My Pursuit of Happyness or Rather...

Why does Firefox hate me so?

So my portfolio website is finally up and running. With little knowledge and skill, I was able to muster up a website. This would be the second time building a website from scratch and I still come across the same problem. Every web browser has no issues with my site, but Firefox seems to have a vendetta against me. I just don't know how to fix it. Eventually, I'll have someone take a look at it and aid me in eliminating this problem. But other than that check out my work; peep it at: www.shake-the-can.com (best view in any browser except firefox)

Graduating a quarter early, I get a jump start in my "pursuit of happyness", or practically, a job that supports myself. Like Will Smith's character, I am seeking an opportunity to "shine" my creative talents and put it to use to support myself. But man the job market is tough. Searching, ciphering, assessing, applying, waiting. This is going to be a long game of persistence. It's such a weird paradigm shift, this weird twilight zone of student/unemployed. I have never felt so stricken with anxiety and uneasiness. It's getting harder and harder for me to sleep at night; restlessness surges through my mind. With so much time in my hands, it sifts right through. It's incredibly frustrating to put in a lot of effort and time job searching and applying to waiting for a reply back from employers. It's a bit unnerving; I suppose that's what keeps me up. I just wished to be hired right now. hahaha

But I am glad that I am blessed with an internship doing graphic illustrations. I guess it keeps me busy for the most part of the day. Ugh.. hopefully a full-time job offer arises soon; the imminent future has never felt so dreary.

Well... back to the lab and work out some art stuff.
