staring at stained glass windows....
So...it's wednesday ( I think), and I'm sick. But at work. I came in to work today and no one's here...strange. Total silence. This place is definitley in need of music............okay that's better. So it's been raining here non stop for the past couple of days now, I feel like I'm in England or something. It snowed a couple of times as well, but not nearly enough to make it fun. I've accepted the fact that I can't go snowboarding until I come back from Jamaica, so most likely not till next year. :( I can hear my snowboard calling me all the way from Mike's house.
So on an unrelated issue, I came across this www.paddywagons.com ( and this will probably only be interesting for council rock people, or people who were friends with Maria and Stacey) ......but daayuuuum! That is all I have to say.
I've been working on my website cuz I feel like it's about time I have something up. It's so hard when it comes to designing for yourself cuz you want it to be absolutely flawless which makes you eternally dissatisfied with it. I've changed the complete design of it 10 times already and still nothing seems to work. I think it's due to the fact that the design of your website says so much about you and they style in which you design. It kinda brands you as a certain type of designer, and I feel like I don't have a definite style yet. I love messy misprintedtype sorta design, but on the other hand I really like structure and, coming from U arts, of course the whole grid thing. So until I decide exactly what I want to say with my website, it can't be done. I've started looking for jobs again, in NY this time. I feel like I need to work for a designer, and not an architect. I need to be able to learn something from my place of work, and for my boss to understand exactly what I'm doing. And as perfect as this job is in other aspects, it lacks challenge and variety and glamour. It is a hell of a lot easier looking for jobs while being at a job. Takes pressure away and makes you more brave. I figured out I can't truely be in my element until I'm in the city though. So that's my mission! ...oh and also, to stop being sick. That would also be good.
