Board for 434 Midterm. The requirements turned out to be a lot less than I expected. I was all geared up to do some exploded axons... I still might just to do the building right. It's amazing the little corners and reveals you find when modeling a building off of tiny drawings and pictures. You think you have the organization figured out, then go to add a piece that suddenly deviates from everything and you realize your assumptions about the organization is all wrong. But, it's pretty close!

Happy 100 years Arizona! AZ's B Day is by far the best part of St. Valentines Day, and today its even more special as Arizona turns 100 years old. Wish I could be there for it. Few people here in Chicago understand my love for my state, but I just tell them to come and let me show them around and they will fall in love too. I know we have a LOT of problems, but hey, who doesn't, right? And the possibilities and inherent diversity and greatness already there far outweigh them. So, to the 5 C's, the mighty Saguaro, and the Grand Canyon, happy 100!

I have heard Elliott is really wrapping up pretty soon. I went up there during winter break and everything looked amazing, with just a few things (oh, just an electrically-actuated moving dining/coffee table) to be buttoned-up. Congratulations to everyone that worked on the project, to Merlin for staying sane(ish), to Wendell and Tommy for the vision, and to the Leavitt Weaver crew as well. And thank you to CZ and the Elliott's for letting me be a part of it.

Winter break was amazing, always good to get back to AZ. Good people, good food, good times. Got some mountain biking and boarding in, but now back in Chicago and not a mountain in sight. Thank you so much to everyone who helped and housed me along the way, love you guys. One more semester to go!
