things that are good:

• I got all of my stuff moved to the new house, but right now it's all just piled in a big mass in the middle of the bedroom, so I'll need to spend some time shuffling things around until it looks like an actual decent living space. It will be like one of those puzzle games where you have a little plastic square frame filled with square pieces, each with a small section of a picture printed on its face, and you only have one empty square space to use to slide the pieces around to assemble the picture (WHAT ARE THOSE CALLED?).
• new year's eve! I'll be partying in Pearblossom.
• 12 more days of Winter break.

things that are bad:

• Now that it's the new year, I (ie my parents) have a fresh new batch of dental insurance money, which means it's time to finish getting my teeth fixed. I have an appointment on Friday for fillings :( In the long run this is obv more of a Good Thing than a Bad Thing, but I'm not looking forward to it.
• When my parents and I went to Pasadena yesterday to move my furniture, we got to my house and I found that I didn't have my keys. Bad bad news. Luckily, I am irresponsible and had left my bedroom window unlocked, so I just hopped in. Even luckier, I am an idiot and it turned out I had only left my keys lying on the back seat of the truck--not in Lancaster. 
• My laptop battery life isn't the greatest these days. So I've gotta go!
  

So it's been a little while! Here's what's been up:

- Las Vegas!

illustration design lab: B+
illustration design: A-
image and idea: A-
color theory: A

pretty good.

+ I made it to Lancaster. yay.

I tried to go to Lancaster but my evil schemes were foiled by The Weather. I did not know that the 14 fwy was closed due to snow, so I made it almost 2/3 of the way there before being stopped dead in my tracks, along with hundreds of other people in vehicles who were apparently similarly unaware of the closure. Traffic was at a standstill for over an hour while the city people tried to organize getting everyone off at the next exit and turned around. It was also raining fairly heavily. I eventually got turned around and made it back to my place. It was a sucky way to waste a few hours.

When I got home I made a pity pizza for myself and now I am eating it. It's cheering me up a little but I am still sad to be stuck in rainy Pasadena while it is snowing in Lancaster. Snowing! It hasn't snowed there since like 2004. Not fair.

Okay I am so full of pizza now. I need to put it away before I hurt myself.

Grad show pics from the other day.

part of the illustration hallway:

and this is what the building across the bridge looks like during finals week. All the transportation design guys (and the like two transportation design girls) have their drawings of cars and junk up all over the walls and stand there for hours taping them. I don't really understand the process.

Transguys

They were still setting up the gallery when I was there. Messy!

Peeking in from the side window, I could see the two things of mine that got in. Here's my drawing on the right, under that mountainous landscape and just above those 3D abstract things..

And my colorful poster, in the upper left-hand portion of the wall (Yeah, they hung it sideways! But it's alright, I spose it works that way too)

Share the last song you listened to.

Here are a handfull of the images I made for ill design lab. There are 43 images total, and all together they make up a book.

The second part of the final, after the completed book, was to create a large-scale version of one (or more) of the book images. I made this triptych and printed it digitally as an oversize poster (roughly 16" x 48"). This one got into the gallery too!

I used the big scanner at school to re-picture all of these things, so here they are, all together (minus Jeff, who is in the gallery) and in much better quality than I was getting by taking digital photos:
