Tuesday's Font Design was cool. I had to take off early because I had to go to court. Back in November I got a ticket for crossing over the double yellow lines to go into the carpool lane which is some bs. Oh yeah and since I got the ticket in Whittier I had to drive way out there. Anyways on top of that I also had a failure to appear because the "courtesy" notice never came to me. So off to court I go. I pled not guilty to both charges. The judge dropped the failure to appear since I showed that the notice I did get once they were ready to put a warrant out on me, since it showed the incorrect address. It's funny that the first notice couldn't find it's way to me but the final once did. WTF! That took care of going before the judge. The judicial system sucks! Why do I need to post bail aka pay my fine if I am taking my ticket to trial. I should only have to pay if they find me guilty. I think this will be a great topic for Information Design this term. Since I was sans money I have to go back within 3 weeks to pay the bail. After court I went for a victory burrito at the taco spot.
On the heels of victory I woke up early on Wednesday so that I could go to school and work on my Information Design and Business 101 homework. I needed to take 15 photos from home to the classroom for Info. So I took some photos till I got to the cafeteria where I made a pit stop for some grub. After eating and finishing up my Business 101 hw I continued my way through school taking pics until I reached the classroom. That only took about 5 minutes before I was back in the cafeteria laying out the photos so that I could print them out. Class didn't start till 3 so I was making perfect time. After a short trip to the computer lab to print I was off to class. This class is pretty chill not like normal classes at least in how its structured. Today's exercise in class was in ways of organizing information. We laid out our prints on the floor in different ways.
After editorial was Bus101. Class so far has been really enjoyable. Not boring at all. Check out these awesome animation stills from Erol's presentations.
After class I went home and relaxed before going to pick up Cristina. She was coming up to LA because in the morning she was going to be flying out of LAX to go to Europe. I picked her up from the Greyhound station.
Thursday morning I woke up early so that I could go to school for the AIGA meeting. When I went into the kitchen I found Cristina cleaning the kitchen. Awesome! After the AIGA meeting I went to try to talk to Leah about my sketches for Font Design. Unfortunately I wasn't able to see her since I had to take Cristina to the airport.
After the airport it was back to the house to take a nap. After walking up I got to work on editorial.
Somewhere in South Central.
On Friday I woke up early to finish up my editorial homework. Class went well and I kinda have a direction to go in. This class is going to be really self motivated and I am going to have to rely on criticism from my classmates.
Friday after class I went to pick up Miguel from work. Afterwards we came back to the house to drink some beers. When we were at the supermarket I saw Maura walking out and we stopped and talk for a sec. I invited her over to hang out. She came over with some instruments and we drank and played into the night.
Saturday was nice and relaxing. I didn't do much just chilled and watched some tv and movies. At night I did my info homework. I needed to find 100 objects of trash that were the same and organize them in some way. I had started a bottle cap collection some time ago in anticipation of this exercise. I was surprised at how little of the collection I needed. The glass jar that holds them was pretty much full after I took 100 caps out.
Sunday was more relaxing and not doing homework. Have to enjoy the little amount of work I currently have, it won't last long.
