Tag: <span>freelancing</span>

On current standings, I have an assignment worth 30% due tomorrow. It has reduced my weekend to a slobbering, pathetic mess and has cause much pain in the sensible*. After 3.5 days of over induced stress, I am now officially over it, if I glean a pass I will be more than happy.

Work currently consists of my regular part time job at a Business Consultancy and all this unexpected freelance work that has suddenly surmounted** . So, I am designing a CV for someone, continuing with the rebranding of a school (co-assignment based) and I’m on hold for doing a website-showreel for a guy in film. I want to do these things well, they mean more to me than assignments – however much I try to trick myself in favor of my homework.

Other uni stuff is inclusive of a group assignment – which isn’t so bad, and the rotoscoping task, which is just fun.

But all up, I am rather worn out. This is why you are not getting deep-thought here. It keeps leaking through the cracks of my mind’s current constant analysis of advertising and semiotics.

*gosh this is way too amusing
**possibly not exactly the right use of the word.

After my previous rant, things leveled out slightly better than I could’ve hoped.

I still have that unslightly blight on my Monday, but I managed to fill my 3hr gap on Thursday with a class from Friday and move the last remaining class to Wednesday (Yes I am currently meant to be paying attention in my online class – but it’s the first one and my parents mercifully forced me to learn to type way back when). Huzzah.

I scored dandy this morning re. WordPress themes. I managed to get a free membership for the $5 theme club giveaway, thanks to: A Typical Life, which I found through some other design blog as I was chowing through my backlogged feedreader.

Thinking about it, I also scored well yesterday where an innocent request for logo files for something I was doing for work, turned into a strange little email conversation that has probably thrown some freelancing work my way. Yay!!! Unknown to you, I have been working on a website for folio/freelancing etc. and I used it and she liked it and she’s got too much on her plate. Thank you Helen!
