Week 3 EOC: Where are you now and where are you going?

A common thread in my life lately has been the, “life talks,” I have been having with my father. Now I am having them with my friends. It seems like we are all in the same point in out lives. We’ve all come down this winding road and are about to come to an intersection of paths. Prior to a year ago, I was not sure of what I would be doing or how I was going to get there. It occurred to me that I am going to have to take the pencil and draw my own way. Sure Career Services can be a tool, but it is ultimately up to me to make my professional career happen.



This past year, I have really tried to get my act together, professionally and financially. I started free-lancing. Some projects I do pro-bono hoping they will call me back every year and maybe in the future, they made need me for something else. I have also started doing projects outside of class to expand my demo reel. I am currently working on the beginning stages of a commercial for a new restaurant in town. My goal is to get my name out there and be in the position to always be working on something.



It would be nice to take all my work to next level. That requires capital. I do not have much of to spare at the moment. As the famous saying goes, “Life happened.” I am working towards being in a better financial position to advance my career. It is coming along. By next year, my goal is to only have one bill I am responsible for, and that is the almighty student loan.
