Stressing!

Things that I have accomplished:

-Time is closing in and things are compressed in a tight area. School is ending and I feel stressed about my english test, because I am tottering on a c and a d, and I kinda want to keep my C.

-I sent in my leave request form.

-Worked on my owl and decided a different route that i will finish tomorrow.

-study!!!

Radiohead

things that I have accomplished:

-Well it truly looks like I have accomplished nothing at all. In reality I really have not accomplished anything. My mind is being overrun with ideas and concepts that are great ideas and in my mind look great but its just settling on the idea 1st. I have a idea of what I really want my piece to look like, I just dont know where to start.

These pieces are sorta what I want to accomplish, or have my work look like.

-I studied english for the last 30 minutes of class.

last ACC day.

Things that I have accomplished:

-I printed a couple more pictures that I was debating about printing or not. I put all my work in the clear covers. I am pretty sure I have 20 pictures showing my work. On two pieces of paper there is about 9 that  I printed towards the end of the 1st semester that should count.

-I already have my guest blog up so the only thing that I really need to do is print my resumes and such. Which Im pretty sure later today I go to Acc, so I can get it then. I got them printed out and everything. I had to rearrange my things a bit but I got them all looking wonderful.

-worked on a piece that I I’m doing not only to maybe hang up but something my sister would like. :).. But who knows. She wanted something alittle on the dark side… or incorporating skulls, cause she loves skulls.. But I am actually at this moment getting a wave of cool ideas involving skulls, but on a lighter happier side. :O

-I work on english……..I feel l like life is going crazy. :0

Tuesday – In Tulsa

This was the awards ceremony day. I did doze off, knowing that I wouldn’t place,and got a small nap in. Garrett and Cody both placed 3rd in their categories. I am so happy for them. ^_^ but we headed back this day too, which i was happy to get back being that I was so tired, and off part of my sanity horse.

Monday – In Tulsa

This was the day that the competition first started. There was a lot of waiting around. The competition was 4 hours straight with both the residential and commercial done together. The commercial wiring was simple, and the residential was more complex. I wish I would have listened to my gut and did the conduit first and then went back to the residential. But I am just happy I got through it.

Monday

This weekend I went to Altus to work on the RBC (Regional Building Committee). I work on the Cornice crew and helped put cornice on. Hall builds are very refreshing because everyone that comes is so happy to be their, you have young, old, male, and females helping and you are giving up your time without pay or anything, but they feed you some pretty good meals. I posted a picture of when we were putting the truces on. Though I am on the Cornice crew I hope to be switching soon to be on the Electrical Crew. (:

-Sent in my Leave Request Form for Monday and Tuesday.

Tracing an imported image: The Tracing feature allows you to automatically convert pixel-based imagery into vector-based art work. You can’t rely on this feature being that it does not create automatic artwork. Being that I did not download his files, I created my own alphabet in photoshop and then placed it into illustrator. This was a simple lesson in which my file that was placed inside the application, was then live traced by pressing ‘Live Trace” and then bam you are done. Its converted it into a live trace options, and not only that it converts your file also into black-and-white. You may have a file in which you have what ever it is is yellow, and it doesnt trace. That is because yellow is closer to white that any other color. You can adjust that by adjusting the threshold to about 200.
