I don’t have to look presentable at home.

The ‘rents threw me a grad party on Memorial Day at the golf club in Blue Springs. It’s the same place we have all the grad parties in my fam, but this was the first college one. It’s hard coming from a family of engineers and nurses to be the first graphic designer, so I think people appreciated the visual aids. Here are some pics:

Works from school. Jill sort of forced me to display these. I don’t even have half of these in my current portfolio. The interesting part of this table is that I found my “portfolio” from elementary school. I think those works got more of a looksie than anything else. 

Who would’ve thought I’d see this display again? Man, it looked pretty slammin’ at nite.

I guess I should talk about what I’ve been working on, since I claim this is my design blog. Currently, I am working on some Super Saturday 12 stuff through Leah. You can find more info about the gig here. In addition to all the collateral that goes with that, I am still working on my personal site and possibly a logo for myself. I’m also trying to get some brochure designs in for the hospital for where my mother works. Recently, though, I started working on a layout for a website for a family friend of our’s. Here is a screencap thus far:

Oh, but back to my grad party. I got some sweet gifts (and ca$h moniez), one of my favorites being this pretty sweet purple water bottle. It’s no Sigg (Joyce), but it is aesthetically pleasing, it came with one of those cooler tubes you put in the freezer and a straw! But I’m not that into sucking, so I took it out. (laugh it up) Here is a picture of me and my sweet H20 bottle. And in my defense, yes, the picture of my “indifference” from a few posts down shows me wearing something similar. But I have 2 v-neck gray t-shirts and I always look shitty when I’m at home. Get over it!

Purple water bottle = thumbs up!
