I took 2 drawing classes there and learned more than my entire 4 years at APU. I planned to go back and get a degree from there - I was accepted as an illustration major (for fall '98 I think???), but I decided to get married and move to St. Louis instead. I've always been bummed I didn't get to do it... but I guess not having $85,000 in loans is pretty cool too. Yeah, that’s exactly what I was doing.

I didn\'t have to worry about plugging in and it\'s always been so small and easy for me to use (yes, after having to get used to it and also having a few of those obligatory and annoying 1 oz. pumping sessions.) Also, what were you doing at Art Center during Summer \'96? Taking some \"real\" art classes after receiving your \"fake\" art degree from APU? I only mock because Chris has one, too. ;) Liz - I don\’t know why, but the manual pump was much more my style.

I was actually sick in that sick room before. Summer 96, as I recall. I had a cold and took some stuffy head medicine that made me trip out. So I napped on the cot until I was lucid enough to make it home. (Wow, I’ve never commented before, and now I’m leaving two…)

I have that pump and declared it a piece of CRAP long ago. I was never able to glean a single drop with it. I had to upgrade to the mechanical milking melodies of the Mendela Pump In Style. (Chic black bag included free of cost.) The amazing thing is not that you pumped for a year, but that you used an Avent Isis! I have that pump and declared it a piece of CRAP long ago.
