No. This is not me complaining about my grades for class...>>
Well, it sort of related. In design class we just got back our grades for our Relief Project (Flat work that pops out/caves in) and the professor had a tally of all the A+s to the Ds. (Nobody failed.)
Well me and my partner at our table (who both had fucked up plaster jobs. I'll explain if you ask. >>) thought it'd be one of us. Apperently it wasn't. (i got a c, but hey i thought id do worse). Some lady who worked super hard on doing her piece (and polishing, and cleaning, and scaling and...etc) got it. And she was so pissed! Lets get the standards staright here.
Requirements for this project.
Developed/Clear forms/shapes
12 {MAX AND MIN} shapes including 3 Square/3 Circle/3 Triangle and 3 organic (non geometric planes) forms. These include their obvious 3D form, (cube/sphere etc.)
3 Different layers of space
Abstract/Non Symmetrical
What she had was like
20 or so nice, clean EXACT squares making a staircase.
They were very clean, exact but... missed out on about EVERY requirement. (too many shape, no organic,triangles,circles) and everything. She got the D. FOr not following directions obviously.
She like storms at the professor and goes on and on about, I WORKED SO HARD ON THIS, PUT SO MUCH EFFORT and yatta yatta. But like, you didnt follow the directions, you don't get a good grade! You'd think this is common sense or something. She was so angry, the professor was like
"If you wont discuss this calmly, i won't talk to you."
It was high school all over again! She walked out of the class fuming. It was horrible... and yet horribly amusing at the same time!!
Or maybe it were those headaches i've been getting...
