summer is coming

This is the project I am currently working on for my graphic design class.  This composition is actually scaled at 15"x15", and my next step is to cut it up into smaller pieces and from that design a cd cover and booklet for a mix cd.  The imagery, compositions, songs, and theme were compiled before we were told what the project would be in the end.  It's been a neat process so far.

Last night we had the last opening in the gallery for this year...it was the twelfth one since August!  The show went so well.  I have pictures to post in a later entry.  The classes that put this show together did such a good job.  It feels good to be done, but sad too.  Besides cleaning things up, there will be no more gallery work until August.  The summer is coming on quickly and at times, I feel a little overwhelmed when I think that my internship is going to start in just a few weeks!  I'm not looking forward to finals week and moving out, but really, who ever is?  I'm excited about the internship, but of course, the unknown is always a little scary, and entering into a new workspace always brings on a little doubt.  I know that once everything is in place and I have a few days of training, it will all be fine, however.  I'm also trying to factor in if I'll have enough time and energy for a small summer job...and if I do, will I be able to find one?  I have a few places in mind to apply, and at the top of my list, is working behind a photo-processing counter.  Yes, I would really like to do that...learning the equipment involved and getting to process other people's photographs sounds like so much fun to me, and is at least a little related to my field of study...we'll see if that works out!

That does sound entertaining. I may hire you this summer to come photograph our family...how does that sound?
