My January, Thus Far

Calendar from free-printable-calendar.net


22 days into 2013 and so far, things are going well, and I have a lot to do before I leave the world of community college with my Associate of the Arts degree in May, pending the acceptance of my graduation application.  I have lost a great friend , I dumped a guy I met online (more on him and the other guys in a later post), and really started to consider what I want in my life: a thriving career in journalism/photojournalism. 

Is it possible to become a journalist that takes National Geographic-worthy pictures, know her way around all social media outlets, and can put together a mini documentary using Final Cut Pro?  I do know one thing: I want to sharpen my skills in Photoshop, Flash, and HTML. I have to arrange for those refresher courses on a later date.

I have to go to bed and get up early in the morning to go to my part-time job that I enjoy very much, and it doesn't pay the bills completely.  I am looking for another job that will help my pay the bills on time, and I'm looking for an apartment with a move-in date set for August (pending available funds).

That's it for now. I'm striving for straight A's this semester and working hard with my extracurricular activities.  Good night!
