1st Update!

Here is an update on how school ended this semester. I am going to break it down, so that the post doesn’t get too long. In this post, I'm going to go through the non-design and online classes: Math, History, and Textiles.

Math: Math was difficult, but I passed the class. I learned that math online is a very bad idea.

History: This class ended pretty well, but by the end of the of the term, the test became last on the list. I was becoming slack, I was burnt out. But, I did enjoy doing a project about Philip Johnson, the architect. He is a very inspiring designer. I've learned alot and I passed!

Textiles: Textiles was good. The notebook turned out well, but it was a crazy weekend before it was due. But, overall, it was a good class.

The holidays are crazy enough to start with, but add projects and assignments, it 'bout near drives you crazy. I'll get the posts for Residential and Commercial up soon. 

By The Way...

I think I found my new font...City Blue Print. This will only be used when I pre-type my posts!

Re-Cap!

I’ve got some time to kill today, so I thought I would give ya’ll an update on school stuff. I’m trying some new fonts, to see which ones read well on the blog. So, let's get started!

 Residential:All we have left to do is present and turn in the job book. The boards are done, and the project book is done! That was my sole focus during the break...so it wasn't much of a break. I'll post pictures of the boards in a week or so.

Commercial: The Godiva project has been done with for a month now. We have now moved onto the Randolph County EMS call center. We made it one big group project. I was in charge of the specs, and this now is done! We will present next Thursday on the 9th.

Textiles: The fabric notebook is done! It was a semester long project, but you know how procrastination is a prominent characteristic in college. But, it is done, and in the drop-off box! Only 1 more test in that class. YAY! O, and we are going to Showtime next Wednesday! That should be fun!!

History: Boy, we have had our struggles with this class this semester, but it is almost over! I am working on a presentation on an architect. My architect is Philip Johnson. He was a pretty cool guy, with awesome glasses! He was a true visionary! Go check him out!!!!! We also have 1 more test in that class!! Yay!!!!!

Math: 1 more test and a final, then that pain will disappear!!! Wish me luck on those, cause I have had my issues with that class too.

So, that is my school life for the semester! But, with Christmas coming, I will have a whole month of "Emily Time", and I and so excited to sleep, read books, and watch TV and movies!! I have to Thank Abby C. for the knowledge about Celtic Thunder. They are an amazing Irish group of men!!!!! Any accent is amazing, especially an Irish one! Just thought I would share with you who I have been obssessed with for the past few weeks! Anyway, sorry this was so long, but I had alot to catch-up on!! Have a great weekend!!!!! 

Celtic Thunder - Lauren and I

I must say a quick "Thanks" to Abby C. This song is amazing, and so is his voice! His accent is quite nice as well. Just thought I would share this magic with you! Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! Updates on the outcome of school and recent events will come shortly.

Letters to Juliet

I adore this movie! I have watched in twice within the past 2 nights. And, may I say, Amanda Seyfried is an amazing actress! I personally love when Charlie climbs up to the balcony in the end, and of course when Lorenzo comes into the picture! Such a cute movie! Sorry, You’ve Got Mail, but Letters to Juliet has now become my go-to movie!

Oh Father OUTRO - Paramore 7/7/09 - Islington Academy

This is one of the many awesome reasons that I adore Paramore. They play a song, that is simply amazing, and then they play an even more amazing “outro”. Here are the lyrics to that “outro”:

Oh Father
Oh Father
Oh Jesus
Father, well I am ready,
Won’t you let it begin?
Cos I am here now,
I want to dance in
The mighty palm of your hand

This song is a testament to their faith. I am a Christian, and I support them in what they are doing.  I love the fact that Hayley is practically worshiping on stage. And I also love that in another video, they show a video of the nail scarred hands, or what I assume are the nail scarred hands. That part gave me chills. So, thanks Paramore. Are you not only an AMAZING band, but you serve an AMAZING God. I will always and forever be a fan!
