I've finished four of my proposed twelve postcards for Photoshop. One-third of the way done! I'm rigorously tracking all the requirements that I've met so far so that I can do the best job possible. I have to use a total of twenty-four different images (I've used nine so far), and then so many layers, masks, text/image effects, and shapes.
I've made really good progress on the images, layers, and text/image effects. The only thing I'm really worried about are the masks and the shapes. Masks give me trouble to begin with (I can never figure out how to use them right) and the last time I had an assignment on shapes, my instructor said I did it wrong. :/ Oh, well. I think my Photoshop final is worth 220 points and while losing a few wouldn't kill me, I really want a solid A in this class. Not an A-, but an A. After getting those damn C's in math, I feel like I have to redeem myself. Grrr.
Communications class is a breeze. So I'm not even worried about that final. Unless I do something really, really wrong or really, really bad, I'm definitely getting an A in that class. :) I've only lost thirteen points in the course of seven and a half weeks, which is fucking fantastic. Almost as good as my first block. I'm really proud of myself. Only a few more months and I'll graduate~ (Assuming I don't hit any road blocks with financial aid... Lisa still hasn't updated me.)
I went out to the cemetery and the waterfront today to take more pictures, so I'm hoping to get cracking on the next four postcards today. At this rate, I can be done by the weekend and then all my focus can go on my Communications final. I'm really excited for these classes to be over (although I'll miss having access to PSCS4) so I can take a week-long break. Winter break just didn't last long enough...
On a final note, to s/he who shall not be named, calm the fuck down. When I add people to my Facebook, I know what I'm doing. And no, I don't rely on privacy settings to keep certain information from certain people because I have nothing to fucking hide from certain people like you do. If I put anything on Facebook, it's because I feel comfortable sharing it. And honestly, where do you get off telling me who I should and shouldn't add? You don't even have Facebook! And if you did, I wouldn't add you.
De... wait for it... nied! :)
Seems like everywhere I go, the more I see, the less I know.
