First I spend $21.50 for making colored prints on campus of the project. The teacher tells me that two of the $6 prints had to be reprinted as they were all 1x1 inch too small while the box they were in was a little off. She also said that the black-and-white envelope and the black-and-white letterhead had to be in color.
I spend $35 making new colored versions of everything. Now the teacher tells me that the box has to look like it came from a store, the card-images have to be mounted, and I have to remount the letterhead, envelope, buisness card, and the logo! That means I have to spend at least another $6 for the box and who knows how much for the bristol board to mount the cards... And guess what's closed?! THE CASHIER DESK! Apparently, they closed an hour before I finally caught the teacher and showed her the stuff! I have to wait till Tuesday to print the box and mount it!
You have little idea how much I am frustrated at the moment! |

You know, they shouldn't be allowed to make you waste your money like that. |

I agree with Maig.
And I hope something happens that could be considered to be Karma related.
Like say the teacher has bad luck. |

At least the campus printers cost less than most others I have seen. Case in point: The 20x30 color prints cost $6 on campus a university within driving distance from my house the same print would cost $35.
And if you think this is truth in that phrase, Francine, you should take a look around in art stores. One of my classmates revealed that a small tube of acrylic paint costs $5 but the turquoise acrylic paint of the same size (and brand) costs $20?! And then there's cost of charcoal, brushes, pens, and so on. Art supplies are really pricey... |

That's why I'm relishing in my dad paying for all my needed supplies right now. :[ |

My parents are paying for the supplies, but the prints I've had to take care of from my own pockets. |

It only gets worse if you have to print from your own printer. My art teacher is always yelling at us if we print color if it's not for a project or something because the ink and paper is like HOLY SHIT money. |

Complain to the school board that your teacher made you pay like $18 for no good reason.

Great job, Medi. You sent a storm right in Spiny's direction.
It's a good thing he didn't get killed by it. |
