I can't believe this quarter is already pretty much half over. That stresses me more than anything. Especially since I'll be missing an entire week of class next week. Luckily the only thing due is the CSS Zen Garden design which I just need to post to my site and not actually be present in class to turn in. I had planned on coming to at least the first part of the class but the schedule with airlines and getting a ticket that will get me where i need to be on-time is not cooperating in the slightest. Argh. Oh well.
I'll be honest that I haven't done much so far on this assignment. As busy as I've been b/n class assignments, working, and going kayaking this weekend (so much fun but man do I hurt!) i haven't been doing the best with time management. I'm definitely reaching the crunch time to get my butt into gear. But typically it's when I reach crunch time that I start to churn out the best ideas. I've always validated my procrastination by saying that it helps me come up with the best ideas. I've started getting a few flashes of ideas and color schemes that I'm liking. Sometimes I wish someone would give me just ONE element to work off of. Even if someone were to say 'ok make your main color theme purple!'
It's never been the technical side that scares me, just the actual design. Which is completely ironic considering when I was finishing up my computer science major I never wanted to fuss with the technical side I wanted to do design and make things pretty! But in all honesty anything I would've done would've been great since I was the only artistically inclined one. Here everyone is so artistically inclined I think I'm just incredibly threatened because this used to be the area that I shined in. I guess it's the whole big fish little pond becomes little fish in big artsy fartsy pond! So I think that's why I'm starting to crave the technical side again because I feel like I have a slight edge since I understand code set up and algorithmic design, object oriented programming, and everything else.
The grass is always greener right?
I think I just need to stop being so lazy.
