While I may have earned the title Ship without a port I have found a comfy little nook of my own at the local Starbucks (i should probably be at Noble Coffe and Tea supporting our small local business) and I sure do enjoy it here. Everyime I come I run into someone I know and enjoy! Who doesnt love that. I love the idea of living in a tiny town even though there might not be much wild life (and I dont mean the animal kind)
Speaking of NOOKs I acquired one from my mother for christmas! I wasnt so sure about it, because Oh do I love the smell of books. and while trying to set it up I did have a minor freak out for about oh two hours but it turned out I was reading the wrong instructions :D oh happy day.
I did have a giggling revelation yesterday I am not sure you will appreciate it but I sure do! I have an addiction to books and when I start one I just cant put it down so some call me 'lazy' and tell me to go out side and excersice or whatever which I think is extremely mean (jus sayin') BUT! I did realize I was 'skinner'/healthier whatever when I did have a mighty strong addiction to books! Now adays I move around and am running all the time (or at least thats how i feel)
So anyway. I love my two new nooks :) and did I tell you I think I am going to Aveda in the fall? Oh I didnt? Well then, I think I am going to Aveda in the Fall. I am excited, because I think I might enjoy it! and I also think I might be kinda good at it too. And while you might not see it at first when you start thinking it over it is 'fashion' and that is what I like. I just have to find good shoes! So I guess this will be one of those situations where you have to buy one pair of really really good comfy shoes that you can wear everyday and have really good support. Yup.
Do you think I am funny? Because I sure do. Now now giggle with me :) did you know that excersizing is bad for you? it puts strain and stuff on your bones and joins and stuff. So that is why I am going to be a very healthy stong old woman.
My coffee is getting cold. I shall now get another book for my NOOK and play on Pinterest. I LOVE YOU, don't forget!!

Camera
I bought my new camera charger!!! YIPPIY! but it was 60 dollers eeeekkkk. I was a little bit unsettled.
But i would really like the wc-e75a wide angel converter and adaptor ring for it. that would really be cool.
but before i get to jumpy on accessories, i just tired to turn on my camera and it was not looking right... uh ohhh i havnt even had this camera a year and i havnt been able to use it for like 6 months. I really hope that it was just looking funny cuz the batter was so dead or else i will be sad if i have to pay 200 dollers to get it fixed. esp because i need the camera for an assignment due next week.
And i feel my computer hasnt been up to speed recently either. and my phone too. Apparently this is a bad time in my life for me and electronics. Usually we have such a good relationship. what is going on!? maybe the world really is going to end soon hehe

Good Analogy
You know when you see a cute dress and you take it to the dressing room and you put it on expecting it and wanting it to be perfect but then when you see it on yourself your like oh... i like it... but i dont think i love it. So you walk out of your little room and look in the bigger mirror and do a spin so you can see your back and side and everything. You cant put your finger on what exactly is wrong, you just know that it is.
So you keep on shopping and trying on differnt dresses till you find the perfect one.
That is how i feel about this place.

Early Morning
Well, you see I woke up this morning extra early because I needed to finish my homework so I finished most of it but i still have finishing touches to make so i was going to ya know take a break like a good normal person would. So I gather all of my showering supplies (which i might say is not very easy in this room) and i open my door and take two steps down the hall way and i hear a shower running but i hope i really just hear a sink. So i come back in my room put down all my stuff and walk down the hallway to ya know check out the scene. and three of the four showers are taken!! And i really only like to use the last shower on the end near the window because it has the best water pressure and I like to tell myself it is the least creepy. So now I have learned my lesson do not every try to take a shower around nine o'clock :)
I think midterm is next week?? I have two english papers to write and two stories to read and answer questions about. I also have... Two art projects to finish... one being a very learge piece of abstract fruit (and let me tell you abstracting fruit is easier said then done) I also ran out of breakfast food to eat which is kinda sad so i guess i will just wake up late enough for the next couple of days that I can just eat lunch harharharharhar (...)

