Word farts

So do you ever have someone say something to you and you are so taken back you speak before thinking and you say something that doesn't really fit. It doesn't have to be extreme, like saying something odd and personal, it just doesn't quite fit. Like tonight for example. I had to go to this visiting artist lecture and my ceramics teacher offered extra credit if you went. So she had to see you there. As I was walking down the stairs to leave, she said "See ya, Amy. Thanks for coming." I didn't know she was there and I didn't expect to be spoken to. So the only thing that stumbled out of my mouth was a quiet "thanks..." That really doesn't fit as a good response and I look like a really shy weirdo. And I have had worse word farts in my past. So then you sit there for at least 10 minutes beating yourself up, "why did I say that?," "That was lame!" etc. And sometimes, if it was really embarrassing its much harder to shake off. It will pop back into your mind hours or even days later, haunting you. Luckily mine tonight was small and I'm already over it. Gotta love word farts.

Almost a year

Wow. The last time I actually posted on this blog was almost a year ago. I guess I just got tired of writing that I was up to the same old crap. I'm still in school, and stil double majoring in studio art and psychology. I am in a ceramics class now and I am finding it extremely fun. It is difficult and time consuming, but I really enjoy working with clay. lately I haven't had any free time. I seem to always have a art project to work on and tests to study for. Usually I put all my other classes on the back burner for my art ones though. Anyway, instead of always blogging about whats happening with me, I could blog about other things, things that interest, shock, awe me. I dunno well see how it goes.
