You're welcome, it's cool to see someone doing a comic about planetary health.^^  Reminds me I need to start bringing my cloth bags to the grocery store, among other things.

The most amazing thing I get from drawing this comic is how it changed the everyday habits of my readers - they started to be more environmentally aware and tell others to do so. ^^

well, had a couple interviews, but not much so far.  Actually recently I've been working with one of my teachers to improve my portfolio, and because he said most of it is fairly mediocre, I've kind've suspended the search until I get some better stuff out.  I plan to keep applying to the odd things that pop up on LinkedIn and the graphic design job boards, but until I get something that really stands out and will give me a chance, I've stopped emailing the studios.
I am working at Ross part time so that's giving me a bit of income for now.
Also, I've been starting to ponder getting a bachelor's in Illustration from UC Denver.  Still doing research and deciding if I want to risk taking out loans on something that is not a lucrative field.  So yeah.  And how is life in your part of the world?

Still working on the internship and work. I am planning to finish the internship before summer. I am planning on applying for schools to see if I can even get in. If I do not, I will see if I can get some patient contact experience in addition to the laboratory experience I have been getting.

I hope you have more luck with your search.

I would imagine you'd get in to schools just fine.  And by the way, did you have to take out loans to get your bachelor's?  I ask because i've been considering getting a bachelor's in illustration but I'm worried about having to pay back the loans I would need.

DreadstormFirewalker In reply to farunderheaven [2014-03-09 21:13:56 +0000 UTC]

I did get a loan. As far as I see it, getting a loan is almost unavoidable, unless you get a lot of scholarships. I will probably be paying off loans for a while.

wellllllll............... getting a job at some point.  I'm applying to all the usual stuff, stores, restaurants, etc.  so i can be making money while doing the long-haul search for a career job.  

is the internship in addition to the lab job you were doing or are they the same thing? 

sounds like you had fun, are they getting a crap-ton of snow on your side of the mountains?

DreadstormFirewalker In reply to farunderheaven [2014-01-16 02:04:45 +0000 UTC]

Good luck. You would probably be able to get a job like that here, but there, well that's harder.

It is separate. The internship is voluntary and through a community college.

We have gotten some snow, mainly in the mountains, but not too much.

Well I think there are more aspiring artists here, so it might be harder to get a job in that regard, but other jobs are easier to get.

Good luck, it's always good to get interviews.

I'm here.  I feel super busy, my teacher got me a few free clients, so I've been working on their stuff.  Though the one I'm currently working on wants to pay me later on since I will be finishing a series of posters for them into spring and summer.  And I'm making a website for myself, after that I need to print my portfolios, make a wordpress site, and get visible on linkedin and other sites like that.

And just finishing up at Anderson Farms, which is why I'm supposed to be panicking about finding a job, my teacher wants me to start doing that before I graduate.

let's see, and I just signed up for being on the tech team at the church.  so, lots to do but as is characteristic of me i still find time to avoid all my work.

but it'll be exciting if i can get a job.

how about you?

Yeah, I get along well with my coworkers, but we are not really friends outside of work or anything. Plus, it's kind of hard. There is a high turnover, so we end up having a lot of new faces all of the time. I haven't moved out yet. I will likely move out when I get accepted to a graduate school of some kind.

I could see that being rough, work is so much nicer when you know your coworkers, so if you hate them at least you know how to deal with them.  and then if you like them you get to be friends during work.

and as for graduate school, me and my little associate's degree cheer you on.  though i'm thinking about getting a bachelor's in illustration if i'm lucky enough to have the money and time for that.  are you applying to different schools then, or are you waiting for a bit?

and how's the family?  both of your siblings should be in college by now, right?
