Studying :( Instead of Having Fun

Studying is still my life. I am so sorry I could not attend class today and visit the exhibit, but there was an Economics review session that really helped me prepare for the final. I already regret not going with all of the class today, but if I get an "A" on my economics final it will be worth it. I hate that I favored getting an "A" over spending a great time with some new friends, but getting good grades and a great education is why my parents are paying an obscene amount of money for me to attend DU. If I could not work my hardest and deliver amazing grades then I would be letting my parents down and I would feel like a failure. 
I hope everyone had a great time! I am really sorry I missed it, but I could not reason giving two hours to have fun when I could be preparing for approaching finals. This is in no way a reflection upon the class...like I said I would have loved to come. I really enjoyed this class. It taught me about life experience through photographers like Sally Mann, Henri Cartier-Brasson, Hal Gould, and Annie Liebovitz, it taught me about the importance of timing, light, and framing within a picture, it taught me about cultures through meeting Ting and seeing how big the difference can be just within different states in the united states, but as it was teaching me about differences it also taught me about similarities and unity. I loved how people from all over the U.S. could get along so well in such a short period of time. (It really was short, and I'm sad about that.) I hope I get to see everyone next quarter...we should totally set aside some lunch or dinner outings! Roddy I will definitely stop in and stay hi and seek some more of your photographic advice. Roddy and everyone, thank you for a great Freshman Seminar and entrance into DU!!!
