It’s Almost been a full year of being on my own… I quit my old job last January to pursue freelancing. I can’t even count the amount of days I have stayed up till daylight broke.. all for the rush of meeting the deadline.. It’s 2:30 as I type now… and this is the third day in the row I have sat in front of my computer all day. I know my wife is soooo excited about that.
I’ve got a fever and the only cure is perfect kerning.
O no.. it’s turning into another one of those “designers new years resolution” posts.. I give you full authority to leave now.. I’m just thinking out loud… with my fingers..? All joking aside.. I love my “job” ( I gave it quotes because it does not feel like a job). In the Past I’ve done everything, from working as a stock boy at a Super Target, cashier at Chick-fil-a, shampooing and sweeping floors while trying to get my hair stylist license.. to calling “all skate” and rocking 80’s music as the DJ of a skating rink, and being a project manager of a furniture company. But freelancing is the only Job I have loved… I mean I can’t stop thinking about it, everything thing I see I’m thinking of a project I could use it on.. or I search around design blogs and magazines just because it excites me. I’ve got a fever and the only cure is perfect kerning.
I’m hoping the year 2010 brings great things. I feel I have grown a lot in the past year, met so many amazing people and been able to work on a lot of cool projects… And I still can’t believe I get paid doing it!
couple of quick designs to get my brain thinkin’ … did’nt work

I turned 25 today…. looking forward to a break on my insurance… but not looking forward to my 5 year plan now ending when I’m 30.
I”ve been watching the news a lot lately, well not really.. but I did today while I was working out… Seams that all I have to do to make it big is #fail (oops forgot i’m not on twitter) I mean… if I create terrible designs and my customer service is below par me and my wife might end up on the streets. BUT thats when the magic happens and the *spleeeeee* (magic fairy dust noise) the goverment is going to come and give us millions of dollars to stay around…. so why should I try?
I probably just annoyed some people.. don’t take it to heart… I’m just joshin’

I’m off to New York with my bud Rick (@Rick_Smith) see you on the flip side!
I have a issue with gathering tons of images that I come across online and sticking them in random folders… while doing some clean up the other day I found my stash of inspiring rooms. I’m a sucker for a clean, cool room. hmm
Sorry I have no clue where any of these came from.. If it is your room… congrats!

I started wearing glasses about 4 years ago.. I’m somewhat against contacts (sticking things in your eyes… ewww) I’m thinking about expanding my collection which consist of a old beat up Prada black frame and my current Ray bans.. I’m loving the the first pic (found here) Ever since Lauren Conrad has been rocking the Ray Bans it seams like everyone and their mother asks me if they are “real” … no I wear these things because i love seeing the world through plastic…
hmm
