and 16 weeks. Will be back here, sometime.

soundtrack: Corinne Bailey Rae – Put Your Records On

Where to start, right?

First there was the email. And it was a Yes. I am moving back to Holland in August.
Then it was final project presentations and graduation. More flowers and bubbly.

After five years I think it’s become time to close this blog and start something new. I’m thinking a place to document my type design studies and work. I’ll let you know. But first – summer holiday. Have a good one!

Black coffee in a grey city.

Printed, bound, delivered. Thanks everyone for good wishes!
The typework, of course, continues.

Tomorrow First Aid Kit.

soundtrack: Rebekka Karijord – Wear it like a crown

…or my thesis materials. Only two weeks till the written part of the graduation project has to be handed in. Yikes!

Anyone else graduating?

soundtrack: Jem – Stay Now

Somehow almost no pictures in the camera, so I will tell you: Four days walking around my other city. One nerve-wracking interview. Meeting dear old friends. Meeting some newer friends again. Some resolution. One cute cat. Rainy/Sunny Amsterdam. Closed typography bookshop. One kilo of Gouda to bring home. (But I could have just stayed…)

soundtrack: Sara Bareilles – Vegas (live)

Great workshop; I learned lots of new technical stuff and got a good start for my thesis project (so expect a lot of type pics!).

Flight tickets in my pocket, the song suits my mood. It’s all about doing crazy things sometimes, right?

Back to school (after a year). This week, type workshop with Andreu Balius.

soundtrack: Shout Out Louds – Fall Hard

Home workspace organized and ready to go. Couple more things to the inspiration/ motivation wall, perhaps. I’m hoping that staring at the t]m specimen poster every day will work some magic.

2010 -  No need for additional new years promises really; I have the index cards. Except for the  g r a d u a t i o n card. And the a p p l i c a t i o n s card. This quote makes me think, though:  You must bring something to the school before you can carry even more away as you leave it. Then again, it’s not up to me. My work is to try.

soundtrack: Amanda Jenssen – Another Christmas

Lots of rest and big wishes for the new year!
