This'll be my last journal entry for a while, been very busy lately, and A LOT has happened since I
really updated my journal, well save for shameless self-promotion HAHA.
October of last year I got out of
Team Manila, after that I went to the US. I'll probably upload a compilation of my TM works here, if my old bosses permit it.
US was boring so I freelanced while I was there, then met a lot of fellow artsy fartsy pussbags via
Emptees - a tee design burlesque snuggery, or whatever it is. Soon after I found the tee medium to be somewhat appealing ergo I dropped web design altogether. Joined
some contests, unluckily got
ripped, luckily
won a bunch of stuff.
Collaborated with everyone too, with tons of collabs still in the works. Will finish soon though. Then did some crazy uploading
see: spamming last Jan-Feb, got my third
Daily Dev on the cute wallpaper thing some days ago. Though late, much thanks to ^
archanN the feature!
After 4 months out, I came back to the Philippines. I still wanted to be full-time freelancer (if that makes any sense) but a 7-month old job offer resurfaced, so I took the job of Senior Designer at
US Auto Parts Network (Philippines) Corporation, errrr an internet marketing / web-related job. Yeah, back to web design, eww. Haha.
So now it's back to WordPress templates, banner ads, icons, web 2.0 ish blah blah. But it turns out that the job is fun, people there are awesome, plus I missed regular monthly salary HAHA.
I still do illustrations though on my spare time. Lots of greenlit side-projects -- working on identity/branding and some collaterals for Graphika Manila 08, designs and merchandise for Panic! At the Disco / Cobra Starship, some top secret stufffff, plus a bunch of freelancing for independent clothing stores and small bands. Shit I'm out of coffee.