IU vs. Purdue
Soooo the website that told me that Purdue is like the only college in our state that has a fashion design program, lied. IU HAS IT. Why am I surprised? IDK. It auctually kinda upsets me. Because now I feel like i have to make the decision between IU and Purdue, a fight I have tried to stay out of my whole entire life. I like the idea of Purdue better because IU just scares me for some reason... Maybe I should go see it. Because there program is auctually FASHION DESIGN while Purdue is APPERAL DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY. I wonder if IU would make me take the hard stuff that Purdue would make me take... that there might be the deal breaker. and then there is whole accepting thing, I would ultimatly go where ever they let me come........ this rant was intruppted because i had to go to class and know it is late and I am going to bed!!!!!!!
I just Emaild Purdue asking about admission and transfurring and all that jazz! While I do seem to love IUPUI I do not want to be here if I cant get what i want :) and a note to Jamie: Did you know that IUPUI is opening up (i dont think that is the right term) a Art Therapy Graduate degree thingie, so keep that in mind for four years from now ;) I think for english class I am going to get another chance to write a paper about Barbie Whoo hoo! I think I am going to make some coffee with my new Keurig Coffee pot and prepare for my next class. I love having a three hour break between classes... it is like a major stress releaver. Jamie is coming over after school today! i feel like i should pick up my room but uhh I dont know what to do with anything. I think maybe I should come up with five dollers and get a locker at school... even if they are out of the big ones a little one is better then not having one at at. I have soooo many art supplys.

Hi. My name is Stephanie Lynn Clark-Gaither. I just drank coffee. Because I plugged in my coffee pot. No one ever remembers my name. How hard is it!? Some kid named Tyler just calls me Ann (because i remind him of ann hathaway). Hummmm.... I am in college. I am in the study room, pretending to study. im really good at it. Just so you know. Now i shall go about staring at my sketch book trying to draw something because thats part of my homework.

Oh Manny!!!!!
Purdue:: $9,478
IUPUI:: $8,243
SCAD:: $31,010
SAIC:: $37,560
I am so silly, I compleatly forgot that Purdue is a public and not a private college so its not outragusously expensive ($30,000)! I feel much better about myself and much more willing to make a switch! I just feel real dumb. I would not be near the "city" which is OKAY. BUT I could have the opportunity to go to NYC for a year to a real art school which is what I really want! which just means I would have to be accepted to Purdue :) but i hear that its pretty easy to get into college if your already in it. If that makes sense. I feel like all of Noblesville goes there which is totally not very cool with me... but I am going to overlook it for the time being... and it still snows there which i dont like and thats why i want to go to SCAD because I do not function well in the cold... But I cant imagine not having snow that just seems soooo strange to me... weather is also why i dont want to go to school in NY. I would go to California though :)

I thought
that once i got to college everything would be clear! but i think im auctually more confuzed about what i want to be and where i want to go!!!! Its a bad feeling!! I found out Perdue kinda has what i want! But i want to go to an art school. and i think i like the city. but Perdue is not to far from home which is very convenient. and it had the perk of getting to study in New York for a year which is awesome! but i like IUPUI because its like 1/6ish the tuition of a normal school... but the cost of living might be slightly less expensive and parking might be better. and crime stuff might be lower.... More on this maybe later.

