Present Joys
“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

What I did this week (12 apr 2013)

  • Turned in my ten-week package design project; had a crit. Received very high praise from my teacher: “Everyone look at this: this is what a ten-week project should look like! I’m giving Nigel an A+.”
  • Ate lunch at the new Hills Market with Ian and Sarah (who both bought humongous Frostop drinks) and Don (who should have bought a giant Frostop if he wanted in on the photo).
  • Started on new projects in tuesday morning in: in Ad Concepts, I started a new team project to re-position White Castle. (I’m working with Amanda and Jason, the usual suspects.) In Advanced Type, I started a new project to sell baby food to teenage girls.
  • Continued to be very stressed in Cheryl Steele’s draping class. The latest little burden: I have to go watch a lecture monday morning and write a paper in time for next tuesday’s class.
  • Almost forgot to take a test for my online Intro to Psych class. Phew—that was a close call!
  • Made a ton of progress on my team project to re-position White Castle. So much progress, in fact, that we decided to take a field trip to White Castle during class.
  • Got stuck in the elevator in Crane. It went up to the third floor, made a scary sound, and slowly sunk to the second floor. Scary! (I only use the elevator a few times a year. Go figure.)
  • Had a bad attitude about the brand-new warm weather this week. Temperatures got into the high 70s! My body was not made for weather this warm.
