Graduate work almost done!

Wooooo

I just finished the first draft of my graduate work. 2 years of work, 6 months of typing, 185 pages, god knows how many words, and every illustration done by myself.

I now refuse to scoff at any small writing assignment I'm given. I also refuse to pay for another unit of anything ever again. No more school. Ever. Eeeeeever. 

I imagine my obsessive amount of M|LF posts will slow down now that I'm not being forced to sit and type for hours on end.

I going to get smashed this weekend.

Wooooo

Industrial Design. I've redesigned the bomb detection user interfaces for the nation's airports. big_smile

As for the doctorate, I guess Dr. Design might sound cool, but it also kind'a sounds like a really flamboyant Bravo show... and 8 cumulative years of college have burned me the f*#@ out.

Hey good job. I know much fun wrestling with an 8 page essay is, let alone 185 pages, so congrats on a job well done.

Re: Graduate work almost done!

Oh sadness, I am so jealous of you. I just started four years of professional school, and although it's going by fast, I think I will be completely burned out by year 4.

Re: Graduate work almost done!

I wanted to be an industrial designer for such a long time but when it came time to decide on a major I wimped out and went advertising instead.  I know its a field that you can have a lot of fun in so I'm sure you'll enjoy it up
