Hello beautiful steemit community, It's 11:25 pm Nigerian time, I should be sleeping by now, but then, the thought of about this time last year filled my mind and I decided to share with my steemit community as it is a beautiful part of my personal diary.
After we were instructed by the school authority of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka in March 2020 to vacate the school as school activities would be suspended due to the corona virus outbreak.
I went home few days after the memo got to us students, days and weeks went bye and things kept becoming worse and tension grew. It was obvious we wouldn't be going back to school at a recent time.
Thoughts of what to do started coming to my mind, online classes were flying around and i told myself I should not allow the opportunity of trying and learning something new pass bye me.
I finally settled with learning graphics, hmmm, it was not funny nor easy but I think I was just motivated my the hunger to learn something new and yes I did. I learnt basic graphics with my android phone, animations and copy writing;though basically. It was a beautiful experience. I would have written it here on steemit but I was not part of the community as at then. I still decided to share today.
Here are some of the designs I tried out
After some time, friends and relatives contacted me to try out something for them, now I had added more practice and became better.
And yes I was paid little amount for doing them. So about today last year, I was on an adventure to being a graphics designer, though not fully into it now, but the experience was worth it.
In all, turn every time to an opportunity to be better.
