Live Happy: My Heima Internship
Unlike most of my blockmates who are done with their internship, I'm only halfway through my second one (we each need 2 internships). I've already finished my interior design internship in a relatively new design company (Mondo Design Studio) -- which, I realize, I didn't get the chance to blog about (Oops). We're also supposed to apply for any design-related internship. I went for graphic design at Heima!
I think I first heard about Heima through Tumblr. It was probably around 2010, or 2011 when Cubao X seemed like such a far-fetched place which a special breed of people (read: hipsterz) gravitated towards. I've always admired Heima's unique and quirky design approach. So I'm really happy to have this opportunity to learn from them.
This internship is actually a nice change of pace in my week because aside from the monotony of school, and the road, and chores, I now have a 10-7 job. I mean, not that I wake up with rainbows and butterflies during workdays, but... it's a different and welcome dynamic. (And I think, I'm really excited to work now! As opposed to being deathly afraid and insecure before.)
It was my first time to have "work" on the 31st, so that's where I spent my Halloween!

I'm not really an inspirational quotes kind of person. But most of my work there right now is typography, which I have never done. I've also never touched Adobe Illustrator so... It's been quite a learning experience.

We were both too "lazy" to put our make-up on, so we ended up as puppets instead.

Happy Halloween from Heima Brixton! :)

Thanks Ate Patti!! So nice seeing you btw, less awkward meet-up success! HAHA!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's always kind of weird to be coming in on days that used to be "holidays." Like on birthdays or something. (OR IS THIS JUST ME)
Thanks! I actually kind of worked for this. Haha!
