Hello there, my dear readers. :) Goodness, I feel like I haven't written a "real post" in ages. But I'm sure it hasn't been that long...
So guess who's been a busy bee? This girl has! \(>.<)/ I got twelve orders on my design blog in two days (Mind = Blown). At first I was astonished this many people wanted to work with me, and wanted me to design their blog. I was/am so happy. But of course, that's twelve designs. Twelve people vying for my attention and I have to be attentive to each one. I have to double check I'm giving the right person what they want (sometimes I'm so easily confused...), and have to make sure there are enough creative juices to go around. So far it's been well. It just annoys me that my email inbox is so full. -.- I'm (usually) the type of person who replies to their emails just to make my inbox number get closer to zero. o.O
So, yes... maybe I could share with you guys some of the designs I've done. :} I don't know.
It's kinda sad (I guess? I don't know. There's probably a better word.) though, because recently my computer has been acting up and I've had to keep it on my desk (which is where I've been sitting all day). The other day I was sitting in bed and all of a sudden the screen just goes white. Then it like, faded to black. And went back to white. While it was doing this, I'm pretty sure my heart threw up into my stomach. I need this computer. I cannot function without it. Well, actually, I could. I'd just feel disconnected and sad because I wouldn't be able to do anything. :P Gosh, practically live on this thing. Our relationship cannot be healthy. -.-
Anyway, I guess all this has been to say, I'm busy, and don't have a lot of down time right now--nor do I have a properly functioning computer. But school is done for me, starting tomorrow. :) I'm so excited! My insides have been craving freedom ever since school started. O.o
Alrighty, well, I better go. These blogs won't design themselves. ;)
Thank you for reading. <3

Whoa! You sound busy! I have started designing blogs too. I have gotten two orders in one day this week, and I thought that was a lot! ;)
ReplyDeleteOh and may I ask if you could help me out with some blog design questions? I know your super busy right now, but I would really appreciate it if you could email me sometime. If you don't want to tell me anything then that's totally fine. :)
Here's my email: eveofwomanhood@gmail.com

I don't even have a computer, but if I'd cry if the family one die. This baby and I, we're going to die together. ^.^ *insert picture of me in my grave with my cold white fingers pried around my computer* best friends till the very end. ;)
ReplyDeleteA couple of tips:
ReplyDelete1.) Take your time. The design won't be what you want it to be if you do not concentrate, and you will be disappointed in yourself if you don't give it your all.
2.) Do not stress. Whatever you do, do not stare at a computer screen until your eyes pop out. You need to go outside, feel nature on your face, get a snack, make some lemonade.
3.) Make sure you have patience with yourself. You can't design a website and work your normal schedule all at the same time. I have learned all these things myself in the past three years the hard way. Designing can be a fun business but a brain wracking one as well.
3.) Make sure there's lots of lighting in your work space. Open a window, turn on a lamp. It's refreshing and brightens your mood.
Sounds like you are really busy!
ReplyDeleteYour designs are great! :)
