Freelancer’s New Avatar

Programmer

Working from home isn’t always boring for a freelancer since it allows for the freedom of working on all your secret “design” projects and more importantly it allows you to lead a much natural life in some remote corner of your room unlike other slithering little weasel geek lords. As a part of their daily routine, freelancers usually get up early to water there weed plantation. Following which they set course for hunting vermin’s; occasionally accompanied by their trust worthy Hatori Hanzo’s Swords. Their afternoons are a bit milder with most of the time spent waiting behind bushes, trying to find a programmer for designing 3-D human hybrid bodies. Then they pounce upon 2 yr old passersby’s stealing their candy or ice cream cones. Their evenings are spent rolling and lighting up joints with their trustworthy vermin slaves. In the calm hour of the night, sitting in a small time hotel, freelancers can be found architecting their plans to unleash a brutal force of 3D animated vermin soldiers to rid the world of all evilness, unkindness.

Subterranean Homesick Graphic Design Designer

Psychedelic Advert: All you graphic design designers don’t let this post dishearten you. I’m sure your life is filled with much more excitement and challenges.

This is just my life and for the last few weeks, it has been pretty down! My routine- up…work…lunch…work…chat…still working….down! And invariably the up is just three hours away from the down time. I’ve finished more than a year away from home and all of a sudden I’m beginning to miss it a lot! It seems like ages since I last saw my parents! My only social contact is with the bunch of guys and sometimes the girls in my office, who are busy with their own work anyways. There’s a joke going around that our biological clock here runs on USA time which, in a way is true.

I just absolutely need to get back home, real fast….at warp speed even. Have a lot of catching up to do. Graphic designing can wait, I just can’t.

It’s Time to Wake Up

Freelancing Projects

I’ll be 35 in a few months. My friends and colleagues tell me that it’s a major crossover in life. They are telling me that I’m done with half of what I had been promised by the almighty and I should reflect on my life and things I’ve achieved by sitting under the tree of wisdom where Newton discovered gravity. Life is interesting when you compare two different points in time. Last year this time, I had proper desk job with fat pay cheque and benefits. Today I work on freelance design projects.  Doesn’t sound like an upgrade? Well, today I’m actively pursuing something I like doing instead of passively consuming something I didn’t enjoy. We get so caught up in our day to day life that we forget about being. Don’t forget what Tyler Durden said:”It’s your life and it’s ending one minute at a time”. So just ask yourself, are you doing what you truly wanted to do with your life?
