I went into uni today (but not yesterday) and I did a whole lot of work. It was really fun in the end. My friend Sachsquatch came to hang out with me and talk while I did some painting. He filmed some impromptu performance work of his own as well. My next project is going to require a whole lot of canvas boards which I found in a store near uni, but they cost approximately $1.75 each. Considering I need more than fifty of those bad boys, that's quite a lot. I have a couple of ideas for other performances to do in the meantime, so hopefully my lecturers won't be too pissed off at me when I see them next (they weren't around today).

I checked my results the other day, despite my lecturers being grouchy and threatening to fail people I nearly got a credit for practical. That usually isn't any great achievement, but it was better than I expected. I did however fail Theories of Art Practice. I'm not surprised seeing as how I didn't hand in the essay worth 70%. It means I will have to come back next year to do the subject again and they won't let me graduate till I finish it. I'm actually not that unhappy about it really, granted I'd love to not come back next year but it could be worse. I have friends in second year anyway and it might encourage me to actually keep making work after university.

I'd like to start submitting proposals to galleries soonish. Unfortunately I am not really all that knowledgeable about smaller galleries in Sydney that would be likely to show my stuff. I might have to talk to my lecturers about it I guess.
