This week speaker was Andrew Nedimyer and honestly, this is the best guest speaker we have had so far in my opinion, listening and seeing the work of Andrew was so much fun, he was so engaging and very relatable to us in so many level.
Talking about personal projects, it remind me of my little project call “A photo a day” back in 2016, I did this to motivate myself to go out more, find some activities and capture the moment everyday and post about it on Instagram rather than just being a introvert and make up excuses to avoid go outside and do anything. It was a success through that little project, I got to go out so much more, eat out more, explore the city more, travel more, find more cool activities to do such as, snowboarding, ice skating, water paddling, hiking to new places and get to meet a tons of new friends at that time. I was very please I did that.
Looking forward, I would love to find a special personal project that design related, could be starting to build a strong portfolio, could be getting involve more into the design circle, make more friends in the field etc.
For this, I think I need to set out timeline for myself, first off, I would like to build a simple website for myself where I can upload all my work on it later on, find some good inspirations for it, within this year of 2023, I also want to start looking into some small design business (maybe design candle, tshirt, or even stickers) while I am still in school learning. That would be my plan for my personal project of 2023. I will keep you all update later on. See you later at my next blog.
