I’m happily writing this blog entry from the Charlotte Airport! As my iMedia adventure comes to an end I am now finding myself not only juggling school, but also the job hunt! I am flying to Syracuse tonight to interview at the University for a web position in the communications school. I warned my classmates that I will probably be dead tired on Wednesday though because I am doing this entire trip in a 24 hour period!
Okay so iMedia! It is crazy to think that in two weeks it is all over! TWO WEEKS! WHAT?! I like to think that I am on the down slope when it comes to my projects, but I am trying not to get to0 cocky and let things get away from me. My CAPSTONE is coming along great! I cannot wait to make it live for the public to see! My ‘Late Afternoon Without Jimmy Fallon’ project is live and ready for review! There are still some video tweaks to make and audio to clean up but to have a full working product live is a massive weight off of my shoulders! I finally decided on a project for my application development class and now it is just a matter of creating it and troubleshooting it in the next 15 days!
It is a little scary to know that the next two weeks will determine a lot for me! I could have a job in the next two weeks! I could be moving to New York, or moving to Ohio….I could be moving somewhere I haven’t even thought of yet! I’m doing my best to not get ahead of myself and simple roll with the punches but it is hard not to let your mind wander to ‘what if’ land and imagine life after iMedia. Jobs aside, what I am most looking forward to is having a life that doesn’t revolve around my computer. I am looking forward to having the option to call it a day at 5 or 6pm. I’m looking forward to having the ability to sleep in on a Saturday and not feel like I lost valuable study time! Most of all I am just looking forward to life after iMedia. Don’t get me wrong, I love iMedia! I love what it has taught me, where it has taken me, the friendships I have made and the memories I have. Coming to Elon iMedia was no doubt one of the top 5 best decisions of my life! But most of all, I am looking forward to the life iMedia has given me the ability to have! I’m really anxious to see what I can do with this degree and push my limits with whatever job I end up with! I am excited to teach others what I have learned and sing my praises about iMedia! Simply put….I’m excited!
