This week was much more productive! I finished the Word templates and am currently putting the finishing touches on the website design. I will have it uploaded to the Google Wave by this Sunday. Shortly after, she will give me feedback on the design. I’ve been having a lot of fun messing with the color […]
Management by walking around (MBWA) is an interesting concept. I have always fancied myself a hands-on worker valuing time behind the desk. But Berkun points out that when in the position of a PM, the best way to enhance communication is to form relationships with those involved. This makes sense as I reflect on my […]
It has been a hectic week… I am a little behind schedule with my project but I remain resilient. No matter what obstacles come before me, I will find a way to make things work. She and I are meeting this weekend so I can show her my progress on the website. She will also […]
I finalized her design for the webpage! She approved it! Next I just have to create the CSS for dreamweaver! I have all of the files needed for imaging. In fact, most of the content will be easy to plug into the final design. I can’t wait for her to see the final website to […]

I also understand how pretentious writing defeats its own purpose by obscuring ideas. I argue that pretension is not necessarily a “temptation of the ego.” Pretension is using affectation to impress […]
This has been a great week! I finished a couple of logo ideas by coming up with solutions with text and my client’s initials. I also designed a letterhead for her to critique. I should hear back from her soon. Next week, I will be starting on the website design! Exciting! I created EPS and […]
Claudia and I made a lot of progress this week. This progress is still rather minute when compared to the scope of the project. For instance, although I have maintained a stable level of completion per weekly deliverable, there are many more deliverables that require my utmost consistency. To date, I have completed all of […]
This week has been a little hectic due to multiple exams and a painting – which I needed to finish before the weekend. In light of this week from hell, I didn’t accomplish as much as I initially planned. However, next week is another opportunity to get ahead once again. Thus far, I completed the first […]
