Temporary Working Table

Published by Kima Rodriguez

Working/Study table is essential, especially when you’re working with computers or laptops or taking down notes and sketching. It is hard to focus when you don’t have the right table to work and become productive. Recently, I have decided to transition my career to User Experience Research. I spent most of my time with my laptop because I enrolled in some UX-free courses and started playing around using its tools, such as Figma and Adobe XD. Unfortunately, I don’t have a study/working table to set up my learning productivity system, yet I decided to improvise a table that can be useful to my learning journey. I used to have a study/working table before, but my sister borrowed it because she is currently working remotely. I don’t have a plan to get it back because her work is more important than mine. Since I am still studying and practicing UX, getting a new working/study table isn’t necessary. Yet, I set that I will be rewarding myself with a new table once I finish the free courses …

My first WIREFAME!!

Published by Kima Rodriguez

I have so many ideas in my mind but the only thing that stops me is confidence. Coming from a different field of career to Technology and Design field is a huge step to take. I am so overwhelmed with every idea and output of what other people in these fields are sharing and posting. I don’t even know if I am on the right track but I am sure that I am motivated and inspired to do tasks related to UX Design. I created my first wireframe using the famous UX design tool, Figma. I am familiarizing myself with how to use it and the different techniques about it. I am excited to finish this case study that I am working on. I already have my user’s persona and other details about the user. I hope I am doing them right. ♥️

My UX Research Journey

Hello, bloggy! Sorry for not updating you these past few weeks. I got infected by the coronavirus the past weeks, and too much rest is needed for me to recover.The 14-day quarantine is draining, but thanks to God, I am finally recovered! However, I am still taking my medicines to feel better and flu-free. Since I am still staying at home recovering from my cough because I am not yet allowed to go out, I research different tech skills that I want to learn and focus on. I came across UX Design.

This UX journey is the right path because I enjoy every step and process I encounter while studying UX design. I made a …

2 Best Online Courses Platforms

Published by Kima Rodriguez

During the pandemic season, our travel adventures are affected, and as a result, we spend most of our time at home with our loved ones. Spending a lot of time at home is crucial because it’s time-consuming. After all, I felt so unproductive and boring. Since I was planning for my career change, I stumbled on these two platforms that caught my attention. I’m not saying that these two platforms are the best among others, but instead, these two helped me choose the career that I am aiming for. I enrolled in the Writing Your First Novel course by David Wheeler at Coursera and a Blogging for Beginners course by Tyler Speegle at Udemy. These two are free unless you buy their certification. (I’m still planning if I will get a certificate or not) I have a challenging journey with my career, but I will not give up until I become successful.
