Still awake. I had planned to sleep after class which got out at 5:30 but instead I had energy and packed up almost the whole apartment. I have very close to everything that needs to be stored in the locker. Heath and Britt are talking about the Crab Shack and Im looking at only sleep.

Managed to make 2 white and 1 black mold of my model. The black as giving me lost of problems, which turned out to me my fault. I was using mold release when I didn’t have to with the plastic compound and it was actually causing bubbled to form which makes a cast useless. I want to make atleast one more black one for class. Finishing them off to a perfect finish doesn’t take too long,...

Managed to sleep 5 hours before Human Factors. Waste of a class, then Studio was a work day. I managed to finish my mold and cast one of the tape guys. Looks amazing. I have to do a bunch of sanding but Im thinking it will be worth it. I still want to make a total of 10. Tonight involves casting 9 more models, sanding for several hours. Then I have to write the rest of my process book and throw...
