So, I've had the most incredible day so far! Let me share with you....

This morning, unfortunately, I woke up at 8:06 for my 8:00 a.m. class. I weighed my opportunity cost and decided agaist walking in 20 or 30 minutes late. I had a lot of stuff to catch up on so I figured I would utilize my extra couple of hours. After lollygagging for awhile, getting ready, etc. I rented out a digital camera from the library for a project I am working on in my Digital Imaging class. (The one I missed this morning.) Hey, it totally counts that I worked out my project outside of class right??? Anyway...

For my project I am photoshopping three posters that represent a surreal story, anything I want to portray. My idea started with a "candy-land" theme and has morphed into this hilariuos juxtaposition of showing "candy-people" do various everyday activities. I.E. A candy person sitting in a dentist chair is going to be one of my posters. So for my out of class work this morning I stopped by a dentist office in Menomonie to see if they would let me take a picture of one of their dentist rooms.

Amazingly enough, the owner (?) upon realizing that I am an art student at Stout asked if I'd like to design a Smile Book for their office. He is looking for something more interesting than the simple before/after smile pictures and is paying me to design such a book! I was absolutely ecstatic!

I think it may have made up for the disappointment of missing class this morning.....maybe?
