So the magazine came out and everyone loves it and has nothing but nice things to say...except the kids in my major. granted, we're studying design here and critique can be helpful, but these kids are downright egotistical and mean sometimes! you are not God's gift to design so spare me, please.
Firstly, nobody else wanted to take on the magazine. I did, and I rather enjoyed designing it, and it DID come out way better than the previous issues, but nobody seems to care or notice. I've gotten little recognition for the amazingly hard work I've done, aside from my higher-ups on the magazine staff. I showed one student in my class the magazine because he asked to see it, and afterward I got no feedback whatsoever. Not a 'that looks good' or even 'this looks like crap'. If you're going to scrutinize it, at least give me some helpful feedback! And if you all hate it so much, then why don't you join in and help instead of me having to do it all by myself.
Am I the only unselfish one in my major? It just can't be...and this is why I was miserable in London..I just don't click with these people and I don't understand why. Now I'm just afraid to let anyone see the magazine because I just assume they'll have something mean to say about it. Great...all this hard work and now I feel like I have to hide it. All I know is, this is going to look fantastic on my resume and I could easily get a job working at a real magazine with this - last year's creative director landed a job with vogue and I believe this issue is much improved.
I finally broke $100 again sunday night at work. The quality of people coming out to eat is seriously plummetting. But, I was recruited by one of them to model for Mary Kay cosmetics. Not sure what its about entirely but i'm going to a 'dinner party' tomorrow night for it. free makeup!
What else...
my best friend's senior vocal recital is coming up next week and I'm accompanying her on oboe. I hope it goes well! we're getting our hurr did and everything.
Anyway, school is a burnout and I can't wait to be finished and move out to sunny LA. I hate this weather!!
and is this girl gorgeous or what...
she's my fantasy lover...

p.s. if you want to see me go pink, please post a comment on my set!! (something more than 'i loved it!' por favor)
