School:
Is tempting me to buy a goood digital camera. We've got a project due in Design that requires the use of our own photos. All that I have are these far-away shots on 3X5 prints and they aren't working well at all.
It looks like 3DStudio Max is gonna be a good companion to AutoCAD. It's a rendering and presentation program that makes cool videos and stuff. A lot of video games are designed on it (the ones that arent made in Maya, apparently). I think I can get in good with some interior designers with it.
Life:
I got into counseling. It's good so far. Going once a week, dealing with my stress and anxiety about being in the wrong program and having no future when I get out of it.
Sam and I went to the DMA last night. They had a showing of "Modernist" artists (1919-1925 or so). It's amazing how well some of those pieces still work today (and how many are being immitated by the company I used to work for). It was a really nice little night out.
Work:
Got a student membership to the IIDA (interior design group mainly focused on commercial interiors). They have monthly meetings that I can get into now. Researched some networking meetings. Planning to start going to those next Friday, see if I can't get some more freelance jobs rolling.
Fitness: So. I'm taking a P.E. class this semester (walking for fitness or some crap like that). And yesterday, our class merged with another one for Pilates.
Today? It hurts to breathe!
