It looks like all our hard work paid off:

"Oracle has won the University and College Designers Association Award of Excellence and the latest issue will be exhibited in the UCDA 34th Annual Design Competition Show."

So, that's something more to put on my resumé. Amanda, the design editor, really deserves props for getting everything organized at such short notice. Still, they're calling for editors and design staff, so I guess I'll join up once again. And I still have time to produce some decent artwork in time to submit to the issue.

But procrastination still seems very likely. . .

Fall Semester '04 & pics

So I'm back in school for the fall. I've got four classes this semester, and I think I'll be a senior in the Spring. . . finally. I'm so ready to be done with school.

I have new pics that I should have uploaded weeks ago. But better late. . .




Jamaal totalled his car =(


Two weeks ago I have a very eventful weekend. I attended a baby shower for the first time, went to Florida with Jamaal, where I got a nifty new cell phone. ^_^ The next day he totalled his car. His airbag didn't go off, but he's ok.

summer class '04 finale; The Village, Bourne Supremacy

School is finally over for the summer, so I get a month break, right?

Wrong.

This morning I get a call from my good friend Nestor, asking me to take him to get car and then follow him to the auto repair place so he'd have a ride back home. Actually, he called Jamaal, but I had his phone. I also had Jamaal's car, so he couldn't take him. And all this transpires before 7:30 a.m.

Well, at least I got free breakfast out of it.

I saw The Village last night. It was good. Typical M. Night Shyamalan surprise-ending, but the story was very engaging as well, with a very character-driven plot. I'm not gonna give anything away, but the music really made the movie. I mean, they're be all this scary, moody music, and then nothing would happen, which lulls the into a false sense of security, then BAM! something happens. The suspense was great.

Last weekend I saw The Bourne Supremacy. It had an awesome car-chase scene at the end, but the plot wasn't quite fulfilling just, but more so than the first. I anticipate a third installment of the film some time soon.
