Finals, frustrated, furious, and fudge.

Soooooooo... today I only had one class and today i'm spending most of the day studying for my new testament final which will most likely be my hardest final. I bought a new New Testament book just to mark up with notes and bookmarks to use tomorrow on my oral exam. Not excited.
Then I tried to call Disney again about getting me something that has a start and end date for my college program. a total of about 30 transfers i'm still nowhere near getting one. This wouldn't be a problem if financial aid wasn't so dumb. But i won't go too far into that or it will just upset me.
So I went to check on my ceramics pieces that came out of the kiln. After about an hour of going through things I found all of my pieces making a total of 24. :) Thought i lost my purple tea pot which is my pride and joy but luckily found it in the very back corner. Not all of them turned out how I planned but most of them looked pretty good so I was happy.. until.. I decided to test my two tea pots. I put some water in them to see if the spout would strain the water through. The glaze unfortunately sealed all of the holes shut. I was absolutely crushed and devastated. I worked so hard on those tea pots and I took them to Brother Tolutau to see if he could fix them but he just gave it back to me and said the only use i'll get out of these is on a shelf for decoration. I was not told at all that I was suppose to wipe the glaze off near the holes, or make the holes bigger, or basically do everything opposite of what I did. Apparently I was suppose to know this. I want to cry i'm so upset. And then I ate almost half of the rest of my fudge that I bought a while ago. And now I have to study more for New Testament and pray I get at least a B in that class. Here's a picture of my collection. at least everything else is usable.

  2. That's what I was going to say! The zebra plate and smiley face mug are AWESOME! As are all the other mugs, looks like a lot of hard work! I hate it when teachers fail to tell you those little details, like we know everything? Rub it off, at least you know for next time :) Good luck on the rest of your finals, it'll be over soon!
