todayiamadaisyYesterday I had the first of my Photoshop classes. We covered pretty much everything I know about Photoshop last night, so whatever we do next week will be full of learning. I put a photo of toucan in a photo of a fjord and the teacher complimented my mad lassoing skills. Look out, there's no stopping me now.
I'm not sure what to make of the teacher. She was nice enough and seemed to know what she was talking about, but she would start off explaining something, then break off to cackle to herself and mumble a random, unrelated anecdote, then she'd go back to explaining something completely different while flipping through her notes. A bit scatty. It was unfortunate that she knew one woman in the class, and that woman ended up sitting at the one computer in the room that kept freezing and generally not behaving as a good computer should, so the teacher had to spend most time with her to the detriment of the rest of us. Once I was bored with resizing my toucan and moving it around the fjord, I spent much of the class helping the older lady next to me, who was struggling to keep up. And then we finished twenty minutes early because the teacher had tickets to see a ventriloquist. So... hmm. We'll see what she's like next week.
