sooooo, a needle pulling THREAD!

so all of break i had these great plans of getting SOOOOOOO much work done.
then the week came.... and basically WENT, so fast!
i got a few hours of work done during the week, but basically the majority of the work i've done has been all this week. probably around 35 hours worth of work.
i'm really pleased with where i am right now.
i've finished my second book:






i'm pretty sure that i'm going to cover them in a leather... most likely brown.
and even though i only showed a few pages, every page is filled with an image, as opposed to my first book, so you can image how much work i've DONE!!!!

then i started my second phase, enlarged version of these maps.
it's about six feet high and three feet wide:




i ordered you are here:personal geographies something something.
i'm picking it up tomorrow!!!!
so EXCITED!!!!!
i got another book about mapping as well. so i plan on doing some more research.... read read read..... sew sew sew.

antsy

i've been feeling really antsy lately.
there's so much work i want to be doing.
but i'm too distracted by my computer screen, my keyboard...
and then the knowing and anxiety of eveything that i want to be working on... i can't FOCUS!
i'm thinking of posting an ad on craigslist (about heart monitors and the like)
would anyone respond? what would i even list that under?!

definitely going to work large scale for phase 2,
my first phase in my other portfolio just ended. so i'll be working both on the individual months, and then the "BIG PICTURE" so to speak.
it will be good to work on both a the same time.
or at least i think so.
but if i actually get interest about the heart monitor, i'll start focusing on how i would do that.
can you actually record a heartbeat?
is that a stupid question?
because what if that's all i did. instead of reaching out to some STRANGER ? is this becoming a sound installation now??

i'm not gonna think to much about that now.
i'm going to drop off my piece for the all school SHOW!!!!


everyone else should too!!!
deadline is tomorrow!!!
