The new quarter started a couple of weeks ago. My summer quarter was super chill; I only had one class and I didnt like it that much so I didnt give it 100%.
I am super excited for this quarter, but I am gonna be really busy. I am taking Advanced Typography which turns out is a lot of work, I am also having a mentor this quarter that is totally whipping my butt! Before the quarter started I had to come up with the projects I wanted to work with during my mentorship and my mentor had to sign off and get it approved by my school. I decided to do two projects and my mentor told me it would be a lot of work but if I was up for the challenge I should do it. -I was up for it and super excited!
My second meeting with my mentor went well, I felt like I had a lot to show him and he liked what he saw. Then at the end of the meeting he is dropping the bomb….
Mentor “So, is this your last quarter, how is your portfolio coming along?”
Me “Well, I have one more quarter after this and I wasnt gonna concentrate so heavy on the portfolio with you this quarter”
Mentor “Ok, so we are gonna work on your portfolio this quarter as well then, we are gonna have to set up a grid system for it etc, why dont you bring it in nex time so I can have a look at what you already have.”
So I guess I have no choice but to work on my portfolio as well… So yeah, my online portfolio will probably also be updated by the end of this quarter as well.
This is what a typical weeknight between 10pm and 1am looks like at at the Leap/Leogra Casa;