IUPUI SSA - English
Stephanie Street
I have always loved reading, so people like to tell me that I should like to write and that i should be good at it. I usually just nod my head and try not to let them see the confused and horrified look on my face. It is not that I do not like writing, because I do. I have written a couple of (very) short stories and I have a blog where I post my them and share random stories from my life, dreams that I have, and whatnot. Writing has just never come naturally to me. I think the majority of it is an organization problem, my brain is just not wired in the correct way for me to connect all the words and sentences and paragraphs together and have it come out to make sense. I feel like this course has helped me come to this conclusion that I have an organization issue. This means that now when I head into English 131 I can go in knowing how to help myself succeed.
When we wrote out our summaries I just picked out what I thought were the main points and slapped them down into a paragraph and called it a day, I did not realize until one day in class when I was forced to rewrite my summary for the article, Affirming the Self Through Online Profiles: Beneficial Effects of Social Networking Sites by Catalina L. Toma, using the transitions; first, second, third, finally how much easier and clear the paper was to read and write. Because of this I know how to go about writing papers for my class; I will come up with an organization method. I guess it is like writing the thesis sentence before you start the paper, you need to know what you are going to write about before you just dive right in, and diving right in is how I like to write a paper. Writing is a lot more methodical then I ever realized.
This course has been good because it has given me a glimpse into what my real class will be like, I will go in having a good grasp on what the teacher is looking for and I will have a better idea how the teacher may grade assignments. This program has also given me a chance to get a grasp on my ability to manage time. I learned that while I have the ability to do a given assignment in ten minutes, the end result will just always be lacking something. When I took the time to think and organize a paper it came out actually being something I was not ashamed to turn in.
I also learned that when the going gets tough, take a break to doodle and brain storm. I believe that this is totally going to help me with the way my brain works. I always thought that when I am writing a tough paper that if I just sit there and stare at the key bored long enough that eventually something magical will happen, but the process works so much faster if I just stop, get out a piece of paper and pen and draw or start writing down random ideas. I think I can compare this idea to a camera, I have the camera pointed at an image but the image is out of focus so I have to turn the lens a little to the left and right until I get it perfectly in focus.
I once told my friend, “College is not about being cute, it is about being resourceful.” We were talking about rain boots at the time but after starting this program I keep coming back to it, trying to hold on to it and remember. I guess I have been using it as my mantra. I know that I can succeed if I take what I have learned and I apply it. I also learned that there is a place in the Liberal Arts building I believe where they help you edit your papers, I am sure I will be spending a bunch of time in there. As you get older it seems like it is not so much about learning new things, but learning new ways to apply old things.

Asinine Dream.
I had a dream. I do not think that explaining it will come close to doing it the justice it deserves.
I think I was a spy and I was trying to help overthow the crazy people in charge. They were like crazy communistists.. I was running around trying to figure out what was going on. It was very futuristic. Everyone I know like lived in this 'mall' and there was a limited amount of resources and all the good food was gone. I was walking back from like the cafe and i was walking down this hall way and i saw a pair of shoes i had always wanted and i stole them. But it turned out that it didnt matter cuz you wernt alound to wear the color purple anymore. They were like a royal purple satin with like... well i dont really remember. But they kicked ass and thats all that matters.
I was walking through the halls trying to find Tori I think and some lady was talking about how the Law had said people cant wear all these different colors, and so then I looked around most everyone was wearing white because it was one of the only colors left to wear. So I kept walking out of the place with all the people and clothes (It can be described as nice, indoor flea market. I came into this ummm big open area I cant remember the name of It was escalators going in every direction and some regular steps too. I saw BooBoo so i tried to follow her but i couldnt figure out how to because there so meny diffent pairs of steps. so then thankfully i found Kiki right near me and she was kind of freaking out shopping because she needed to find maternity clothes for Logann because everyone was getting pregnant and all the maternity clothing was disappearing. I was kind of freaked out because it didnt sound like all these people getting pregnant wanted to be and the govnt was forcing them. But i decided to push that to the back of my head to think about later. I was taking a one step at a time approach. So Kiki pointed me up a pair of steps and warned me not to take the escalators unless I really needed to.
So I go up the stairs and I walk around for a second and I see Tori zoom by me and she waves and trys to stop moving but she cant because she is on an evil escalator so i try to follow her and i cant because it is to hard. so i turn around and start walking and i see this guy sitting in this chair next to the doorway and i go to talk to him because i need help. So i walk up to him and say hay blah blah blah (he is on watch for the govnt people) then this husband and wife and girl come up the escalator closest to us and the man drops something. You can tell he is NOT happy about dropping it. I got the impression its one of the like 'illegal' products your not supposed to have. So then they all kind of fall on the ground and then they guy unhooks this thing from the thing he droped and shoves in his daughters mouth and pinches her lips together so they stick.
Then Mick apperars and helps the family with whatever the heck is wrong. Apparently the girl is broken? and the thing the dad shoved in the girls throte is like a voice box but she is missing some other crucial piece and if she doesnt get it in 20 min she will die. So then the guy sitting in the chair who is working for the govnt pulls out this like car battery looking thing and hooks the girl to it. It is going to buy her some more time so they can find the piece she needs to live!
I dont really remember the rest I end up like seeing though the guy who is watching posts eyes I think its farther in the future when everything is beginning to fall apart and people are running out of stuff. He is in this apartemnt and he has a dog. But he cant support the dog anymore so somehow he turns the dog into a piece of pottery and is sad about it.
yes it was a strange dream.
