New Beginnings

January 31, 2009

What a bittersweet feeling. My landlord called me to inform me that this Monday he will be showing my apartment. I know I still have a few more months of being a student/living the boulder life, but his call really made me think about the future. I stayed this extra year so that I could do the BFA and get my life in order before graduation, and I feel like I am exactly where I was at this time last year. I need to start looking for a job, and I need to also start deciding on a living situation for summer. But at the same time I want to just take the next few months and be lazy… because this will probably be one of the last times in my life where I don’t have a 9 to five work day and real priorities to deal with.

 

I still have priorities I suppose, but ones that I am actually excited about. I finally feel like I know what I am going to do for my BFA show-, which is exciting. There is a big group this year- about 19 students, so space will be much more limited then last semester. I am trying to see this as a positive thing. I think with more people the show will be that much more great! Because I don’t have unlimited space I am going to work on a series of small prints (10 x11)…. This way I can enter several. My proposal will be for 9 prints, which will be displayed in three rows.

 

I just dropped my geography class, so I am only in nine credits at the moment… which I love! I have my BFA seminar and my two print classes. This semester is going to be about me….because it’s starting to hit me that it will be my last one ever.
