First order of business…the site doesn’t style well in Internet Explorer. Yes, the number one browser in the world. I could care less. I know it’s terrible, but get yourself off that lousy web browser and onto something that doesn’t crash or render web site wrong. Safari & Firefox are both valid choices here. Both are free and both work on mac & pc.
Three posts in one day! All text posts and the day hasn’t even begun yet… something has to be going on. Well one, I cannot sleep. Two, I feel like I haven’t written in here for a while, a while by my standards. Three, this place needs a lot of content. Four, the images in the right hand corner… I LOVE’EM!
Also, let me give you my quick run down as to what’s been going on. If you follow my tweets, you’ll know that I started my new internship at a design studio here in Chicago. My first day was this past Friday and I really enjoyed it. Like the work that I’m doing, really like the atmosphere and the people seem to be easy to get along with. What more can I ask for… pay? Yeah that’s nice too.
But since Friday I’ve been wanting to just design and create and keep moving forward. Such a good thing. No complaints, none at all. My portfolio site was thrown together just days before starting the internship, just so that I could show the company some of my work. It was a design that I was working with but didn’t have time to actually complete it the way that I had wanted to. I’ve got new design ideas already in my head, ones that match the new business cards that I printed out. It’s all good. I just want to keep this ball rolling.
Let me tell you another thing, quickly because I do need to get some rest before my long day tomorrow.
I was so freaking nervous before my interview for this company but as soon as I walked in and sat down and started the interview, I felt such a rush of excitement and all I wanted to do was continue to talk about myself, only kidding, but I just felt so good. I loved the feeling, the rush it brought me to interview. For a while now I have been told my numerous people that I need to just start interviewing at places. Places I’m not even interested in working at really. Reason being, is I need to figure out this interview process but more importantly I need to figure out what people are looking for. So true. Love the advice. I expect to be interviewing at a lot more places, just for that rush feeling in the coming months.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ll still be looking to land jobs, but that interview process is amazing.
