Now I'm getting my classes confused. Life has it's wonderful moments does it not?

Some how I have gotten two of my classes mixed up and have begun working on design elements for my make believe business in both of them.
Here is why I think I messed up.
I am taking Art 130, Comm130 and WDD 100 all in my first semester along with my religion class FDREL 225. Well Art 130 is a Graphic Designers Class, Comm130 is a Visual Communication Class, and WDD 100 is a Web Design Class. Maybe to much designing at one time.
Any ways I am enjoying the classes myself, not to sure how happy my instructors are. All of them I will say have been very helpful. Nothing like I remember school being like back in the 1900's when I went to school in my youth.
Here is my latest project I handed in tonight or lets say early AM.
Let me know which one you like and I'll let everyone know which is the favorite.
Thanks for your help everyone.

First Draft of my Magazine Cover.

This is my first draft for a fictional Magazine Cover.
What do you all think. I hated it after seeing how much work the other students put into theirs. I need to try harder. Also I need to get feed back from others that will give honest constructive critiques.



BYUI online is not easy, but worth it.

I do not know about the rest of you who have tried online colleges, but for me it has been an eye opening experience. I took online classes part of last year and part of this year and I did just fine. The way it was set due dates and it keep track of what you had done.That was using a program called iLearn 2.0. Well as usual if it is not broke they had to break it. iLearn 3.0 is  not as user friendly. Some class keep track. some are done on Facebook, and yet others are done through online books, where all the quizzes are.
Don't get me wrong if it sound like I am complaining, (I actual am.) I still want to say how great it is to be learning new things. I had six classes. I figured after 2 weeks it was way to much. So now I am down to 4 classes. 10 credits instead of 16. Well now my grant I had; they took away because I am not signed up for 12 credits.
I hope I do not have to mess with any of that and it will work out.
I had prayed and ponder for a week over dropping those 2 classes of to keep them My wife and  I both decide to drop the 2 classes and move them to next semester.
How is every one doing? The General conference for the whole Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. 5 two hour sessions in all, starts tomorrow and runs into Sunday. Its on BYU TV. It is also broadcasted at the Rockford Stake Center Here in Rockford, IL and other chapels through out the world.

This is how I feel sometimes when I pray for strength!


2 Nephi 4; 20 -23 From the Book of Mormon. 

20 My God hath been my support; he hath led me through mine afflictions in the wilderness; and he hath preserved me upon the waters of the great deep.
 21 He hath filled me with his love, even unto the consuming of my flesh.
 22 He hath confounded mine enemies, unto the causing of them to quake before me.
 23 Behold, he hath heard my cry by day, and he hath given me knowledge by visions in the night-time.
 24 And by day have I waxed bold in mighty prayer before him; yea, my voice have I sent up on high; and angels came down and ministered unto me.

This is how I feel sometimes when I pray for strength! Praying for strength is not a sign of weakness, it is a sign of Faith!

Web addrress change and the addition of some of my artwork.

FYI: I have added some other school work and a place to put some of my old artwork on display for others to view. I could of made another blog or website, but this way I can maintain this one and still post scriptures and my other thoughts on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I will no doubt eventually purchase a domain address for my artwork and as a place for my services as a Freelance Graphic Designer to be acquired.
