Reunited and It feels so Good!!!


I feel I haven't been on here in ages... Please don't think I've forgotten about you guys... but let me tell you my motivation is stronger than ever... Graduation is only weeks away and still no job offers... but I've recently received an email about this internship in Chicago and Washington D.C at 1am last night... and this opportunity would be GREAT for me... Other than that I did a piece on this African Food Fair at my school and it was the best piece I think I've ever done... My camera and writing skills are really improving... Well once I hear from anybody you'll be the first to know!!!! Until then I'm still working to get Closer to my Dreams

Bad News



If there's one thing I already knew about my profession is that it won't be easy... but I'm up for the challenge... I received an email yesterday stating although my skills are impressive the company will be looking for other candidates for the job... I must admit I was a lil disappointed at first... but my drive to succeed has only increased.. One down many more left to go... Until then I'm still working to get Closer to my Dreams!!!

Rocky Road



Had to work another Early shift at the Radio Station today... I don't know why, but I'm beyond exhausted.. And I actually went to sleep quite early last night... Well this week is Dreading midterm week so I've been studying very hard for this particular class.. Laws and Policy (not easy)... It's required to graduate so I must let go of my senioritis and study hard... I would love to have some really good news today about Harpo Studios or even any other job/internship leads, but I haven't received any calls... Maybe sprints acting up again lol... I can say that life's has been taking me on this crazy path... IN I LOVE IT!!! Well until then I'm still working to get closer to my dreams

Very Proud



If you don't know by now... I work at WSIU Radio Station and have been for two years now... Sometimes I work the evening 3-7 shift, but two days out of the week I work at 5am..YES!!! I said 5am... The only student on campus at that time... The way I see it... I'm the one getting the upper hand in this... This morning I was determined to at least apply for an internship and a job(WGN Radio/TV and Integrated Media)... I've accomplished that plus more... I now have a list of FIVE more opportunities that I will apply for by the end of the day... that's if my laptop will be a good girl and work for me... Until then I'm still working to get Closer To My Dreams!!!!

Motivated


Today I woke up feeling GREAT!!!! I'm feeling so motivated to just do whatever I have to do to make it n this world... Regardless of the lecture my professor gave today about (RECESSION) n how bad things are right now... There's just a part of me that pushes all the negativity aside. Other than that I must thank my friends and family and that special someone that motivates me n brings nothing but positive energy my way... My goal for today is to narrow out more News stations I would like to apply too...3 months till graduation... Until then I'm still working to get Closer To My Dreams!!!
