Graduation!

I did it! It's over! I've officially graduated with my Master of Science in Information Design and Communication. The Commencement Exercises were last weekend and I had an absolute blast. Not only did my Grandmother come from Phoenix, and my Aunt from Buffalo, but Breena and Dan came down from North Carolina to celebrate. It was a busy weekend filled with family and amazing friends, and I couldn't have asked for more. Here are some pictures:


I'll be going through photos over the next couple days and will be sure to post more!

Graduation Countdown!

Well, my last summer semester is over, and I'm so thankful! The summer sessions are really intense, and this one was particularly difficult. I'm registered for the fall and have just four classes to complete before graduation in the spring. I can't wait to graduate, get my Master's degree, and have my life back!

So, I have to ask - what should I do to celebrate graduation next May? Let me know what you think in the comments section!

Earning My Master's Degree

So, I think most people know this by now, but if you didn't: I'm in graduate school! I've been pursuing my Master of Science in Information Design & Communication at Southern Polytechnic State University since the Spring of 2009 and slowly, steadily making my way toward graduation!

I think that the best way to keep y'all abreast of how I'm doing with this item on my list is to provide brief summaries of my classes (for those who are interested) and maybe post one or two of my favorite projects from each (if there are any!).

Here's a list of the classes I've taken (or am currently taking) so far:

• IDC 6001: Technical Writing and Editing (Spring 2009)
• IDC 6030: Foundations of Graphics (Spring 2009)
• IDC 6010: Writing Across Media (Summer 2009)
• IDC 6002: Information Design (Fall 2009)
