Harvard on a Sunday

My boyfriend and I spent our Sunday in Harvard Square. We rolled out of bed and were greeted by a beautiful crispy morning. I was finally able to pull out my tall boots and was able to throw on that extra layer. We had breakfast at Tory Row. I've been slowly easing myself back into eating solid foods so I got this amazing veggie frittata and some home fries. 

Following breakfast we meandered through Harvard's campus, pretending we were every bit as smart as those guys. We finally made it to one of my favorite spots in Cambridge, the Museum of Natural History. While I could do without the creepy bug exhibit, the mineral and glass flower exhibits never get boring. In fact when Andrew told me he wanted to go I said "They have an awesome rock collection!" He thought I was being sarcastic, but I was completely serious. 

Here's to good food, good company, and an awesome rock collection! Oh and to more Sundays like this one.

Rise & Graphic Design

My Sunday consisted of glue, Scotch magic tape, scissors, and lots and lots of iced coffee. With this week being my last week of classes, it's go time. This is my "Graphic Design Journal." The contents include some observations of various forms of graphic design, my design process, class notes, and my papers. While having all of this info in the same place is a great idea, putting it all together is a job in itself.

I woke up around 9:30 exhausted from the week and the weekend itself, I amped myself up with an iced coffee and a bagel and worked all day until Jacky came home and talked me into taking a walk. I then returned and continued my work until 7:00pm. 

I'm not even done yet.

While I thought that I would actually enjoy my graphic design class, I was sadly mistaken. While graphic design itself interests me a great deal, something about this class and I simply did not click. Regardless, I did learn a lot and will take those lesson with me.
