blogger virgin..corrupted

Can you believe i signed up for this site in 2007 and haven't even THOUGHT about posting til recently?! it's kinda crazy.
i'm one of those people that only does things half way. i've tried to be better about it...but lets face it. i am, and probably always will have that slacker lifestyle in me. that's just the way i've always been..well, most of my life. BUT i shouldn't tare myself down on this first day i blog. seriously, since i've been at art school (it's almost been a year now..) i've been on the honor roll every quarter, won a $50 scholarship for a small design competition..art school's kept me on my toes...
oh, btw, i'm sarah. i just turned 21 and i go to the art institute of california --sunnyvale. i'm majoring in web design but love print designing too. i don't know what my plans/goals for this blog are or will be...we'll see as i progress.
i'm currently working on a few projects
-a group project, that's almost complete. we were given information to make into an visually appealing timeline. (seriously? isn't that like, an oxymoron??) anyway, our group (Team A or Team #1) is competition with team LOSER as i call them..haha (team B). The facts are on the growing obesity trends in adults in america. we had no design concept until this past week when i came up with the brilliant idea of making the timeline look like a drive thru fast food menu. GENIUS RIGHT?! i'm not in charge of the design (kind of??) but i was glad my brainstorming idea was a good one. :) we're meeting tomorrow morning to put the presentation together..i'm excited. i don't like to lose. i'm a big, fat, SORE loser...so i'm going to make sure to not lose this thing.
-for film class my teacher wants us to get a personal/professional portfolio site up and running within the next couple weeks. it's been stressful but i just need to put something together already. my ideas are too big for the beginning stages i'm stuck in at the moment. we also have to come up with an idea for a video submission to this art show that will be hosted at our school coming up in march. i haven't thought about it too much. it's on urban life. i've lived in sunnyvale, CA my whole life. the epitome of suburban life..silicon valley...BLAHNESS. i'll have to think about this all a lot more.
those are my two HUGE projects going on at the moment. i feel bad cuz i told a friend i'd get a background made for his video broadcast page, like, TWO weeks ago now?? it's totally been a second thought to all this school work going on..but i want to make it fantastic since it's taken me so long. we'll see what i come up with.
i'll be sure to post some of my design stuff up soon...i don't know how it'll work out...but we'll just have to wait and see...
until next time...
consider this blogger cherry --POPPED. in a big way. HAHAHAHA!! ;)
