In the Second Years class of Jewellery and Object Design Enmore the project we’ve all been working on for over a term’s duration is finally coming to an end. Our ‘Physical Fact’ postcard project has been a hard one for all of us, and we all struggled with our own individual speed bumps and obstacles along the way.
There has been cursing, restlessness and migraines all around but finally, after the grunting hours in the workshop and the stressful term of our exhausting endeavour it will all be over soon. But is this a good thing? It should be, with the end of one project and the beginning of another next term, but for those who are still working hard to finish their projects the approaching deadline, first day back after our midyear break is looming over them like a lingering shadow. And even though there is doubt among them I have full faith that my fellow classmates will prevail, like we always do in JOD Enmore. I think it’s needless to say that whether some of us had loved this project to bits or hated it for our own reasons that we will all be glad to hand it in and therefore be done with it, then its all up to our incredible teachers Catherine and Ki to grade our efforts and then we shall all see if our journey was worth it. And then it all happens all over again.
Two down, two to go.

Though our workshop project had become the major concern for most of us we have also met the deadline for our JD Specialisation projects aswell. Crimson 2 have finished their work with the raising technique taught by Ragnar and Indigo 2 has finished their work in glasswork taught by Jane. As we approach the second semester of our year we say goodbye to those techniques we grew to enjoy and find ourselves swapping subjects to discover a new technique worth learning in JD Specialisation. We are all looking forward to our new specialisation classes, and we have the addition of photography to our short Mondays to look forward to as well.
New exiting frontiers in Professional Practice approach with the new term as our second year assignment, either the Young Blood Markets or the Auction demand our attention in the coming weeks. We have allot to be excited about with the end of the first semester, and as the first half of our year ends a new one is beginning. It’ll be great to see how we do next time around.
