This is my final post and it's a bitter sweet moment. I finalized my project proposal presentation materials. Fortunately, I got mine approve! It was a tough road, but I'm happy with how the project turned out and I'm eager to get started.

Thesis 3: Module 14

-
The past few weeks I've been steadily working on my deliverables, presentation, and process book. I'm still working on the minor details, but overall my thesis is complete.  I do think there's more I can expand upon my thesis after my presentation so I'm looking forward to exploring more and putting my thesis in my portfolio.  There have been a lot of trials for me this semester, but I think everything came together towards the end.  I look forward to seeing where my thesis takes me and how my final semester will wrap up my degree next semester.

This week was pretty hectic getting ready for my user testing sessions. I had a few different instances of user testers one in person, one virtually, and one survey. In total I have 8 responses/user testers from this past week.

I also learned about “common” diseases dogs get like Parvo as a puppy, a disease which killed Naomi’s sister. But, mistakes are learned. When Naomi was six (people years), she was diagnosed with a severe case of heartworm. Heartworms are caused by infected mosquitos and my home town of Corpus Christi TX, was infested with them, especially in the summer. I decided to treat her slowly, knowing she wouldn’t be able to handle the toxicity of the “quick” method since she was always hyper. Fortunately, she got out of it and is now heart-worm free. My dog also gave me perspective on love and opened my heart more. 2) Picking up my first art utensils I’m sure my first art supplies as a kid included crayons and pencils. However, I always remembered my ...
