So I've been working all day and am taking a break to update my life. There may or may not be pictures depending on how long this takes as I have to get back to work!

My past month(ish) in bullets:

  • Went home for thanksgiving!! It was so so so nice to see some family! For pics of this go see Nino's blog!
  • Came back to school
  • Homework
  • ....More homework
  • Went to the market! Got fruit!
  • Homework :(
  • Can you guess what comes next?

....So that was less exciting than I was hoping. Essentially, I have less than a week left of this semester and I'm somewhere between panic, crisis, and inner peace. It's liberating to know I won't have any homework for three weeks, and terrifying that I have less than 6 days to complete everything I need to do which at this point consists of:

(more bullets)

  • one final book, all content created by me including pictures, hand-bound.
  • two process books, which have to be organized, cut and bound
  • one logo project which has to be applied to a complete line of stationary with an extra application (a calendar in my case) all printed and mounted
  • a working mobile app (working as in conceptually working interfaces in flash, not actually coded to work on a phone)
  • two essays for history of modern design class as well as studying for a written exam
  • final edited video of an interview for a mini-documentary
This list expands 10 fold with the details and process of each of these things to actually get them to be final which all in all just scares the shit out of me :)

In any case, this is the 4th night in a row of 5 hours of sleep or less and definitely will not be the last. However, despite how little sleep I get in the next 6 days, I will be able to sleep indefinitely on break and I have plans to freaking hibernate.

ANYWAY, now that I've thoroughly whined through this blog post, here are some pictures to lighten the mood (mostly taken between the hours of 3am-6am and at hyperactive states of sleep deprivation)
