I work at the public library and today had to call multiple libraries for a “shelf check” [see if a book showing as available is on the shelf], because the patron was willing to go to whichever branch had the book available, but a few copies couldn’t be found. So while I was on hold, they helped me pass the time in an unusual (but not bad) way [conversation is edited for clarity]:
Them “Can I ask you some questions? There are no wrong answers”
Me “Sure”
Them “What color do you think of with the number 4”
Me “Light blue? But I was also staring right at the application form as you asked that” [which is light blue]
Them “Okay look at me. What color for August?”
Me “Green”
Them “Me too! The letter J”
Me “Red”
Them “My voice”
Me “Soft pink”
Person with them “What about mine?”
Me “Sky blue”
Them “Do you have a dog?”
Me “Yes”
Them “What color is your dog’s bark?”
Me “Umm... she doesn’t bark...”
Them “Really?? Whoa. What about when someone lies to you?”
Me “Ugly yellow”
Them “Ooo mine is blood red. Do you think people can have more than one persona or personality in their heads?”
Me “Yes”
Them “How many do you have?”
Me “Mmm I think three”
Them “Have you always had them or did they develop over time?”
Me “Either they developed or I wasn’t aware of them for a long time.”
Person with them “Never heard that answer before, but that makes sense!”
Them “Are all three the same gender and sexuality?”
Me “Actually, yes and yes. I think I’m lucky that I’ve never questioned the gender assigned to me at birth. It’s definitely cis privilege.”
Them “It’s cool you’re aware of that. Do you think simultaneously?”
Me “Do I what?”
Them “How many “tabs” are open in your brain?”
Me “Oh my god. ALL the tabs. So many tabs!”
Them “Can you read people’s energy when you walk into a room?”
Me “Sometimes”
Them “Do you get overwhelmed with large groups of people?”
Me “More often then not”
*At this point, the book they want has been found, and I give them the address of the branch*
Them “So you’re a really strong empath!”
Me “I’ve been told that’s a blessing and a curse. Do you need anything else?”
Them “Nope, and thanks for indulging my questions!”
Me “No problem! Have a good day!”

Design and Color
There are times when I'm designing and I'm completely lost or have no clue where to start with a color scheme. This is obvious if I am designing for an existing brand that has already established it, but when approaching projects from scratch I do think "what colors am I going to choose?".
I think most of the color explorations comes out of exploring and experimenting. I write this because I luckily found a lovely color combination that works perfectly in context for a small school project I am currently designing. When things comes together like this, seamlessly, I start to realize how color combinations are coming to me effortlessly. Is it because my skills are improving as a designer? I think yes, and they will only improve and get better from here on out.
