much overdue
This first week back has definantly presented itself with a lot to be said!!
It was one of those weeks that went by in a flash of an instant, but encompassed a whole lifetime of events...i know you know what im talking about.
let me tell you of the blessings and greatness of Christ! i am forever grateful for his mercy and grace.
Wednesday was my big critique with the creative director of publix nationwide. ::nervous::
and i found out on Monday that my Junior Reveiw was Thursday....way to be on top of things guys. So needless to say I was going absolutely insane, no sleep and very little food. But i made it through guys!
Wednesday's crit went really well, i was really nervious to be critiqued by a total stranger at such a professional level...but i did really good once i started talking. Anyway after it was all over he picked his top 3 favorites and then his number 1...MINE! i was so giddy. and i got a free shirt comon! so we took a break, my prof went outside to talk to Cox (the publix guy) and i left to get some water or something...pass out on the concrete or something. So class resumed, and Erik yelled for me, I assumed to come back to class, but instead he stopped me and said what a great job I did and how Cox was really impressed with me and wanted hire me for an internship...holy crap unexpected!! i was just trying to survive...you know? I found out later that he had also sent bob an e mail personally telling him how impressed with me he was and my presentation.....you're talking about a person who, at the thought of speaking in front people used to become deathly ill....now apparently im not to shabby. "youve come a long way...." ;)
right so then the junior review was the next day, i wasnt to sure how that went. I knew it didnt go baddly, but i wanted feedback. Bob came and talked to me at the end and i said i wasnt sure about how it went and he said something along the lines of "are you kidding? you nailed it!" and then the new art professor who i havent gotten to talk to much came up to me and confirmed that fact, and said she was excited to see what i will be doing in the future. yay!
next night, opening of the student art show, i got 5 of my graphics peices in and some photography...::holler!:: and i didnt even submit anything, my professors were like, we're stealing these for the show. lol. nice. and then on top of that, my graphics work won me some cash money! woot
Then after the opening we went to Roly's dance class for wellness, cuz that was due wed. still had like 4 or 5 left to do. any way after that he stamped the rest of my wellness sheet so i was done!! holy crap...he's my hero. just one less thing on my plate, and trust me what i had still there was quite enough.
This week has been killer too, but little things get you through you know? I missed my printmaking crit preparing for my junior review and publix and stuff....so i had to finish all my work for that in a weekend, plus a paper, plus cantilivers critique on wed, and study for a final on wed. daaaang does it end? im slowly having to come to terms with the fact that for me...it doesnt.
so i got all that done, and done well enough...then i had my printmaking final today that i was up all night finishing...whew...im so exhausted guys but get this
daniela, flowers and i went to starbucks last night and got drinks and espresso beans. they sorta just forgot to make daniela's so i went and said something and they made it AND gave me a coupon for a free drink because of the mess up. yeeeessss! so were drinkin and talking about stuff, when one of the baristas puts a peppermint mocha frapp on the table and says this is for whoever wants it....we just look at eachother like are you serious!!! YEEEA!! awesome. simply en fuego.
so now my crap is done for this week....but i still have my work cut out for me this weekend, mattias and i have to prepare 2 cantilevers book designs to go get printed...yea 2, the literary staff coudnt decide between our designs, so they want them both mocked up....yay....
however it is an amazing portfolio opp...just a lot of work..
alright.
