Recovery.

I'm slowly (but surely) recovering from my cold. I just randomly, all of a sudden, caught a pretty terrible cold on Monday night that prohibited me from working and really, doing anything in general for the past couple days. I really don't like being sick even though it did give me the opportunity to lay in bed and not do anything. But honestly, it really took a toll on me.

I haven't been able to work on stuff as planned. I had such a terrible headache that made even reading difficult and impossible. Today I feel a lot better and went ahead and worked on some visual stuff for the University of British Columbia Model United Nations. They're still looking for applicants to join their amazing staff team. My role was to create some sort of deliverable to urge people to apply. My skills are getting a little rusty but I am really hoping that I'll have more time freed up to really work on these projects.

It turned out to be darker than I thought. But I literally felt like there was a cloud over my head while working on the piece of graphic. Hey, at least it reflects what I was feeling at the time - congestion really isn't a good thing.

Growing up and being independent really isn't easy. Especially when you're somewhat stuck with a low-paying job and doing customer service. I really wish I could easily admit enjoying what I am currently doing. But reality is slowly creeping upon me and I can no longer hide the harsh truth behind the back of my head. I feel so determined to jump out of this situation and you know what? I'm going to keep trying until I achieve something.
