This is one of my favorite portraits. Long live the drape-cut suit.

• Went back to school; starting with second-semester Package Design on monday morning at 8am. We were assigned a new project and dismissed by 8:30am.
• Went to the library and picked up some new books; got some reading done.
• Had the first friendship lunch of the semester, which was well-attended and wonderful.
• On tuesday morning, had the first Burleigh’s ad class.
• Moved one classroom next door and did Advanced type, also with Mr. Burleigh.
• Went to Draping, a once-weekly class taught by Cheryl Steele, a person I really like. It’s required for fashion majors but I was allowed to join. It looks like it’ll be lots of fun!
• After that, started my new job as an in-house graphic design intern at OhioHealth. Worked for literally two hours and went home at quitting time. Tuesdays are long days.
• Went back to OhioHealth on wednesday and worked a ten hour day (8am–6pm). It was draining.
• On thursday morning, had my back-to-back Burleigh classes again.
• Went back to OhioHealth and worked for three hours. (I have to work fifteen hours a week. How’s that for distributing my time evenly?)

I have a band called Nigel Ewan and the Orange Vic, and we just released an album called VicCafé. I’ll be posting some songs here later today, but you can download the whole album for free now! The included digital booklet explains everything.
