Like Eames, I attended architecture school, and I did very well there, earning an overall grade of "A" in design one particular semester, when only two "A"s were awarded to a class of 75 architecture students. Sadly for me, I floundered in the upper classes, since my extremely slow designing method didn't allow me to finish my designs by the allotted time, and I subsequently "flunked out" of my fourth year class. I have remained creative over the years, however, focusing upon inventions and such, which, with no time constraints, I can take as long as I need to complete the project. I am about to get a patent on one invention that I have been developing for over 20 years now -- an apparatus worn by joggers. I spent six months this year constructing a working model, and it was a success. All that I need is one major success, and I will build a studio/workshop to carry on with my work. Luck to me.
