Alright. Here are my projects thus far this semester. It has been a little wild and exhausting. This class, Interior design, and Mechanical Systems take up 75% if not more of my time. They are full of research, project submittals, project re-submittals, harsh critiques, loss of money and sleep...etc. Apparition Aisle wasn't too bad, but this Kitchen was another story. Let me quickly explain some of the experiences I had with it. Jessica and Beau were my clients. I know that this doesn't exactly have Beau and Jessica written all over it, but my teacher pretty much told me that the clients I chose were boring (he tells me I am boring all the time though, so... it's not just the Englands) Anyway, so I decided that it should have some influences of Pop Art (which my teacher said there was not enough of). I stayed up till 3 about every night this week working on this thing and another Mechanical Systems project that was due this week. I flubbed on a lighting presentation because I was working on this project - embarrassing. Then, I did not sleep Wednesday or Thursday night, but stayed at school for this. YES that is 48hrs of no sleep - you should try it some time. I watched 6 girls cry because they were doing the same thing as me. Then I cried because the computer was slow and I needed to work faster. I paid $150 to have these boards printed and just about shot myself for thinking printing at Kinkos might be better than printing at the school where it would have been about $45 to print. Never again. Then I presented for about 15 minutes, took my boards down. Went home Friday at 5:30 and hit the sack. I woke up this morning at 3 because my sleeping schedule is messed now. I am doing good though, and I will cry happy tears when this semester is over. (oh and my legs are finally not hairy and I am going to have a mani/pedi today.)

I absolutely love this kitchen! When I get some $$ be by your phone cuz I am going to call you to make my house beautiful! :)
Good job lydia lou! I love it and I decided I will pretend you are designing all of your projects for Beau and me:) Love you and get some sleep!!!!!!
What a stinking nightmare to have to do this. I feel for you girl, and can understand why blogging has been on the back burner for you. Just know some teachers you can never please, or you might not mesh with. That is okay. You still do a great job and are very creative. One thing that might help is to observe the type of style the teacher seems to have, and maybe try to incorporate some of it in the next project in your own way. I have a feeling he is very picky.
Linda you are amazing and talented, and amazingly talented. Keep up the good work. You can come back and brag to your professor when you're making Gs designing for vegas millionaires. We missed you on Sunday night. we must play soon, maybe at a pumpkin patch because I want to go.
you are amazing!!!!
