Embracing reality...[period]..

of worries and worry nots

theres always something comforting abt the end of the year. Mb its the anticipation of an holiday or the year is coming to an end signifying a new beginning….of sorts, or the fact that there are plenty of public holidays ard the corner.

Life as a designer in a corporate world is brain- numbing.

It takes the fun out of designing and alas, the most important, the ‘play’ out of the process. But still certain things I’ve learnt to deal with and a many certain things i’ve learnt to draw. Under a you-should-just start-your-own-firm-la team leader whose looks will mislead you to believe that he’s not as senior as he is, you learn from his patience but sometimes hopes he can be a bit less bounded by restrictions, clients and money. He has so much more to offer. Amidst a resignation, a cramp desk space and the enormous amount of paper (which I will recycle as wrapping paper..hehe), I still wake up every morning, hopeful.

The end of the year signifies another thing: application. Education. The fear and the uncertainty. The what if’s and what if nots. Although it does feel like a breath of fresh air coupled with a sigh of relief.
