This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I’ll never look into your eyes again
So this week has been the final week of the course and what a week it has been, last week was bad enough, what with the blog hand in deadline and the starting of setting up the degree show for everyone…
On a side note: My blog was very last minute and not too detailed I know this, however, I did get some good feedback for one of my posts from the tutor who is marking them, so maybe some are an enjoyable read, not all bad, I think it’s my wit and humor LOL!!!
Can you put LOL in a university blog… too late, I just did.
I’ll bring you up to speed from last week, last week I could do nothing, I was planning on doing something, but that ended as I hit a predicament where the space I was due to display my work in suddenly became ‘unavailable’, it later turns out that this space was to be used for a promotional poster, a promotional poster? A promotional poster!!!… Sorry, sounds silly when I write it, hmmm, a piece of degree show work, or a poster???
So whilst I was getting my blog together, I was also trying to locate other areas that my work could go till I knew what was happening, which wasn’t going to be till Tuesday because of Bank Holiday Monday. Tuesday arrives…
BAD NEWS
The space is to be used to promote the Universities Degree Show, the course has finished, no students are occupying the block apart from the final year that are setting up degree show and to promote the show they are going to stick a poster inside the hallway of a building that no one is walking through. So plan B: The email of disappointment. All credit is due to the tutor at this point who argued my case, but I did have to send him an email saying how deeply disappointed I was that I could not use the space I intended, outlining my proposal, why it was suited there, why no other area worked and that would then be passed on to the person who wanted the space for a poster. At this point its late Tuesday and I am still yet to make a start on setting up my actual degree show, my second works for the degree show, that being the spray painted walkway I am yet to make a start on due to the rather shitty weather that is taking place in the final week of June, sun is on the horizon, but not until Friday.
MORE BAD NEWS
Wednesday hits and there is still no answer, I am still waiting and am filling my time with helping other students prepare their spaces and hang their work. Finally there is some news and it appears that they believe there are other spaces my work can go, so we are going on a tour of the building to view other possibilities.
OUTCOME
No other spaces
STILL WAITING
Finally late Wednesday afternoon I am given the go ahead to have the space, which left me with enough time to move a cabinet from the space, fill all the holes and paint the wall white.
YAY!!
