hey it's been literally a year since I wrote a blog post. maybe i'll remember to write more. yah rite. anyway i spent 8 hours yesterday working on the kyodai pages, which i didn't intend to, i just kept working because I was enjoying myself! and I got some java to work!! maybe someday i'll made photo viewers…
had lots of fun making the kyodai page and the maggie page. but they don't work on mobile which stinks. maybe i'll get more inspo and update the garf page again to something more interesting. I'll have to come up with something interesting for the sonic page.
I feel like the main pages of my site are kinda boring :/ do other people think they look cool? im growing bored of them. maybe it's because i've had them for a year and a half. wait i just had the great idea to make the blog reader look like a dA journal.
in other news i went to a junto last tuesday and i won the game of munchkin we played. hopefully this works for me! hanging out with other people because I only have one friend who I see with any regularity. and i'm going to work on going to the other events at work too, like the game nights. also I made a budget tracker and spent some time figuring out what to pay for the 6 months post graduation. i gotta add that I wrote some macros to my linkedin. I have a bunch of examples ready from my time as an intern at the place i work but i don't think i'll be hearing about a full time or other part time offer until after this summer which is unfortunate. my boss hired 2 full time UXers in may and recently hired a graphic design intern and i think a social media intern is also in the works.
maybe I can look at the situation that because i've been there for a year and a half that my boss knows that he doesnt have to worry about me? i mean he could be more enthusiastic with getting me some kind of offer but i have previously told him that i am okay with being an intern for the summer. im not in desprate need of a full time gig, i am fortunate to be able to live with my parents. so he can take his sweet time hiring on other people for the creative team and get them situated and then deal with me when i struggle through the transition into full time work. fun times.
okay i am done writing now i gotta code this and i've spent the whole morning working on a time zone map for work and then doing other website stuff and i want to lay on my bed and eat a muffin.
one last thing there is a stray kitten outside we are trying to get. i'm calling them Baby for now.
also every time i come back to coding for my site i forget like half of all html and css. #sucks.
