Hey!
Well its another beautiful day here in Syracuse! I love this weather! Its been in the 70s or 80s ever since I got here and very sunny! Its a complete contrast to whats in store for the winter so every ones enjoying it while its here! There are always people hanging out on the Quad these days, playing Frisbee, tanning, or just chilling out. Its a beautiful spot to sit and you're bound to see people you know walking by. Not much else is new here at Syracuse. We critiqued the project I've been working on in class lately. The professor mainly stressed composition in the critique as well as presentation design. The critique went really well actually, the interior design professor seems to be really skilled at walking that fine line of critiquing your work to improve your skill, but not making you feel inadequate at the same time. The constant use of critiques as a learning and improvement tool is one aspect of college that was very different from my high school experience. However, the more I practice them the more I learn and expand as an artist, even though sometimes they may be a slightly intimidating experience.

Well I hope you all are doing well and your college search or decision is going smoothly! Until next time!
