Dear Wad...

I am currently writing this blog to receive full credit on my Intro to Journalism blog grade. So here it is.
To add a little bit of interest to this blog I will talk about my final project that I am doing.
I am doing a project about redheads. It will be a magazine spread all about them. Currently I am trying to make an awesome design with a photoshoped/photo illustration picture and use text wrap, brushes, and graphics to make it look beautiful.
Considering I'm not the designer type person, this will be interesting.
Well there you go Wad!

but yet...

Here's some deja vu for all my followers.
IT'S DEADLINE WEEK! (YET AGAIN)
And this deadline is the same as they are all but yet different
It's a lot of work but yet it's not
Everything is unorganized but yet it is
Everything is unfinished but yet many things are finished
There is virtually no design to check but yet there is alignment to check

but yet in the end, the one thing that gets me through the stress is McDonald's Diet Coke provided to me by the very generous Allison (oh yeah, someone remind me to pay her back...oops)

Deadline week is stressful but yet...........actually there is no "but yet" in this case because it's stressful no matter what.

Good Ole' Room S110

So I'm trying to fix the proofs for Deadline 1 and I can't...
Why you may ask?
InDesing on computer 29 (my wonderful editor computer) will not open.
It quits every time...
How am I supposed to create a 320 page yearbook without InDesign on my computer.
Guess I'll have to steal someone elses computer.


oh well!

In the Spirit of Valentines Day

So yeah I'm a nerd. Yesterday was Valentines Day so my friend Sidney, Marko, and I decided to make valentine baskets for our staff and we had to make actual valentines to go inside the baskets. So in spirit of publications and valentines day I decided to find journalism ones...and oh boy did I find them....

Wady Photo's Intro Assignment

The poles and medicine balls for Girls Track lay out in the sports conditioning equipment room. The track team went 62-0 for their record this past year.

Matt (10) poses for the camera as he checks what he needs for his photo project in Intro to Journalism. Matt had to go on a photo scavenger hunt in which he had to go around the school to find various elements to take pictures of.

Sidney (12) poses as she helps the intro to journalism students take pictures for their photo scavenger hunt. Sidney doesn't actually belong in Intro to Journalism class, she aides for Mrs. Samples during eighth hour.

CANNOt WAit

In exactly one week from now I will be relaxing with my friends in Minneapolis for the national journalism convention. I CANNOT WAIT. The best part is that we will be hitting up the mall of america. I know, it's amazing. It will be my first time there and it will be EPIC.

look at your life look at your choices

So right now I'm at a state convention for journalism for one night. I forgot pants.
Yeah you heard me, I left my jeans in the dryer. I even wrote a note for myself to remember my jeans and I didn't even read it. Wow. I know I look stupid; and on top of that I forgot a toothbrush.
Okay, I know I look really unorganized but I have never forgotten anything for a trip before.
As the late Cesar would say, look at your life, look at your choices.
