Just when you think you've hit a brick wall and can't find a way around it, life throws you... well, throws you over it.

My lack of motivation for school has abruptly ended since I found out I will be graduating on May 1st, opposed to in the summer. I have been discussing my Specs Howard credit situation with my adviser for two years now, and nothing had been done. I was told I would get a max. of 6 credits transferred to apply to some communication elective credits. The situation was just recently resolved, and as it turns out, I'm getting a whopping 15 credits, which sets me ahead an entire semester. Now I just need to get a walk-in appointment with my Arts & Sciences adviser so he can work on my audit. I'm praying that everything works out and I can be on track. I am now BEHIND as a senior since I had no warning of being done so quickly! I am going to hope for the best and work my butt off to make sure everything is completed on time.

I'm also hoping to intern again this summer. I know how tough it is out there, and I also realize that I could always use more experience in the field of production. I don't just want to be an average university graduate walking into a new job, I want to be amazing at what I do. I am so excited to put myself out there and be a complete sponge to anyone who wants to share their knowledge. The place I interned at in 2006 has a new branch for specifically post-production and I would love to go back and work for them again.

In other news, I recently had a hair appointment with Lindsay and told her I was thinking about going darker.. so I made an impulsive decision and got it dyed reddish/dark brown and I'm loving it so far. My family was a bit shocked at first because "I'm a blonde girl" but I needed a change. =]

Mid-Autumn Update

Life has been so stressful these past few weeks. This is by far my most difficult semester at school ever. It's crazy what we do to ourselves just to get through school. Last week was midterms, this week starts my new job at Big Deal's Sports Bar, and I'm trying to juggle homework, studying, video editing, and maintaining relationships all at the same time.

I can't believe it's already November! Before you know it, it's going to be Thanksgiving.. and then Christmas right after. Looking forward to breaks from school to be with family, but not looking forward to the weather West Michigan is doomed to have.

Josh's parents left this morning to move to Los Angeles. It's crazy. Now Josh has the house to himself. If you're reading this, please say a prayer for his dad to get a job that he enjoys out west.

Last weekend was kind of "blah" as far as Halloween festivities. I stayed in Kalamazoo Thursday night, but came home Muskegon Friday afternoon. I had a lot of fun on Thursday. Brooklyn, Kaitlyn, Katie and I went to Monaco Bay so that we could have a place to wear our costumes that we threw together last minute. We also hung out with some friends and played catch-phrase and card games.



Lastly, our family has received some horrible news this past week. My cousin's husband has a rare brain tumor, and they are still waiting on a for-sure prognosis. They say he has anywhere from 3-8 years, and they have two beautiful, amazing little twin boys. PLEASE, if you could, send some positive thoughts or auras their way to keep their hearts uplifted. We are all pulling for him.

I hope you all had a fabulous Halloween. Looking forward to the Holidays already! <3
