Heat Wave

In the midst of finals right now. If you're one of those that think finals for design school should be a piece of cake ("you just draw some stuff, right?"), you are dead wrong. I'll let you measure the bags under my eyes as proof. And to be in the thick of thesis research, scheduling, following up, driving from school to school and interviewing teachers... All of this is pretty exhausting and quite a challenge to pull off when you also have to account for a part-time design job AND being in the process of moving to a new place.

I say all this not to get sympathy, but to set up my main point: Being able to sit down with teachers during their prep time to talk about their classroom, and seeing their face light up when talking about education and children, makes it all worth the stress and the downs I've encountered.
