A New Chapter
Hey there everyone!
I apologize for the lack of posting for the last month or so. Due to my slacking, I have plenty of updates to relay so here we go!
"Ahhhh" - that my dear friends is a sigh of relief for I have, indeed, successfully completed my Senior Project. If you don't believe me, because I had doubts myself, then visit this page to view my project in its glorious entirety. I was very pleased with the end results as were my professors and Ericka Bennett from Adventures in Missions. They are planning to use the materials and begin printing them as the funds become available! It's very exciting to see my work be put into use instead of collecting dust in a portfolio.
With that said, I am graduating on the 19th which would be in exactly 4 days and 12 hours. To go ahead and answer your question I would like to state "No. I do not have a job yet." I have applied and inquired with several places such as: Speak Creative in Memphis, TN Harding Creative in Memphis, TN Harvest Creative in Memphis, TN Midtown Church in Atlanta, GA to name just a few. Obviously I would like to end up in Memphis but I'm pretty open so, if you know of anyone in need of a Graphic Designer, please keep me in mind!
In the meanwhile I will be in Auburn until I secure some form of employment. Thankfully there's a grace period with my parents ha ha! To be honest it is slightly overwhelming trying to find a job and the state of the economy isn't exactly working toward anyone's favor who just graduated college. Even so, something will work out.
Also to update from previous posts I was accepted to be a Roadie for Invisible Children. Crazy, I know! But after several days of consulting about a dozen different individuals wiser than myself and plenty of prayer I concluded that being on the road for 6 months just simply wasn't where I needed to be. Of course it was very difficult to turn down, but I didn't have a peace about accepting the position. I also thought that I have been working for four and a half years on this degree and I am ready to put it into practice which I would not be able to do while on the road. Regardless of my decision, I still greatly support this organization and who knows - maybe some other opportunities will come my way that involves IC. You never know!
I have one more final left on Tuesday then I am officially finished with my college education. Wow. It feels like I just started my Freshman year and in other ways it feels like I have been in college for 10 years. Either way, a new chapter is opening up in my life and I have no idea what the pages hold. Really. No. Idea. Thankfully God knows and He has a plan which is a great relief even when I feel the pressures after answering "Do you have a job yet?" about 20 times.
In the meanwhile, I plan to enjoy some time during the holidays here in Auburn. I will also be traveling to Louisiana shortly after Christmas so I am very excited about that time we have planned. I will be sure to keep you in the know concerning my job quest!
As always, thanks for stopping by!
