Trying to be prepared for class and so decided to check out the padlet page for the studio this term.  It's a beautiful spring day here in Dartmouth and I'm starting to wonder if my selection of Sunday midday for the class was the wisest :)

This is an image from a midterm presentation for ADST300... it was 1130pm and Carson (my youngest of three boys, 7 years old) couldn't sleep bc he was so excited to see everyone's design work. For this term's final (ADST 350) he pooped on the floor behind me while I presented :/ Life is funny sometimes...
