After 1st Ever 3D Model, 1st Ever 3D Animation

After successfully completing modeling something, we've now moved onto animating something. During class we were given a whip-thing to animate, as if it's a willow branch waving in the wind. As we were all Ooh-ing at the demo vid on screen, the lecturer said, "Now do that on your screen. You have 20 minutes, go!"

My willow branched looked like a tentacle monster undergoing seizure.

Then we had a dog character turning his head. Lecturer told us to make the transition smoother.

My dog looked like his neck snapped mysteriously half way.

Before Monday was over I was already questioning what the Hell I was doing there, and how the Hell am I ever going to graduate as an Animator.

Now our first animation assignment is ye O' Bouncin' Ballz. Here's what I've got setup so far. Should also draw out a storyboard.
