Graphic Design

Welcome to my website.
Heres some stuff about me;

I chose to study Graphic design, because i've always been an artist. I never want to grow to dislike art by making it my career. Im scared of that happening, so I keep it as a hobby so I can continue to enjoy it. I like Graphic Design because it is something I can enjoy doing that is still within my range of skills that I can make a career out of.

I'm taking this class because it is a requirement. Im not good with coding, or web design, so I will do my best to make the website work, and not look horrendous. I want to learn how to navigate code and understand it so that I will remember it this time. I think its good base information to have, because I will inevitably as a graphic designer be asked to code something for a website, or edit some website. (I want to learn the solid basics on how to navigate around the code for a website, so that when I inevitably have to make edits to whatever company website i’m editing in my low paying vague post graduation job I won’t explode the website and break the code

Outside of class and classwork I’m still burnt out from last semester and my summer class. Right now my "fun" is rewatching tv shows, hanging out with my friends or going to shows with my partner. When I mentally recover and have a brain again, I like to crochet, paint, and workshop my characters. My responsibilities consist of; keeping my apartments common space clean and functional, working for my internship, spending time with my family and pets, as well as spending time with my friends. I think friendships count as part of responsibilities, because if they are not maintained they break or disappear. I also have four classes, not counting the internship, to do work for which keeps me very busy.

Im from Anne Arundel County, and I lived in Maryland all my life. Despite that I had never tried crab till I was 17 and I hated it. I also didn't know I was three blocks from the water till I was 16 because of all the houses lining the river, making all the beaches private and not accessable to the public. The houses and communities were gated and tree lined so I didn't know until I started driving and used google maps and Waze, and then I noticed the body of water less than a mile away from my house.
