so, how they hangin'?

I like to ask this question to random people. Sometimes they have good answers (low and to the left, for example) and sometimes they are completely befuddled and that's the fun part.
Well, here's how mine's hangin': close.
And now that we know THAT, let me tell you what I've been up to in classes.

 I had a presentation to do in Humanities. My project was "Exploring the Gilded Age Through Architecture and the Upper Class in America". I had an afternoon tea with Darjeeling, lemon water, cucumber sandwiches, scones, mushroom pate, and assorted additions. The culinary students really liked the scones, which I made from scratch. "You should be in Baking and Pastry with us!" That made me happy. My slide show was awesome and I had brochures and a diorama to accompany my presentation. Basically, I killed it. When the teacher asked who was going next, one guy said, "I'm not following that!" That made me happy, too.
In my typography class, we got to design our own font! We had to keep a doodle journal for five weeks and the class picked from that.
Here is a poster I'm doing in my font, the name of it, I'm calling Mahal Kita. It translates to "I love you" in Tagalog, the language of the Philippines. It's based on doodles I used to paint on my pants when I was a teenager.
So, what you think?
my diorama, it's the construction of The Breakers, a housethat the Vanderbilt family once used in the summers.

see!? my font is listed!

my font poster. I like it. All the required elements are included!
