Since this is my last post ever it's only fitting I do it a day late and at the last minute.
DMA has been my favorite class since freshman year and Shields and Barnes have been my favorite teachers. Without them I wouldn't be going to college for something I'm passionate about (real talk: I probably wouldn't even be going to college.) I can't thank them enough for all the time and advice they've given me over the last 4 years. And to my DMA class: you pale pasty awkward art kids have been the most fun class of weirdos I could have asked for and some my best moments of high school are with you guys. Now some wise words for future DMA kids. Number one; when being arrested while watching house hunters, always remember to hit record. Number two; always make the best of a situation: example, when I was in prison for a day, did I just sit in my cell the entire time? NO--I went out there and challenged those delinquents to a game of Yahtzee and made some life long friends. Number three; this is the most important, when skipping school with DMA kids, always make it a memorable day. For example, go downtown and get kicked out of a sex toy store for forgetting your ID and then go to the art museum and touch the Van Gogh painting when no one's looking.
And now I say goodbye. I loathed almost everything about Kings High School (did I mention they sent me to prison) but DMA made it bearable so thanks for that. Next year I'll be attending the School of Visual Arts in New York City where I’ll be majoring in design, and I expect all of the 2016 AP DMA class to come visit me. No matter how far we move away from each other never forget YAHTZEE!!!!

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

IMPRESSED BUT YOU CAN DO MORE Apple......

FOR THE UNINFORMED: Mrs. Shields may kill me for how long this post to the blog is, but she can deal with it :P Alright... I just want to state that I love Apple to death and get that out of the way but I AM GOING TO RANT for a little. Apple introduced the new "iPad Air" to the world today, among other things. The starting price for a 16GB silver OR black iPad Air is $499, and if you want 8x the storage with the 128GB version, it'll set you back $799. To put that into perspective, if you were to buy a 2.3GHz Mac Mini that has a quad core Intel Core i7 (the fastest processor Intel makes, starting at the i3, i5, and then the i7), 4GB of DDR3 ram, and a 1TB hard drive, it'll set you back $799. So you can buy a pretty very good Mac computer (I have one at home but better haha) or a new iPad. Anyways....  The iPad Air weights only A pound (yes one pound), is only 7.5 millimeters thick (Apple advertises that by saying 7.5 millimeters THIN), has a 9.7...

Bye For Now DMA

      Well since I'm a senior, then this is probably going to be my last blog post. Next year, I am going to do the Digital Design program at the Warren County Career Center for college credit, so I'm still going to do some DMA stuff after graduation. It's been very cool to be making cool stuff here and I'll miss you guys and I know your going to miss me and my dog Max.
