i need to blog this out loud before i go crazy

1st PROJECT + CRIT this TUESDAY! basically we have to create a design vision for this obsolete gigantic coaling pier that's too expense to remove yet quite a waste to be left standing.

Pretty fugly isnt it. The exercise was meant to be purely experimental and "outside the box "where economic realities can simply be disregarded. Since the site itself looks pretty theatrical, my design vision for this is to build a theatre stage! pretty fancy i know. there are a handful of architects and landscape architects in the program, so they are pretty well weathered and got tons of graphic design tools at their disposal. so a person like myself ended up photoshopping pictures all day today. BUT i don't think this is a disadvantage at all since photoshop can generate much more imaginative capacity. It's fun when you don't have to care about real-world constraints which you would seriously need to heed in, well, the real world. The assignment was given out almost *TWO WEEKS* ago and why did i not start until *TWO DAYS* ago?!

I just want this to be over with, so I can start unpacking, buying cooking utenstils&groceries, and decorating my room like a proper grad student! ugh.. long way.
