La Fin

Can't believe this class came to an end.

Had a great time and it was amongst one of those classes where I gained so much. I now have a new appreciation for books. I view them differently and its all thanks to Reg, not that I want to brag about it, but its true. You were a great professor, informative and very open to ideas. Also, the books you brought in were very helpful as well so I thank you.

Lastly, I want to thank all my classmates. We all integrated pretty well together and it was fun to see everyone's progress week by week. The blog definitely helped. I had fun spying on everyones work *evil laugh*.


Hope everyone has a great summer. See you in grad show :)

P.S I think I'm going to bind all my process work from now on!

***

I broke two needles.

Stuck with signatures!

I am 99% done my book. A little tweaking is still needed, but its no biggie!

Before printing my work, I thought I set my file in signatures but now that Im trying to arrange it, its not turning out the way I want it too... the signatures that is. I dont know what I am doing wrong and its getting a little stressful!! Hopefully I'll get it sorted it by tomorrow.

I also thought of having it bind by a professional but thats not happening anymore mainly because he needed the prints by last Monday and obviously I am too late. Sooo..I am doing the binding myself.


Hope to see everyone tomorrow!!

Heres my title page! I might change it...

where am I?

I am in the labs working away on my book. I was thinking of staying home today but then I thought it'd be wise to do something productive with my day.

I am around 50% done. I'm at a stage of editing old photos and drawing stuff. Still unsure about what sort of binding I should go with...which is a bad thing! I wish I could do this with a partner, mainly because I could then bounce ideas around with someone.

So yeh, this is pretty much at what stage I am in.
