Week 4 of My 2020 Quarantine Challenge!

✨Thu✨ What is the best advice you’ve ever been given (e.g. from a teacher of friend)?

this was actually really difficult to think of and i wasn’t really sure what to put but then i remembered this story my year 6 (age 10-11) teacher gave me that is kinda the only advice that i can think of and its not very profound but it has stayed with me.

basically, my teacher had an older sister and when that sister turned 18, she basically got loads of letters from credit card companies telling her to get one of their credit cards and to cut a long story short she basically got a credit card from all of them and was using ALL of them. as you can probably imagine this was not a great situation to be in and her parents were furious but eventually she got it sorted out. 

i learnt a few things from this that i still think of to this day:

saving money and being financially smart is important 

don’t get loads of credit cards 

people will try to sell you stuff and make it sound really good cause that is their job, so actually look at what they are selling you and ask yourself is it worth it

I made this concert poster for a project focusing on typographical hierarchy.  I’m a little mad that the prof wanted posters only in black and white or greyscale, so I included one of 15 iterations in this post.  The one on the left is what my poster would have looked like if color was allowed.  I tried matching the colors to the gradient on the Love Yourself: Her album.

Also, RIP to all the fun events that have been cancelled due to Covid-19 :((

J and I were planning on going to 2 concerts (one was a small gig with his friends’ band), and they would have been my first experience, but, oh well.  We’re driving out to Bodega Bay for our 3rd anniversary!!  These monthly anniversaries have been giving us something to celebrate during this weird time.

Stay safe everyone 💜
