An interesting journey to say the least

Three months.
It has just come to my attention that that is the amount of time since the last post here. It is true, I lost sight of Designkai to some extent in a haze of bizarre journeys and unexpected destinations. While I am well aware most readers don’t actually care about my life or my whereabouts I do still feel it necessary to apologize for the sudden disappearance, particularly so soon after promising a barrage of new articles (a couple of which had actually been written but I have since lost… I am still working on that). Having said that, I am unsure of my time allowances for Designkai in the future, they may not be what I would hope. This is for a few reasons; the most important of which is that I have finished school and been flung semi-nude and shivering into the adult world (reminiscent of the Ren & Stimpy into). Due to this my days of being something of an educated hobo with an income have ceased, instead I am now required to hold a job, a growingly difficult social life, other projects which will hopefully have an income source (unlike this one) and of course, tertiary study… an abyss to where I can see much of my time heading. Although less abyss…y. Abyssy? Abyssie? You know what I mean.

Yes that right, I am now a design student at university. To be more specific I am studying ‘Visual Communications’ an apparently huge part of which is studying communications which are not visual at all. Who would have thought. The upside of this study? Well now I can only assume my articles on this website will have more a more educated insight into design and the world it saturates, particularly from a professional standpoint.

So yes, I am aware that it has been relatively inactive around here and for that I apologize, but at the same time I thank the apparent consistent flow of users through the website. I will attempt to make an effort at bringing this back in a big way, but I really cannot make any promises at this stage because I am still unsure of upcoming workloads, otherwise Designkai will probably coast along as it has in the last 3 months.
