the joys and pains of online shopping

Mon Nov 9, 2009, 11:37 AM
Woohoo my new camera and both the lenses have shipped. Amazon claims they'll be here tomorrow. Unexpectedly enough though it wasn't one of the bigger items that is delayed but the cheap piece of plastic/glass UV filter that I have to wait on.

On the other side of the coin damn you bombing science i placed my order two and a half weeks ago got your order confirmation email but never received a shipping confirmation email and am now tangled up in your support system. I probably won't even be able to get what I ordered since I'm pretty sure one of the colors of paint I picked up is no longer available.

Also I haven't really used this page in a long time. I guess at some point I should get around to uploading the years worth of work I've done since my last updates

Holy crap this week got busy

Tue Jun 23, 2009, 2:15 PM
working on a phonebook ad, a sample spread for a book chapter opener and my photography book as well as still having a few things left to do in the darkroom.

Usually if work sneaks up on me its because i got lazy or procrastinated... this is just poor planning on someone else's part for once

BTW, what's the legality of taking a font off of my mac and putting it on my PC?

Currently prepping a book of photographs. I will post some of the shots once I'm done with the publication within the next few days




Also, saw this on someone's journal and it amused me, despite being a 21 year old male

Scholastic optimism

Mon Jun 8, 2009, 12:09 AM
EDIT: Added a lot of work from school from the last year. Have a crappy point and shoot digital that didn't work for about half of the pieces so once I get ahold of a friends dslr for a bit I can get the rest up here without them looking like they might contain the fire of a thousand suns burning in them.


I just found out I could graduate as early as Spring '11. This of course would be awesome, considering that I changed my major after two years of school and spring '11 would mark the end of my fifth year. Hell even if i hadn't changed my major, graduating in five years is actually ahead of the curve.

Here's what I have to do.

Fall '09
Digital Imaging
Typography
Conceptual Ideation
Rise and Fall of Civilization (last gen-ed)

Spring '10
Adv. Typography
Interface Design for the Web
Illustration
Digital Photography*

Summer '10
Intermediate Graphic Design
Intro to Ceramics*
Intro to Sculpture*

Fall '10
Pre-Press Production
Publication Design
Junior Portfolio

Spring '11
3-D Graphics
Senior Project
Senior Seminar
History of Graphic Design**

*I can take wherever I have space in my schedule. I have them placed tentatively
**I can take any Spring semester where I have space in my schedule

I'm pumped. It's gonna be a lot of hard work but I actually have a projected grad date again for the first time since my first semester of school in Fall '06
