School Time and the DMC
or How the Summer Ended Unexpectedly.

Back at it. Over the summer the Option 1 Studio at Rice University was to compile a portfolio made up of the previous year's work. So the day before class started, most of us began. The mad dash to print and fold our 11x17s, reminded me of the beginning of last year.

-introduction to 95 degrees and 100% humidity
-a one month delay of all our possessions (there are five "s"s in "possessions")
-aside from an education in architecture, an intense immersion course in student loans (barely passed).
-a hurricane
-moving to the 2nd biggest state and the 4th biggest city

Thinking back on these helped me realize how easy this year's transition has been.
Being back has been great and I got a job at the Digital Media Center on campus. My job is to help people edit videos and use the adobe creative suite, so it's mostly just fun.
