Some thoughts
by jason on Feb.08, 2010, under Life, Musings
I’ve been getting worse at this consistent design thing. I thought it would make me better, more creative, but I feel so dry, so unmotivated right now. I do think it has helped, but in a more technical sense. On that note, I have been telling myself all day to put some thoughts on paper (or blog, not the same but close enough).
Sometimes I wonder why I blog at all, but deep down I think I know. I really do love sharing things with friends and peers, but for the most part I think I would still have a blog if I never had a single visitor. Sometimes I just need to write stuff out, and paper is probably better, there’s something special about physically writing it out in your own handwriting, but similar principles are at work here.
There has been so much on my mind lately. Work seems to hit me in very large waves. I don’t feel like I have the necessary skills at times nor the time to learn. Trying to budget. To plan. To possibly buy a house, meaning find a realtor, look, budget… Preparing for a wedding and all the things that go with, with a fiance that lives in a different city. I think the worst thing of all is the close friends I have in my life are hundreds of miles away, meaning I often don’t have that outlet to share my thoughts, feelings, ect ect. At least not at the same level from former times. I suppose that’s why I’m expressing here, letting something out.
Anyway, overall things have been quite good. There’s so many reasons to be thankful. I find it challenging even writing this though because as I do there are so many thoughts basically knocking each other down, trying to get out, like the opening of a popular woman’s store on black friday. I should really let them out more. Well, if you managed to read all of this nonsense then thanks, and I appreciate your concern, or interest, or boredom, or whatever it might be that would keep to read this dribble. As always, I welcome your comments (except for spammers, that’s getting old).

Day 11(ish)

Feels a bit of throwback to my search for a good stock photo then call it a wrap days. Oh well, I suppose you could argue an eye for concepts… or just chalk it up to time or laziness, whatever. (edit. apparently I spelled solitude wrong, /shrug)

GAAA! Why did I pick ‘thoughts’ as a daily theme. Anyway, here’s day 7. I’m kinda wondering if maybe like one big project a week would be better than this 5-10min daily thing, well I mean, I know the longer project would probably look better, but which one would help me grow more. Maybe I need to start reading again… Anyway, here it is.
Day 6…7?

My daily design #5… though I skipped a day or two, ugh who knows. Anyway here’s the latest, let’s just call it day 6, as if I started on time anyway. Some of these designs look thrown together… they somewhat are since I normally give myself 5-15min to do them, though there is some honest thoughts behind them. As long as I’m typing, this has been more challenging that I expected, partially in the discipline of doing it daily but more in having to sit down and just come up with an idea, a design, based on a loose theme with almost no parameters, all in a quick timeframe. Anyway, day 6 (sorta).
Day 4 (late)

Forgot about it yesterday… but I suppose I can just do two today. I’m finding the “thoughts” theme challenging… oh well.
