MATC Chicago Trip ’08

Group of Visual Communications Students in front of the metal bean in Chicago

This past thursday was the annual MATC Art Club trip to Chicago. In general the Graphic Design students go, but these past 2 years Emmalee has gotten a group of Visual Communications students to come along.

This is my third year going on this trip, my first was while I was still in the Graphic Design program, and must have been in Fall ’03. And now ’07, and ’08. This year ended up being the least time spent in The Art Institute of Chicago Museum. At one point while walking around we saw a poster advertising the Field Museum and an exhibit of mythical creatures. When Emmalee saw that she went nuts and decided we should check it out. The day was half over at this point, so most of the rest was used there. Partly looking for Issac, but I won’t get into that.

Speaking of looking for someone, I was the doofus who made the busses late to leave this year. The past 2 years they loaded and unloaded in the same spot, this year they had to load in a different spot and I did not catch the notice. I went to where the map said and previous years had gone. I felt so stupid.

All in all it was a good trip though!

Cedar Point…

Tim: What are you doing the next 3 days?
Me: Uh nothing…
Tim: Want to go to Ohio?

So off I go… I am quickly making this post as I get ready to head over to Tim’s so I can leave in the morning with him and his brother for Cedar Point.

Cedar Point = Roller Coasters = Fear for OwlBoy.

But I am going anyway.

I have no money, so Tim is KINDLY paying for me, with me paying him back once I can.

I have so many nice friends. Even if I say I have no friends at all 🙂

Ok, have to go. I will have pics when I get back on… Friday.

Ohh This is post number 100! Deleted or not, I have made 100 entries on this site!
