Lots of work

First of all, I would like to let out my relief of getting my first grades in VisCom today! I got two A-'s, which is on the higher end of grades in the class. I don't think anyone received an A either.

So I started working on my axonometric for VisCom (the temple is called "Temple of Portunus"). Basically, an axonometric drawing is a perspective with no vanishing points. The 90 degree angles are kept at 90 degrees and almost all lengths are kept proportional to the original. Here's an example:

And here's a picture of the Temple of Portunus:

The stairs on the temple were difficult to do, but after a couple tries I managed to get them right. That's as far as I got tonight because there was a house meeting.

The meeting pretty much told the residents in special living for arts and architecture that each person had to to at least two things whether they be volunteer work, attending social events, etc. Since I already participated in a tie-dyeing event as well as donating blood, I already have all the credits I need for this semester.
