As of Late

Things have been pretty hectic as of late. Last week wasn't a real winner for me when it came to catching my nightly "Z's." The semester is winding down and it always seems like no matter how on top of things you are, the last few assignments and semester-finishing activities always come with fury. I think professors feel the same too.

The BFA review for my graphic design emphasis was on Friday and preparing for that took a nice chunk of time. I started my first-ever woodcut last week too. I must have gone to the printer (or Hallie) a million times to drop off and pick up assignments that needed quality, professional printing. Crazy week. Good news is I made it into the design program. And I got almost everything accomplished I had hoped to.

Reviewing the last week or so in my mind, has once again, made me feel very lucky/blessed to have this chance to be back in school and pursuing my dreams—dreams that will hopefully support my family soon. Is there anything better than being able to work for a living doing something that you like to do? I don't think so. As my thoughts are continually swirling around in my mess of head, I always come back to how thankful I am for Hallie and the sacrifice she is making for all this to be taking place and for her undying support and strength. Thank you Hallie, I love you. Forever.

Yeah, you got a good one in Hallie! Good luck with everything. It's been YEARS, but I still remember the end of the semester. Guh.
