So...
.
.
What do I say, for heaven sake??
.
Anyway, It was #internationalwomensday 2 days ago,
I celebrate y'all women, y'all are wonderful and we wouldn't survive the world without you...
PS: I'm neither an anti-feminist or a pro feminist, I'm just celebrating y'all, cos truly you're wonderful and beautiful and I value y'all, who wouldn't (cannot be argued)
.
.
Now to the main "koko" of this write up, I designed a social media graphic (that's it below) because of the day and to celebrate with the women in my own way as a creative designer.
.
But was it really in my plan to do a design??
.
.
Well I can't say a straightforward NO.
But in all honesty, It was the least of my plans. I mean it crossed my mind, but it was the least of my plans.
.
.
Why??
.
Didn't I cherish the women?? Well I just mentioned up there that I value women. Then Why??
.
Many genuine reasons amongst others...
1. Light issues, my laptop was just at about 70% and I knew I wasn't gon' have light to charge for the next few days not because anything is wrong with electricity where I stay, but it's just the normal routine here where I school.
.
2. I needed the laptop for my project research, so I had to sacrifice one for one...
.
3. I had no inspiration at all and also no network to get inspiration from Pinterest or other places.
My creative bloc was fully sponsored by my 50% laziness and 50% external factors beyond my control...😂 😂
.
.
Then suddenly...
.
At around 2pm...
.
Like a mighty rushing wind but fast, an idea hit me while taking my bathe to have an afternoon nap or sleep 😂...
.
It was a design that I saw in morning, not like I saw it cos it was a quick swipe and it was gone...
.
But I could visualize what I saw and the urge to design was very strong despite me being at risk of not being able to use my laptop for my project, I started designing (btw, this why you should hire me for your design cos it takes priority btw, also, I'm currently in school working on my project...
.
I didn't have a clear picture of what the design will be as I possibly don't have a clear picture of what the design I want to do for today Mothering Sunday will look like cos I'm feeling exhausted and I don't know if I will do one.
.
Anyway, as I continued it got clearer...
.
And, lo and behold, I made something.
.
.
The thing is, it wasn't easy, picking up my laptop to design cos I had to go through many hurdles so as also it isn't always easy to design or even do life...
.
As a matter of fact it is not always easy, personally I believe, sometimes, even the things we claim we enjoy get's had to do sometimes but we just have to do it.
.
You might not want to do it but as #Nike said, #JustDoIt
.
Or perhaps I'm just some lazy dude...
.
.
If you ever felt this way please do share in the comment section or I'll just conclude that I'm damn lazy.
