i have been coding for the past 3ish(?) hours trying to get my textboxes to align on a page the way i was imagining it. it was the most tedious thing i'd ever done - back and fourth, running the code and then checking the css file to see where i could fix stuff, trial and error and trial again. i'm surprised i didn't give up, but my brain wasn't gonna let me do anything else until i fixed it. and so i did.
i adore web design because it's one of the most gratifying hobbies i've picked up - it's so easy to want to bash your head into the wall after the 43rd try, but it's fulfilling and so rewarding when you finally get it right.

I actually have a portfolio with most of my creative projects! I've done brandings, worked with creative coding and AI, made some fonts, created some packaging concepts and the list goes on :D
I mainly work as a product designer, so when i've started studying art direction on the master programm in my alma mater, it gave me an opportunity to explore my creativity and learn more about visual metaphors and ways of conveying ideas. It felt like breathing the fresh air of freedom, and i liked to work on passion projects when you aren't limited with the demands of your customer.

used the five metal shop one last year but it seemed a little too precious and i never ended up ripping any of the pages. got this one for 4$ in chinatown and it's a fun morning ritual. i use the torn pages for random notes each day, and thinking i'll give my friends the ones of their bday. maybe i'll finally learn the lunar calendar this year!

i met some of my now dearest friends during 2020 in a leftist asian american podcast discord server while we listened to our own diy radio and had book club and thought too hard about things. it is one of the best things that’s happened in my life. also just a very great origin story to recount irl.
