End of Semester: Spring 2007

This has been an eventful semester for me, both academically and personally. Now that things are coming down to the last few days and I have only one more exam to take, I am beginning to freak out a little bit and things are getting stressful. The most active thing on my mind at the […]

Behind in Ceramics

I have thrown many pieces, including my sculptures, but I am back to my same fear from last semester, I am missing something or something will not go right. My sculptures are all done but one, but because of their size, I am now worried that I won’t have time to get them fired and […]

Potter Going Crazy

It is 0330, I should be asleep right now, but as much as a try, I can’t fall asleep, all of these thoughts are converging on my tiny brain at once. With such a short time remaining (14 days) it is becoming more of a challenge to keep these thoughts under control. I am going […]

A Sign of Relief in Ceramics

Tweedy has done something that she has never been known to do in the recent history of the studio, she moved a deadline. Being a few projects away from being done, I am glad that I now have closer to 20 days to get finished instead of the 7 previously. Task Old Deadline New Deadline […]

Ceramics: The Final Frontier

Today I embarked on one of my last truly “new” objectives in ceramics, sculpture. Part of the ceramics curriculum for this semester is wheel thrown sculptural forms. I have never done anything for the sake of sculpture, I have always done functional forms. The assignment is a series of 6 serial sculptures, of at least […]

New Semester Going Well

The Spring 2007 semester is now about 3 weeks old, and things seem to be going well. I am ahead of schedule in all of my classes and I’ve had a lot less absences than previous semesters. I am feeling very energetic and productive so far. I have a goal for this semester, to have […]

An Engineering Course for Non-Majors

Welll… after some digging, I did find a course in the engineering field that will allow non-majors to enroll, unfortunately, it isn’t that practicle. The course is “Design of Intelligent Spacecraft” (ECGR3090, section W01 for those who want to register), it is technically “special topics”, so the provost doesn’t have a course description for it, […]

Why can I not take Thermodynamics?

I was just glancing through the availible courses for the Spring semester at UNCC, trying to perhaps round out my schedule with something substancial, but all of the fun courses are closed to non-majors or require weird types of pre-requisits. I want to take Intro to Mechanical Enginerring, Thermodynamics I, Fluid Mechanics or something along […]

4 Shelves, Now 1 Table

I have now condensed my work from being 4 shelves in the glaze room to now being 1 table in the glaze room. How am I ever going to get all of this stuff home? [pic coming soon]
