Something New.

Another August weekend gone. I am not having much summer fun this summer because I decided that it was a great time to work on my thesis. Now, summer in the Pacific NW has been a little lame until the last two weeks..this is also the exact time that working on my thesis became a little lame.Weird.
I haven't written about my thesis on here yet, even though it's the largest part of my life right now; so why don't I say something. I am designing a natural pregnancy and birthing center. I have been passionate about birth for a very long time and have often considered becoming a midwife, so I decided to join design and birth.
Can I talk a little about what I am feeling anxious about now? Sometimes when you work on a project for so long (7 months), you get to this point near the end where you second guess all the decisions you made. You start thinking about all the other directions it could have gone and in this fantasy you think those would probably have been much better. I am there now, I would rather be floating the river.
I also decided to hand render my drawings... Dun dun dun. I am no skilled hand renderer. I know what I am doing on a computer and feel very confident with digital renderings, however doing it by hand freaks me out. BUT my concept is watercolor...and so I thought it best that I try it by hand. This is exactly when that Ira Glass quote becomes handy.
