What's Going On...

Lots of things are going on really. School is winding down to the end of the Fall semester and Christmas is soon upon us. I've been trying to take a few more professional steps in my school career but to little avail mostly because it seems that email is a little retarded these days. It's hard to contact people when your messages just keep getting bumped to their spam. But I suppose this is all the more reason to start working on said professionalism by getting a new email, keeping up this new blog and sorting out a better portfolio. One of these professional advances that I'm not sure if I've missed out on or not is painting vegetables, fruits, herbs and such for seed packaging. At $50 a pop it sounded like a pretty good idea, but I've been having trouble getting in touch with the guy, and I'm not entirely sure if I gave him what he asked for.

This is what turned out. I feel like I did pretty well considering I don't normally paint like this and it only took me a couple of hours. If nothing else this little job could help me practice. But once again I'm afraid my email might have gone to junk because I haven't heard back from him in over a week. The deadline was the Monday before last and he was supposed to be looking at everything this past Monday.

I have also been considering a Spring internship, but now with only a couple of weeks left before the end of the Semester (maybe less than that) and seeing how stressful this semester has been, I'm thinking it might be better to just take is a little easy in the Spring. If my work study will be anything like this past semester, I'll still be pretty busy. This Summer, however, I am planning to be intern bound for sure. I've been mulling around some plans for a Nashville destination with a couple of friends and I'm hoping and praying things will line up. I think it'll be a great opportunity.
