Hello folks,   last blog for the semester. I think?

It had been a wonderful experience here at STOSS, though I wouldn't recommend any of you to work here unless you are willing to deal with constant switch ups from government reps. 

Back to the vlog, it was another somewhat boring week, still doing these program tokens, it's been 2 weeks and I feel like a miner in a hole, was so done with these tokens. Almost done thou, finishing it up Monday and hopefully never have to do these ever again in my life. I must have made 200 of these damn tokens. because there's 4 stations and each have about 50 tokens that varies on shapes and size and programs and 2 other events that are smaller but required different tokens, one for the city and one for highschoolers. this menu below shows only a portion cause this one is for the kids in the nearing high-school.

Any who the weekend was great, again hang out with Albert my PM, and another co-worker, we went on a hike to Halibut, was pretty and had some good seafood. Dare i say better than Louisiana fried seafood, it wasn't battered thick, was light so i liked it a lot better. yall will have different opinion i know. The view was definitely great i had a little meditation and napped a little by the ocean.



and on the side note i found a interesting pin i liked by a small shop near the hike spot. it's going on my pc desktop.
Side side note here is a cool little pickup.
the Sunday I had some fun exploring the city, weather wasn't the greatest at the beginning but it end up sunny and quite pretty.




btw these images was taken 3 hours apart and the sunny one was take later in the day, what a fun city, ended up biking home cause the weather got so nice. somehow cost me more than the bus.

Then another boring week, was moving bricks and taking sample images for the client and stuff, boring week again. Had a party Thursday for a intern send off, will have mine when i leave as well, maybe will update again then maybe not. No image at the party.

Friday we went out with a bunch of Boston LA people cause of BSLA event, met up with some of Jack and Clara and Houston's co-workers, was a great night out.
Saturday hangout with Albert and Yanchi again, Ping pong and had some Korean food, no image.
Sunday was wondering out and saw a small pop up market, got some things to collect cat whiskers, nice weekend. 
End of blog and end of semester ? will update again if required. See you people fall semester.

OJB (Houston) - Taylor - 1

I guess I'll be brave for once and post first lol. I also have nothing to do right now and everyone around me are in meetings I wasn't invited to 😞. I started at OJB early last month, January 12, as I imagine a lot of y'all have as well. My first couple days consisted of onboarding paperwork, software setup, and getting to meet the rest of the team. Chandler, my desk buddy and the main guy who finds me things to do, had me update some rhino models and Lumion renderings to begin with. The highlight of my first week though had to be making it onto the website. I felt way too proud of that. You gotta scroll all the way down to the bottom to find me 😂.  I began some real work doing grading studies for a clock/art installation/stage/tower/overlook over at the University of Houston. Thank God for Hayden or else I would've embarrassed myself for not knowing basic grading 👀. I modeled the thing like 15 different times as the team tried out new ideas of how to fit it into the...

Hey guys! Hope all is well at school or on your internships! Some background about where I am working for the currently, Wenk is a landscape architecture office based in Denver that works on a huge range of projects, from more urban park spaces to campus planning and tons of wetland restoration. So far, I’ve been lucky enough to work on six different projects, which has made every day feel different and exciting. A big chunk of my time has been spent on two master plan renderings. I have also been working on a community outreach presentation for a local park 2 mins from my house! Looking forward to drawing concepts this  upcoming Friday ! They’ve been both tedious and oddly relaxing at the same time. During my first week, I also got to go on a couple of site visits, which was a great way to dive in. The first visit focused on tree mitigation, where we marked which trees were being removed for a future trail and documented their condition. The next site visit was at CU Boulder’s sop...
