   The one part of ceramics class I don't enjoy is the assignment to visit a ceramics exhibition and write a one-page paper on it.

   I am fine with writing the paper, and I enjoy looking at other people's ceramics, but I live on the east side of LA, and all the arts stuff in LA is on the west side. Driving way out to the west side of LA is an awful experience.

   I've been putting it off all semester and now it's the last week before my assignment is due.

     I really like that Kristy Moreno piece top right. Witty.

     Of course, since I've put it off so long, most of the exhibitions our instructor suggested have already closed. I've put myself in quite a pickle once again

     @botvolution @fredy which one? There are two of her pieces, and my phone isn't arranging them in a grid

     Fun & wit is rather often seen as devaluing the "value" of art, doesn't get taken seriously.

     Ridiculous attitude. As if you have to have a furrowed brow when art presents itself.

     @botvolution The ruling classes and their lackeys are too dignified for fun
