A Little About Vee Vee

I am a junior at Winthrop University,currently majoring in Illustration and also minoring in Spanish. I get scared sometimes about my degree choice because I like too many things, such as graphic design, various forms of art, astronomy, other sciences, etc. So I am working on straightening all of this out.

I Got Through It..Now It Is Time To Move On

I actually got through Specialization Review today at 12:30 pm!!!!! OMG I thought I was gonna throw up...crap my pants.....cry........have an anxiety attack......but nothing like that happened!!!!! i was just walking with puddles in my shoes.. lol... It actually wasn't that bad and we all find out if we passed or not tomorrow, which I know i didn't because i have to work on my craft...and the grid... :/ 

Gerry Derksen and Dave Brown told me to look through graphic design and illustration magazines, annuals, books, etc and make compositional thumbnails and use my analytical brain (because i told them i don't come from an art background, i come from an academic one) and analyze why each piece is effective. And then apply that knowledge to my own work.

Stokes wants me to look into paper mechanics because he was really digging my pop up tire on my brochure layout...and he said i should study more pop-up mechanisms and he might get me an interview with hallmark cards!!! lol!!!

And Chad was really interested that I do come from an academic background and that i don't know what i really want to do yet...and also that i have Spanish as a minor... heh. So i don't know what all that means... 

Anyways...i got through it...and now it is time to focus on my actual exams!!! i have five exams to go!!!! Woot!!!!!!!!! The semester is almost over!!!!! Shyeah!!!!
