right. so as a student you should be creating about 50 logo ideas and many business card options. you're not restricted to the budget/time constraints that the rest of us are, nor are you helping your folio and future employment but fixating on one idea. whoever is teaching you should have driven this into your head as important fact number one.
use pencil, paint, crayon, blood, computer, whatever you like to get those ideas some and then start cleaning the ones up that have some reasoning behind them. then shortlist a few (aim for 3) and see where you go from there.
also, you're dealing with a lot of opinions, experience and egos in this place so if you post something for crit be prepared for a flogging. you may like something but that doesn't mean the majority will agree. also doesn't mean the majority will be right but you aren't going to get any better if you think you're an uber designer when, to be honest, you're not. that's not a cheap shot either, i'm not very good so simple hard work and critical viewing have to make up for the lack of talent. which they sometimes do. sometimes don't.
