free free as a bird!

I am done with my studio project! After 5 weeks of intense One Week Projects (got assignment Wed & it was due Wed) we were then given a project that would last us the rest of semester. This project is a thermal spa set in the Kimbell Art Museum. I am completely burnt out so this project was not my favorite, but I told Lime that I would post my project. (note: this is literally just the pictures of the project, it will be going in some layout format after Thanksgiving break).

the good news is that I am done with the project (or at least I hope I am). And I have an International Thanksgiving Potluck tonight, its the last event we have for Bridges (the servant team I lead). Kinda bitter-sweet.

Hey,
So, in one of my design classes we had to enter a competition called GIT 2009. Basically they present you with a problem- this year it was the global recession and we had to figure out how to make saving money funny. So we then have to make a three minute video showing our solution. Here it is....... (don't make fun!)

Lots of STUFF!

Hey Kids!
Watch first, then read.



Here are the other videos.
Delta, Joel & Benji performing a medley of their songs. The whole time I'd heard their rehearsals and semi-heard it on the night. I'm so glad this is on YouTube, it's awesome.


The Burp-off. Featuring Rove, Andrew G and my girls Dash & Will.

Get Some of those Holiday Coffee Cups!!

So, I realize this is suppose to be a video blog but....I don't have time to make a video and I haven't posted anything in a while.
Lets start by saying I miss you all very much and haven't gotten to skype with anyone lately :( !! I am so over this semester its ridiculous. I would appreciate it if it could just end. But it just can't. My design projects are actually pretty cool but I have no interest in them- one I get to design a completely sustainable, off the grid house. So I am currently sitting in studio trying to make myself do work but I just can't!!! AHHHHHH! hahaha

Ok, enough of the pity party, on a good note today is temporary tattuesday! I got Lisa Frank tats today-they are awesome, some are ring tats! So I'm pretty pumped about that and Sara has some delicious Tim-Tams waiting for me. :) OH MY GOSH- STARBUCKS PUT OUT THEIR HOLIDAY CUPS TODAY!! That means it is officially the Holiday season!!! YAY!!! ( If you can't tell I absolutely love the Holiday cups)

But, here is a picture of one of my projects from the beginning of the semester- it was a historically inspired bathroom (can you say exciting!!!) ha



Cheers!

I can't believe it.

I'm so excited.


I have to start paying attention in Political Science or I'm going to fail.
