#ArchiTalks 34 "renewal"



Renewal
Towards the end of 2017, I was aware of a lot of things I had to renew, my architecture license in two different states, my ethics training for my planning commission position, the continuing education units that I somehow had not finished….
And my renewal email for the AIA.
And as another year was nearing to a close, I looked back and thought,


It was the best of times
It was the worst of times….
And I was glad that I had the training and the wherewithall to be in the position I was in,
an architect
And I probably learned more about hospital design and the OR and OSHPD 3 than I ever thought I would, and I am still learning...  
Life Lessons!!!


(if you have never watched this Martin Scorcese contribution to “New York Stories” watch it now, you will learn what to do and what not to do to make it as a creative…. Nick Nolte’s best film by far…)
Another year and i look back on my resolution or post from the last two years and….
It doesn’t look like i do much at all
But….
I really do
So, what I have decided to do is “borrow” from one of the greatest, if not the greatest late night comedian of all time:
David Letterman


And his “Top Ten List”
