jazzfish: an open bottle of ether, and George conked out (Ether George)
Man, I hate design lab.

We're supposed to put together a gallery of our best work to show off. Fine and dandy. Except that well over half of the gallery exhibits are new work, assigned specifically for design gallery. This strikes me as counter to the idea of showing off our best work.

I'm entirely done with Costume, except for the part which isn't going to get done at all. I'm just about done with Lighting: one small sketch that wants shadows and one that wants existence. Scenic is really kicking my ass. Redo the study model, redo the color sketch [or not; I may skimp on that part], redo the floor plan [done], and write up a no-more-than-one-page justification of my existence my designs. [I am so tempted to print, in big bold letters, "I don't feel that I need to explain my art to you, Warren." Probably a result of too little sleep.]

It's the gallery display that's really going to kill me, though. The grading handout for Scenic says "If it looks like a 5th grade bulletin board it will be graded as such." This does not bode well for arriving at 9:15 and setting my crap up quickly.

I think I've had five cups of tea this evening. The first one was Lady Grey; the rest have been from a company called Tazo [slogan: "The reincarnation of tea"], a brand called "Awake."

Whee. I hate design lab. I'll hate it again next semester, too.

Yeah. That sounds about right.
