semester. I shall take no day-off, hold no vacation, do no procrastination. I shall use my logbook and get inspirations. I shall wake and sleep at my studio. I am the pen in the darkness. I am the architecture student. I am the hand that acts like god, the light that brings the life, the idea that controls the people, the shield that guards the families of men. I pledge my life and honor to the studio table, for this day and night and all the days and nights to come.
