October 25 Class

This class shaped up to be one of the best in my opinion. It dealt with real world issues that I personally can relate to as well as others could I'm sure. Don't get me wrong I love going to Beth's class but sometimes the topics tend to get so far out there that the real world seems to be the fake and not our specific topic of discussion.
Being in the same shoes as my fellow classmate, in the regard of being skeptical of showing my work at times, I really gained a lot just by hearing everyones input. I never have really been concerned of what people thought of the preliminary stages of the project at hand but when it comes to the final product, I like most am quite sensitive. Its nice to hear that I am by far not the only one somewhat struggling with this issue.
I love what I am doing in school and starting to do in the real world. Almost without a doubt, one of the biggest issues that has been on my mind is the infamous portfolio. What to put in it, how to go about making it, and so on. The list literally runs on forever the more I think about it. After touching on some of the topics in class it was really nice to hear what is best to put in and honestly how the majority of employers view it; just as you dress it! After putting a little more thought into the topic post-class, this oh so cloudy image of a portfolio started to become much more clear and the idea has slowly been developing since class yesterday. Honestly I certainly hope that we have a lot more classes like this previous one. It, for me, gets the juices flowing the best and well once they get to going watch out! I am absolutely blown away by how this creative thought train, which I use to ride all the time in high school and my freshman year at IUPUI, has built up more steam than it ever had before. Needless to say thanks Beth for the kickass class!
