Journal 03


First, I'd like to comment on the first blog I looked at Courtney S'. She mentions being an English major and right from the start of reading her posts I could definitely tell. I think she had some great insight on the class so far and I really liked the patterns she picked because I found them to be really creative. I especially liked the beanbag chair and how crazy the colors were splattered all over it http://timefordesign.tumblr.com/. I’m in the same boat as Courtney because I also want to double major, one of which in design. I too am applying to the design major next December. Hopefully she'll be chosen for the major since she mentioned having an interest in interior design since she was little.
           

Next I looked at Rebecca S' posts. I also love yoga and have an older sibling that graduated from here. I thought the patterns she chose were original and really interesting. I especially liked the metal grate, stairs, and grapefruit patterns http://bbeaulieu11.blogspot.com/. In her course reflection she mentions how much she liked learning about the evolution of chairs, which I also enjoyed. It was really cool to see how many of them were right here on campus.


Lastly, I read Kristian B's blog.  I think it’s very courageous to attend a college in another country and would be an interesting experience. I think it's pretty cool Kristian grew up fencing and has stuck with it all his life. The opportunity to travel internationally doing something you've been doing for such a long time has to be pretty rewarding. I wish I had the opportunity to be in design classes throughout my primary and secondary schooling like he did. I agree with his statement that design is a very important topic in our lives and if it weren’t many of us probably would not be in this class http://kboy123.blogspot.com/.
