So I’m sitting class minus the teacher right now…in six minutes if he’s not here I think we’re all leaving. I hope he’s okay, but I’m cool with not having class at all… I could totally use the time for illustration homework… GAH! so much to do! Let me break it down for my non-existent viewers…

Portfolio.net:
2nd photoshop mockup for our web portfolio site. fairly easy I guess, once I get into it but that usually takes a while for me to get into that photoshop mode…That and I suck at graphic design…

Futures: Thankfully the presentation for that was yesterday so that’s out of my way. However I do have to do the visual presentation still and that means lots and lots of pinwheels to make…I also have to sort out what my barriers are, what’s stopping me from doing what I want…and redo my “dream schedule”

Sustainability: I’m behind with 3 reports on fresh water and one solar panel project… I’m planning on redoing the 4 reports I have and do the other 3 in a Zine Style since that’s what I’m good at. but that will take time. time that I don’t have much/any of. I also have a reading to do, not that big of a deal there.

Copywriting: the class I’m in at the moment (still no teacher by the way…what am I paying almost $30,000 a year for??? slacking teachers? good lord…) We are doing an ad campaign for Long’s Horseradish. Once he said we’d be working on this all year my mind and dedication checked out. My other classes feel so much more important.

Illustration: Behind with the spot illustration, finished 3 between work and “class” and still have 2 more. they suck but I need something to be done so I can start the homework that’s due tomorrow. Historical Illustration, I’m doing it for the Roman Aqueduct. Tomorrow I have to have all my research photos and some sketches.

Okay, looks like the class is giving up here… toodles for now.

got home from class, avoided passing out from sheer exhaustion and started working on cleaning the studio. It’s still not perfect, but the boxes are out of my way and I can see the floor. Perhaps over Thanksgiving break I will totally re-do it so that it’s organized. so that will be another goal…for now, it’s clean. and one accomplishment is done!

I have too much stuff in my studio… and the cat thinks she takes priority by the window over my cactus… now there is dirt everywhere, my cactus is sad and the cat is exiled from the studio until there is room for her to explore but not knock things over.

The biggest problem is that we just moved, in the middle of the school year. So the priority was to just get the stuff moved and get back to work. Unfortunately now I have all my space in an area that doesn’t work for me. It’s messy and unorganized, there are things out that I don’t need and things I do need are hidden far from easy access. I think when I get home tonight I’m going to take a couple of hours and just go through it, find all the things I don’t actually use on a frequent basis and put it in boxes and put those in the basement so at least things are out of the way. Then the next step will be to take the things I do need and organize them in a way where they are where I need them, when I need them, in such a way that they work for me…

probably easier said then done once life sets in…but that’s the plan for now…
