			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just finalized a project with Greenville College Resident Life this morning. I was asked to design a logo for WalkAbout— a 10-day hiking trip in the Smokies.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve gone on the trip twice so I had some personal experience to bring to this project. A big part of the trip is a 48-hour experience in which students fast in solitude with nothing but the clothes on their backs, a half-inch foam mat, a sheet of plastic (not quite big enough to completely shield from rain), and a page of the Bible. At the end of the experience, students are encouraged to create a circle of stones as sort of a personal monument.</p>
<p>The time I enjoyed most on the trip was at the end of each night when we would sit in a circle around a fire and just talk.</p>
<p>I drew on these two components of the trip to create this logo (and badge):</p>
<p><img src="http://curtisblackwell.com/ajhngvbng/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/walkabout.png" alt="walkabout" title="walkabout" width="390" height="308" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-299" /></p>
<p>The only thing I don&#8217;t really like about it is the raised bar on the As, but they&#8217;re not too bad. That was one of the clients&#8217; ideas to make them seem more like mountains.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At the very least I have workaholic tendencies. I get so caught up in what I&#8217;m doing that I&#8217;d rather continue working than spend time with friends. Even right now, I&#8217;ve been drinking and all I can think about is working on learning about <abbr title="Hypertext Mark-up Language">HTML</abbr> 5 and <abbr title="Cascading Style Sheets">CSS</abbr> 3.</p>
<p>So here I am at 1:30am sitting at my computer about to play around with the internet.</p>
<p><span class="html-comment">&lt;!&#45;&#45; EDIT &#45;&#45;&gt;</span><br />
Somewhat related— my Gallup Top 5 Strengths are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Developer,</li>
<li>Restorative,</li>
<li>Belief,</li>
<li>Responsibility,</li>
<li>and Empathy.</li>
</ol>
<p>The only one of those unanimously agreed upon by those who know me is Responsibility.</p>
