so i’m doing assistant sound design for the importance of being earnest at dramatech and we met today and the girl who is lead sound design was like ok gwen i want you to choose the house music, we want like piano music like sonatas and stuff and mostly german.
and i s2g my damn ex-IB student ass, who studied the importance of being earnest in HL english and also took an SL music history class senior year, stepped forward in my brain and was like “MY TIME TO SHINE” and now it’s time to be a huge nerd and choose the perfect intersection of the social implications of each song & the social implications of, like, lady bracknell’s existence
Check out the video from our last trip out to Japan. The team went in and so did Jake with the cut. Seriously stoked on how this came out. So sit back and enjoy the fire!
Super stoked to announce our newest pros to Grain Theory. Ben Herald and Kristian Aynedter! These guys two have just been killing it for so long, it was just a matter of time. 2 completely different damas designed by each of these guys. Both will drop May 1st online. Full edit coming soon. Congrats boys!
I am thinking about dropping my computational fluid dynamics class
This is me typing out my thought on it
I am not understanding much in the assignments. I think that I could if I *put my mind to it* but I am having trouble motivating myself to even start the assignments. Not to mention, they’re a large portion of the grade and I’m already behind. I would rather not be struggling to catch up in understanding and in grades.
It would drop my credit hour count down to ~very low~, only 8 hours (3 classes), however, it would not delay my graduation at all... my last 2 semesters could easily have another class tacked on, as could my summer semester.
I think this would also just be a good all-around choice because I’ve been very stressed with, just like.... life this semester and it might be good to take a step back, focus on 3 high-level classes, and focus on earning money and keeping myself healthy. honestly, between things like break-up and rat house and new friends w mental health things that i have not experienced before and want to help with, and me personally feeling more affected by anxiety type feelings than in the past...... i have faced more serious stuff, stress, and adulting this school year than I have ever faced before. I know a lot of people have to deal with this and much worse regularly, but I think that the large change sort of makes sense for me to be pretty affected by, and if I’m in a position where I can cut back on academic stresses, I deserve that.
What is holding me back? I’m worried this is a rash decision right now, but I don’t see myself changing my mind. I can see myself regretting it, maybe, but I don’t think I’ll regret it too much. It also affects my zell/hope credit hour count, but I don’t think it is too big a deal if my family ends up having to pay tuition for 1 semester at an in-state public school (i am privileged i know). I am also worried that my mom will think it’s a stupid decision, but she hardly knows which classes I’m taking anyway and even if she thinks it’s kinda dumb I don’t think she would get seriously mad at me.
so like I know I am supposed to take some time to think about this, but these are where my thoughts stand.
