In 2009 I:
- Quit working for cycle gear
- Started working for The Art Institute Cage ( camera rental )
- Finished school and graduated
- Started working for Walgreens
- Quit Walgreens
- Starting doing a lot of freelance for my new business
- Started working with Crown Alley Films
- Finalized my graduation at the walking ceremony
- Received honors during graduation
- Helped my best friend load he moving truck for Texas
That's actually about all that happened other than very fine detail!
Now here is a few of those details I remember but wish I could forget.
- Old ladies shopping at Walgreens telling me their gonna crack my face because of a coupon
- Being totally stressed out about my final portfolio class
- Wishing I could be out with friends but stuck at home doing homework
- Presenting my portfolio with a lump in my throat while the faculty of The Art Institute listens
- Putting up with all the stupidity of Walgreens
Oh lord, I could go on and on about this but I'd be getting a little too detailed. These were just some of the things that stood out to me.
The best thing about 2009 is that I survived. 2009 will also go down in history as the year that I finished and graduated college. My dad would be proud of me! I never thought I'd go back to school but I guess I fooled myself. The funny thing about it is that I actually loved every minute of it. It was definitely hard at times and there were even times that I wondered how in the world I was going to make it. But I made it! College to me was not about having homework. It was about starting over with a new career. I took each assignment with the perspective of this being work from a client. I was never late for class, never late on my school work, and I never missed a day of school. I had perfect attendance all the way around.
And for that I am very proud of myself!
you go boy! job well done!
