my first entry into the Joe User world. I have been reading MarcieHelen's blog for awhile now. She used to be my roommate until this last May, so if she happens to see this..... hi (burp) I am not sure what I am supposed to write about this first time so maybe I will just introduce myself so whom ever should end up reading this. I live in Fargo, ND. I gre
