he said he doesn't want to look at it until next year, so we didn't really go into details. chances are i won't be skilled enough to do what he's after anyway, so i guess there's no harm in talking. web design isnt really my area, i just picked it up because our dept needed a site makeover.

i'm a bit stressed about it because i dropped my old job because i couldn't keep it up anymore. so i don't really want to start doing something else. (if i do go back to work, my old place has kept my position open and it was good pay for a student so i'd definitely return there).

the thing is i don't know why we went pro bono anyway. i had always intended to pay the full fee ($206) but he gave me a discount to $100. then last week he gave me $50 back and said to go do something nice for myself. and then after the next session (i saw him twice last week) he said we'd go pro bono from now on.

i know i'm not exactly rolling in money but certainly i have saved enough to pay for this without having to worry right now. i have tried to pay him but he's been refusing, and i feel a bit odd about it. i get that he is being nice, i just feel awkward accepting it when i'm sure someone else could use it more.
