So What's up folks?! How have been your beginning of the year so far ?
Mine,
I can say, it has been quite busy and strange. I have been having mixed
feelings, excitement, frustration and surely exhaustion.
First,
I am still juggling work and school classes, but from a different
perspective. I started working from home last month. It is quite a
change. I still need to adjust myself but I quite like the fact that I
don't have people watching over my shoulders every 5 seconds to see what
I am doing. It doesn't mean that I don't work..I do work, I actually
work that fast that sometimes, I don't have anything else to do, so
after looking for an hour another activity, I end up doing stuffs for
the master. So it is quite good.
On the other hand, how is the master going?
Ummmm !! I start
feeling a little disapointed by the lack of organisation of the whole
course and the poor consistency of some of the classes we have to follow
this trimester. It is quite frustrating as we tried to flag that up to
the Course Coordinator, but it seems that they believe this is
fine...Talking to a dead wall here :-S
Never mind, I believe that
if they can't solve it out (or refuse to do so) then I will just take
whatever I can from the class, learn whatever I can and hopefully get
the Degree at the end.
Talking about the Degree, we finally got
the dates of our last assignment/exam/presentation...or call it like you
want and it will be right in a middle of July. So I am not looking
forward to May and June as I will probably be working like crazy to get
the project finished and dusted. Yes....long hours of work coming !!
But we do say "YOLO !! You Only Live Once " (like my sister
Le Blabla de Salsita told
me the other day on whatsapp), so no regret on anything I have done so
far, even if I feel very tired and quite exhausted right now (awake
since 6 am). I am convinced that I am learning from every steps I have
been taking and this is life: it is not meant to be easy.
So far, I
have been doing quite a lot of work which I never thought I could be
able to do and which I can be proud of. I have learned to use
Illustrator, some parts of Photoshop, I have drawn my first digital
mini-collection, and I started to go through the fundamental
structure of a business....You may judge from yourself here.

I
am currently working on setting up my brand/business model, and that
will probably be my next post, but for now, please leave me a comment,
tell me anything my work makes you think of.
Ciao.
