You seem incredibly knowledgeable, I'm excited to see what you have in store!

[@quierodiaries]

Ahh, I'm excited to keep creating!

I have a 9 to 5 doing absolutely nothing related to what I have my degrees in lol It may be tough but you should be proud that you're doing all this! I feel so many people get so scared to start their dreams. I unfortunately spent too much these last few weeks but I am def keeping your shop in mind for future shopping (: I want the comida en la casa tote lol

[@quierodiaries]

Haha, so many people have jobs unrelated to their degrees! I majored in graphic design and just kinda stuck with it 😅. Except I guess I added a marketing and ecomm component to it with the shop lol.

I've got a 9-5 in motion design right now and this job market is no joke 😬Hope you get an interview soon~

[@quierodiaries]

Motion design, how cool!! And yep, it's definitely tricky out there rn. 😅
