Tag senior year


Today I flew to Minneapolis with these fabulous people. Tomorrow begins AIGA’s annual conference. Lots to do!

Day 25: tue, 8 oct 2013. Jewelry teacher Anne Holman breaks jewelry lab rules and serves tea and snacks in class, endearing herself to me for eternity.
What I did this week (4 oct 2013)
- Had an action-packed week in jewelry. Worked on weaving a fine silver chain and fabricating its clasp, polishing and finishing cast rings, squeezing things in the hydraulic press, and patinating all the things.
- Attempted to concentrate on big nonprofit project, due next tuesday. Had trouble concentrating.
- Asked for and received many tips on making delicious bloody marys.
- Got free breakfast in class on wednesday morning. But who buys bagels without cream cheese?
- Ate lunch with Amanda in the jewelry lab, by which I mean: Amanda and I met in the jewelry lab where she worked in Photoshop and I loudly filed metal and neither of us ate any food because eating is not allowed in the jewelry lab.
- Watched avant-garde non-American 1960s films in History of Cinema.
- Lots more time and occasional aggravation in the jewelry lab. While putting the finishing touches on my bronze/rose quartz ring, wore a hole straight through the bezel.
- Had good talks and fun times with friends. Helped distress posters by sitting on them. Got kinda annoyed at Squarespace’s total world domination.
- Went on a minor adventure with Julia and discovered that the Interior Design students are hoarding maracas.
- Friday morning, met up with Theresa and Anna outside a nearby church to take some stealthy photos for my project (the one due tuesday). Narrowly avoided being yelled at by a bow-tied man in a pink oxford.
- Finished up some work in the jewelry lab; ran into La-Neka; literally polished away one of my fingerprints (it hurt).

Day 24: fri, 4 oct 2013. Theresa helps me with photography for an upcoming project, receiving some odd looks.

Day 23: thu, 3 oct 2013. While searching for Mr. Lutz, Julia and I find ourselves in a mysterious Interior Design classroom where we found Dora the Explorer-branded maracas.
