DONE

I am so glad to have turned in Project 3.  I am so sick of looking at scissors...I am glad its over with.  I am not very proud of my poster but im extremely proud of my process notebook. i cant wait to see what kind of grade i get. i think itll be at least a B :)


I am liking this new project so far, the work load hasnt been HORRIBLE like it has been with the last few projects.  I have done all the required work so far (unlike everyone else) which feels SOOOO GREAT.  I hope there is no sketching with this project.  thats also why i am loving it so far, i havent had to freaking sketch.  i hate sketching.  i hope i continue to love this project as we delve into it further!

Almost Done

I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel!  This project is almost complete, all I have to do is retouch a few and print out the 12 dollar poster (how am i going to afford that?).  Looking around at the other classes makes me want to work really hard to perfect my own.  There are some really good ones with nice balance and color, and some really bad ones where all their sketches look the same.  I feel like mine is right down the middle, not amazing but not terrible.  I am going to make it better though.

I want this to end

This has been the most confusing project i have ever partaken in.  I cannot wait to be done with this.  I think a lot of my problem i that I dont own photoshop or illustrator, let alone know how to use them.  So when i want to use those programs, i have to travel to the design building and convince somebody to step away from their project to help me with mine. its hard to find time to do this because i have a job and have been sick for a month and thus am exhausted all the time.
i dont wanna be in college anymore :(

This Class...

this class is going to kill me.  everyone else's representations look fantastic and I feel like mine look stupid compared to everyone else's.  I am afraid I am going to get a bad grade because mine look so bad compared to other people's but I seriously am doing the best I can.
