It has been over three months without an update. This blog is very overdue for one. I feel the need to explain myself for the lack of updates. So on that note, what has been happening with myself?
How to Become a Design Genius: Take Time Off. Lots of It.
Every seven years, the graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister takes a one-year sabbatical. As he argues, that’s not so crazy.
I am a fan of wooden furniture. I am also a fan of beer. I recently purchased a new, wooden desk for myself because the previous one I had was falling apart after being moved to at least three different locations within the four years I have had it. With having a new item comes my O.C.D. of making sure it is well maintained. One way to help maintain the quality of a wooden desk is by using a coaster for my beverages.

For many years I have blogged. I first started out at Blogger in middle school, then moved to LiveJournal in high school, then moved to MySpace in the beginning of college, and now I’m amongst the elite of bloggers: WordPress.
I plan to dedicate this blog for graphic design related articles only. No more life updates, no more rants (unless it’s related to graphic design, of course), and no more nonsense. This blog shall reflect myself as a graphic designer and hopefully help teach and/or inspire those that will be reading this. So for those of you who are now my followers, I welcome you to my little corner of my nerdy life.
