a glimpse for a portolio

from the last post, the things i was supposed to do [bold means completed]: "finish portfolio. update resume. upload resume to monster. write cover letters. buy printer. print resume + letters. send resume + letters. print portfolio. bind portfolio. visit a friend for a day. go to new york with allison for a day. work a day for boss. cast my back in plaster in 4 positions. do laundry. clean apartment. send packages. design thesis. fix thesis colors. update thesis paper. send thesis paper to professor."

the casting is going to happen today and tomorrow, and the sending of the resume things... well i just don't know what to do about that, considering that I haven't written the cover letters. errrrrr. well, it should happen sometime this week.

got out of town for a little over a day during this week... it was nice to see trees, blue skies, sun, and play with furry things, running around in this thing called a yard. i'm back now, however, and even if i miss grass and yards and the glimpse of how life could be when i'm out of school, i do have a portfolio to show for it.


AND i now have an online portfolio. http://littleonion.carbonmade.com/

a very happy un-spring break / spring un-break to you

i've been on spring a total of 3 days so far... saturday, sunday, and monday. saturday i was at studio for 9 hours, monday for 9.5 hours, and monday for 6 hours. however, if you count the amount of time i was actually working on things, you can add roughly 2 hours to saturday and sunday and 4.5 hours to monday/tuesday. sigh. i don't call this a break.

and what have i been doing all this time might you wonder? portfolio. apparently i'll be needing that to land myself a decent paying job so that i can begin paying off those pesky school loans that i was so excited to get.

plans for the rest of this week? finish portfolio. update resume. upload resume to monster. write cover letters. buy printer. print resume + letters. send resume + letters. print portfolio. bind portfolio. visit a friend for a day. go to new york with allison for a day. work a day for boss. cast my back in plaster in 4 positions. do laundry. clean apartment. send packages. design thesis. fix thesis colors. update thesis paper. send thesis paper to professor.

is that all? maybe.

in the meantime... the latest tickle who may or may not be done. either way, he already found his way into my portfolio. maybe he'll get a make-over at a later date.

a porcupine emerges

before i begin the next stage in a project, i often feel the need to clean, reorganize, rearrange things. this might mean my studio, my life, or my apartment. this time, my apartment got tackled.

and then i cast my back in plaster...

and then i went out of my mind...

i am wearing this lovely fashion statement to my midjury tomorrow, partially the reason why this isn't a real post and simply an image heavy randition of my life for the past week.

this thursday i find out the results of the stewardson competition... and then a night of many many drinks, regardless of the results.

spring break next week. yeah, already. spring freaking break.
