These past couple have classes have really gotten me pumped about design as my major! the presentations that we had from the Design Circle people and the Cobergo (i couldnt remember their company name) people. between talking about what i should expect to talking about the entrance exam, they both really got me looking forward to the future and also calming my lurking fear of the entrance exam and process. i also really enjoyed the video about girl talk! i didnt think a documentary could be so interesting, they are usually so dry and boring but this one made talking about copyright stuff really interesting. i also never thought about how much money mash-up artists like Girl Talk and Supermash Bros would actually have to pay for their songs, i think they shouldnt have to pay anything as they make new creations with the songs and dont just straight copy the whole song and ideas of the song. I'm Looking forward to what the future of the class has in store!

A04

For this assignment i went half and half on things outside vs inside, many of the things that were outside i found on my daily commute to campus and the things inside i recognized while just hanging around the house. i really liked this exercise as it made me more observant when doing mindless tasks such as driving home, almost giving me a new goal while doing things i normally do. 

For this assignment i found the following letters: A,C,D,I,J,M,O,P,S,T,U, and V 

also i will try to make an incredibly cheesy pun/joke/use the letter as much as possible for each picture... because i can.....

A
A(pun......) mailbox!

C
I hope those Corks dont Catch fire
D
This Door has got a pretty Dashing locky Do-hicky thing on it
 

i
The mailbox post has got a pretty Insane paint job......that was pretty bad.... :( 
J
Just Jiggle the handle and feel the Jolly that ensues for Justifying opening the door!
M
My gluteus Maximus Makes its home in this Marvelous chair (pic sucks, sorry)
O
This Old fan Operates at an Overly fast speed

P
The Postman Puts this Plastic down when he Pilages ones mailbox for their Packages 

S
I found this one as i Swerved down a Steep and Scary Side Street 
T
This patio was made from These bricks by peoples sweat and Tears (not really Tears)

U
Underneath the surface level appearance, the Upkeep at this old folks housing Unit is Unacceptable (its actually really good)
V
This is a bench turned upside-down, V is for Victory because this is the last letter!!!! i could not think of anything else that was even slightly clever...
aaaaaannnnnnnnnddddddddddd we're done, sorry you had to suffer through all those terrible descriptions!!!
