Through My Eyes

So right after I built my rough portfolio on a wordpress template, I decided I needed to build an actual site before sending out any more internship applications.

So I learned a bit of dreamweaver from lynda.com (you’ll need a membership, which MIT gives students access to). Coupled that with my rudimentary skills of css and html, and extra help from my programmer-savvy friends.

I almost have the home page done…just need to do everything else on the site. Hooray. Have a taste of two days worth of work.

I finished my portfolio and sent off my first application to a firm. Crossing fingers is cheesy, tacky, and superstitious…but I did it anyways.

One down and…god knows how many more. I’m actually terrified at the thought of applying to places only to find out no design firm will take me. It’s a good thing I decided not to apply to architecture internship this year…I think the rejection postcards they always send would have defeated me.

Also, I have a very rough portfolio website up for employers to look. You can view it here: jeffreyhlin.wordpress.com (just don’t steal any of my images please…)
