This was my senior project and I had so much fun coming up with all of the sage advice I would give someone in their first year of college and living on their own for the first time. The part that was the most fun though was making and stylizing the illustrations. My personal favorite is “You cannot survive on Poptarts alone,” which was discovered after a finals week was fueled only by Poptarts (page not not pictured). I’m proud to say I am 3 years clean from that fateful week and haven’t had a Poptart since.

In my senior portfolio class, we had an assignment to write out instructions to do something. Most people chose things like ‘how to make a paper airplane’ or ‘how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich’. I was uninspired by the usual topics and decided to do something a little more unique—a tongue-in-cheek guide on ‘how to be a hipster’. After everyone in class loved it, I decided to make it into an accordion fold pamphlet and get it printed.
