Recess at Renco

Hey and welcome back to my life as a Senior in College. I am soaking up every week we have left of our semester. While I'm enjoying it, its never going to be enough. Hate to be cynical and all, but the constant stress and approaching deadlines are becoming more of a burden. Enough complaining though, here are some Senior project updates I promised you guys! I think it's going pretty well!

Senior Project UPDATE: Nintendo Rewind


These are nearly completed mock ups of my project that will be printed on a poster board. There will be some minor changes along the way, but for the most part, this is what it will look like! I will be rendering the boxes you see in the next coming days, I just need to go out and get all the supplies needed. My friends and I will be having our portfolio show May 3rd at the Prairie center of the Arts and another show in Heuser May 17-18. Both shows will be form 6-8 pm. I am very excited to be showing the final product as well as my portfolio from my four years here. The remainder of this week and the upcoming weekend will be continuing to get this project done, revising older projects, and ordering supplies. This is what I have been working on the past couple days so that's where a majority of my time is going. Hopefully all turns out well and I can deal with the remainder of classes.





Recess at Renco


Aside form work and school, I got to blow off some steam and attended Bradely's first ever Recess at Renco! The concert had three performers this year and they were all pretty dope. Jessie McCartney, Andy Grammer, and T-pain are artists I don't listen to on the regular but I was familiar with a good amount of songs from each performer. I was really there for T-pain though, but I still appreciated that Jessie and Andy were on time. Anyway, Andy Grammer's "Grown Ass Man Child" was pretty catchy. I didn't think I was going to like him out of the three, but he was a very engaging performer which I appreciated. Well, that's about it for this week's blog. Until next week folks. Peace.

  1. Your senior project looks great. I really like how it is coming together!. I had the same thoughts about the concert. I don't really listen to any of those artists music but I thought it was pretty cool to see TPain live.

#stress

What's up? This week I am back and will cover some days I've either enjoyed or days that are filled with stress! Don't worry, it's mainly good days! First off, the senioritis and stress are in full swing as I balance on with my Senior project, deadlines, and social life. The ride isn't over yet, so let's jump in Friday After my working out with one of my buddies at Markin we decided to hit up Corelife Eatery because nothing better like eating healthy food after a good workout! (We had coupons for a free meal so we took advantage). Let me just say Corelife is a really nice place to eat at. I believe they opened a little over a year ago and I tried it for the first time last year as well. While the food is good, I feel like it's missing some sort of flavor to it. I ended up getting a chicken noodle and rice broth bowl (essentially chicken noodle soup) and I thought it was meh. Since it's Corelife, there needs to be some sort of healthy greens added ...

Countdown

Hey guys, hope you're wrapping up your semesters nicely. This is it Seniors, we're basically a month out to graduation. With so little time left, there's a lot to get done. Portfolios, final projects, papers, AHHH! Granted, my finals schedule is pretty laid back, however, the weeks leading up to finals is literally hell. I'll explain this shortly. Let's get going with this week's blog! A Day in the Windy City On Friday, I went on a day trip to Chicago with AIGA, a graphic design organization. This was a great opportunity for my friends and I to network with real creative directors in the city as well as get a feel for what a design agency is really like. Personally, I feel like I could see myself in a design agency because I like open workspace as well as a fun and creative environment. Also, one of the design agencies we visited does a lot of promotional ads for McDonald's so I thought that was actually neat. However, I can't imagine staring at...

Travel day

Hello all! Hope everyone is recovering well from their spring breaks. We're getting so close to the end of the year. By this time it feels repetitive since this is my fourth year at Bradley. It's always after spring break that the year snowballs and before we know it, the year is over. This time around it will be different for us Seniors because we won't be returning. Depending on how you look at it, this is the light at the end of the tunnel for some. For me, it's a mix of emotions. I'm ready to graduate, but I know I will miss the memories I've made in my shirt time here.  Zoo Day Anyhow, this past weekend was mainly traveling. Friday was my last full day in LA for Spring Break. I spent most of the day at the LA Zoo while looking at exotic animals. I personal favorite was watching a pack of flamingos. Fun fact of the blog: a pack of flamingos is called a flamboyance. Other animals I saw included, chimpanzees, giraffes, and other aquatic animals. Heres m...
