Live from the Student Center

May 3rd, 2006

Yeah. I’m at the university right now, blogging from the Student Center. The PTB (powers that be) were gracious enough to leave the place open, offering free coffee to students until 2AM. I’m happy to be done with my finals, so I’ve just been surfing the net.

I’m actually here to keep my younger sis company while she studies for her exam in Financial Accounting II. (I just asked her what class it was, and she replied, “It’s the hardest accounting class in the school.”) She’s seriously been stressing all this week that she’s gonna fail the test, but now everything is falling into place, and she’s more confident, which is great, because I was getting tired of her whining. ;).

There are quite a few Japanese students here.

I’m just really tired. I finally got some sleep yesterday, 12 hours actually. When I woke up my body ached, but my legs no longer hurt from all the standing I had been doing. It was replaced by a crook in my neck, however, from sleeping in a weird position. It’s all good though.

I do actually have a point to this entry. My Senior Portfolio review went really well. I was so out of it from lack of sleep that it didn’t really sink in until later. My instructors only had positive things about my work, with a few critiques on technical aspects of my work. My Senior Portfolio instuctor told me, and I quote, “You’re a good designer, but you’re a great illustrator.” Can you say, “squeee“?. That’s friggin’ awesome. Especially since it was coming from a veteran designer/illustrator. So, I have something to be happy about. It’s not that I didn’t know that I was a decent artist before, but it feels good to have validation from someone with experience.

I’ll try to get the work from my portfolio posted on my site finally. It’s seriously lacking. I also have many pictures to post, but I’m tired right now.

I’ll try to have pics up in the next post.

    Sometimes people do need to be reminded that they are good at something. Keep grinding if you ever have any question. I’m on AIM most of time.
