It's been quite some time

But I'm still alive! :)

Well, at least for the time being! I have SO much crap to do!

It's internship time and lately I've been buckling down trying to get things squared away. I've been neglecting my friends and fam. :( Trust me, I'm not the person to place work over family. I'd much rather be homeless than friendless. Either way, I have to keep thinking forward. My entire reasoning behind school AT ALL, is my future children. This is all for them. My degree is useless if not used to obtain a job that would help me feed and nurture my future children. If I found out that I was not able to bare children, I'd probably drop out right now and find a job where I can work with young artists. But as of now, I got food to put on future tables....So its off to work I go!

I've been working nonstop (sort of) for the last 2.5 weeks on finalizing my portfolio. I showed it to my department chair yesterday and I am apparently WAY behind. In addition to needing to update my portfolio, I also need to complete my new website. I've been working on it for the last week. I've completed all the links, but I'm having buttloads of difficulty in the coding for the portfolio picture viewer. I am very rusty in my html skills. Luckily I'm at school and I can get help with that.

In addition to all that crap, I still have lots of work to do for my portfolio day review, which I need to be ready for in 14 days!!!!

The biggest problem I'm facing now is money. I'm broke! Well, payday is tomorrow...however, I have a $100 commitment fee to pay CCS and I also need to buy ink,print business card, make personalized portfolio cds, and print several process books.

Today I got a call for a modeling gig for sole sisters this weekend. The job pays 15 dollars an hour for 5 hours of work, and It's a relatively easy job. The only downfall is that I miss out on 5 hours of working time (and possibly more for prep time for the modeling.)

Ah....the life of a CCS college student.....A busy one indeed...


I'm just going to keep my best foot forward and know that I have a bright future ahead!
