week 2
is officially over. friday afternoon, and i just walked home in the deceivingly chilly sunshine. now for project weekend: i have hundreds of pages to read, eaters to interview and observe, research areas to explore, a cs course to catch up on before i teach it, freshers welcome to sing for, a team to 'launch', a birthday party to attend, groceries to shop for, an aunt to visit, the gym to go to, and those are just the things that come to mind at first thought. for a second, i wanted the weekend to be over already, before i realized the horror that awaits right after.
my d.school project this week is on rapid eating and sustainability, and how the two can possibly be combined. the observation phase is this weekend, when we go out into the world and study individuals' consumption patterns, and get to know the user audience. the question i like to ask most is "what does sustainability mean to you?" because it gets me a fascinating response each time. sustainability, for me, is not my work schedule. that is not sustainable. i feel like i'm in one of those crowded trains with no breating space and no way to get out before i get to my original destination, in this case - end of quarter.
after all that complaining, i sheepishly admit that i did have time today to indulge in some photo-taking. mostly in interview pictures, but also of campus in general. as i wrote earlier, the campus is beautiful enough that there is much to photograph no matter which section of campus i'm in. photos on smugmug.
on to project weekend.
