I'm going to strangle my typography groupmates..... Strangle them for real.....
We have a group typo assignment. The assignment is a final project.
Step 1 : Make a typeface -> Finished
Step 2 : Decide typeface's name and the body copy -> I thought it's decided....
Step 3 : Make the layout sketches -> in progress
My group, my group (yes, I said it twice) consists of a quiet girl with really good drawing skill and ideas, a boy who seems to be carefree and often leaves studio to just wandering around, a cheerful girl whose sketches my friend wanted to rip off to pieces, and another girl who is the type to 1.BBM-ing 2.Taking photos at wrong time and place 3. Talking about blackberry, newest ones, the updates, etc etc 4. Doesn't want to use even one of her brain cells to think 5. Pisses me off.
Well, at first I thought my group isn't really that... bad.
Now, I'm trying not to reconsider.
The thing that pissed me off today is :
I thought we decided the typeface's name (Garden) and bodycopy (flowing, breathing, alive) last Friday.
But when the quiet girl sent me her thumbnail so I can forward it to our tutor, I found out that in her thumbnail, she used "Spring" and not "Garden", and "As the warm breeze passes, a smile will surely grow on your lips" instead of those 3 words. And just yesterday, the carefree boy sent me his thumbnails too, and although he used "Garden" as the typeface name, he used "enjoy the beauty" as the bodycopy.
Yesterday, my patience was still intact and I could let it slip.
Today, my little, small, tiny, precious, bubble of patience, burst. For good...........
Way to go to make me scream like there's no tomorrow, guys. I want to salute you all.
