a bit too busy

When you get your best illustration gig ever, three days before your entrance exam, do you refuse? Hell no! The work in question being banner-illustrations and banner design for one of the biggest (the biggest?) webportals in Finland, which is going through a complete site redesign soon.
A friend comments that the thing architecture school left me with seems to be the ability to deal with crazy deadlines. I think it’s more about learning the freelance desiger ethic: when you’ve got work flowing in, you push other things aside and do it. And when there’s no work, you resume other things. Flexibility, to some extent.
The entrance exams start tomorrow. Good thing I haven’t had time to be nervous yet. After Tuesday there will be another cut and only half will be picked for the final stage, which will go on from Wednesday to Friday. Yikes! Wish me luck! I will get back to work now…
