I had my first class tonight, a studio class. I didn't know what to expect. The whole semester will be devoted to working with a single client,
The Cleveland Sight Center. We won't be designing a logo or a website or any sort of visual concept, we will be helping to institute a system with the function of attracting 25 organizations in North-East Ohio willing to employ people who are blind or visually impaired. Work that is unfamiliar territory and that will have a major impact on many people's lives. I am very intimidated, and that's not a casual statement (my first day and I am wondering if I am in over my head). I don't think I have much to bring to the table; but I will work hard and do what I think is right; so if I am not successful or popular at least I will be respected.
On a lighter note, the town of Kent is an awesome place with lots of trees. Too bad I can only enjoy them for a few more weeks. Also, today I had my first visit from back home!

Nice little spot in the middle of town where I spent about five hours reading today. |

A.k.a., The Slinky Book. Required reading for my studio class, just finished today (three more to go). |

The Grapevine-LLama-Flower-Couch Center of Kent. Seriously, your guess is as good as mine. |
