What happens when you give a design student an assignment to blog their thoughts on the industry and world of design? Luckily for us, we will not have to hypothesize on this question for long. We are about to find out. Over the next 10 weeks I will be exploring the world of design, from an experts point of view apparently (which I find to be an amusing notion). And lucky you, anonymous reader. You just won a first class, all expenses paid trip into my mind.
What is going on in there anyways? Well self, I'm glad you asked.
My first thought is that it must be a fundamental necessity in the school curriculum for teachers to challenge their students with the impossible task of thinking for themselves. And then, after having thought, we are expected to share our thoughts.
Go ahead, stand up and look your classmates in their glazed over, uninterested and generally unsupportive eyes and tell them what you really think about design.
This seems like a sufficient task in and of itself, does it not?
Well, unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your view point, because without this next fact you would not be reading this at all), it is the nature of my program to go above and beyond the customary challenges of college and to force us, its students, as far out onto the ledge of our comfort zones as is currently deemed legal by the government of Canada. In this case, giving me a direct shove out into the spiders web that is the Internet. So...
So, what are you waiting for?Go ahead, sit down and look your monitor in the web cam, get your typing fingers ready, and tell them. Tell the world what you really think about design.
Possible Answers:

b) an invitation worth more than 30 percent of my grade
c) as any other stereotypical tortured artist type, inspiration
Indecisive as always, Nicole
