The ever constant battle between myself and myself.

So, as I mentioned in a previous blog, school decided to get REAL after spring break. I have been spending much of my time researching the 1880's or Hurricane Katrina.

Enthralling. haha. At first I was dreading these assignments, but after I started them, I have sort begun to fall in love with research. (the kind of love that is really frustrating... I don't know if the Greeks have a word for that kind of love) I love learning! I always have. Reading is the greatest invention ever.

So at the beginning I was just holding myself back from enjoying the endless possibilities of things that I can be good at if only I conquer my laziness. or fears, or procrastination.

Once I got into the groove of this research thing I began to realize that I was the only one who was stopping myself from really excelling at this. I hated writing papers, and I always told myself I was bad at it. The higher up into my classes I get the more often I need to write. Writing is extremely importnat and being able to express your thoughts in a professional and proficient way is ever more important.

Blogging has really helped me to overcome this sort of writing block I had placed on myself. (:

Cover letter

As if I don't have enough in my life going on right now.... (school, wedding planning, working at pretzel maker, apartment finding) I'm trying to jump start my career! I'm looking for anything where I can use my creative skills to make a difference!

the next step is to create a cover letter/ resume in which to send all of these places in which I am looking for a job. I kinda already have a personal brand... so i'm going to stick with that.
Since school is a little on the slow side, and spring break is right around the corner, I need to make this cover letter this week.

I found a pretty good example that I like here. (LOVE behance.)

I think I will do something super designed, instead of just text on a page, hoping that it will make me stand out!!

Anyways, which me luck, hopefully i will have something to show for all my hard work soon.
