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. =]
