I had a very busy week this week at Pivot & Pilot! My week was filled with more copywriting and site design, which I am still really enjoying. I’ve been learning a lot about web design, especially from one of my coworkers, who’s currently taking a UX\/UI course at BrainStation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had an especially chaotic day on Wednesday because I was tasked to do a project that had to be finished EOD , and the main designer of that project was off that whole day. I was nervous having to make a lot of design decisions (especially because these were all going straight to the developer… to be built on a real live site..). Working in another designer’s file is also nerve-racking because everyone has their own system of sorting their layers in their files, and I didn’t want to mess up all her previous designs. To top it all off, I had to work on all of it in Adobe XD, a program I never learned to use. Luckily, I managed to pull through and learned a lot through the process. Adobe XD is actually a great program and I’m glad I now know how to use it!! I’m still Team Figma though \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sat in my bed to do work for a bit. I don’t have many available workspaces in my house, but I still try to change up my working environment once in a while. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After that exhausting day, I took my two baby nephews to the playground outside my house to take a much-needed break and some fresh air!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was getting late and the sun had nearly set already, but the sky was still such a beautiful blue.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Towards the end of the week, I spent a majority of the day remaking the mobile site for P&P’s updated site with Joelle. Even though we weren’t in the same room, it was still really nice working on something with someone else simultaneously. I love Figma and Slack so much!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working on mobile site design. Surprisingly took a long while to do (and we’re still not finished!) but I had a lot of fun nonetheless \ud83d\ude42<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For lunch on Thursday, I made some wontons and watched some Netflix. I’ve been really enjoying watching k-dramas for the past few months and have been binging one after the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Currently watching “Hospital Playlist”, an interesting k-drama about a group of friends who are all doctors at the same hospital. They also love music and started their own band. I don’t know how I feel about this show so far, but if you’re looking for an amazing k-drama, I highly recommend “Reply 1988” on Netflix!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, I’ll finish this blog post with a weekly cat update. I planted “cat grass” from a pack of seeds I picked up at a home hardware store. They grew quickly in the span of a week, but my cats are totally uninterested in it. I’m sad about that, because I bought these seeds specifically so my cats would stop chewing on all my other plants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
