Granted, I'm doing it really half-assed because I do not have the time and energy to be really gung-ho about it, but after a particularly discouraging portfolio review followed by the realization that I don't think I actually want to be a graphic designer, I decided "fuck it, I'm gonna do this ( Read more... )
