Where the River Runs Dry

My way of venting out my exhaustions, confusions, excitements, and aggrevations in my world & those in and around it.

A new focus

For the last four months I’ve been attending Full Sail University to get my bachelors degree in Mobile Development. So far so good. I have a high GPA and find the work fairly easy, (knock on wood). I absolutely love my Designing Computer Graphics class. It was a bit intimidating at first glance, but once I started to learn the tools its so much easier. I have a few items to add to my portfolio and others that I am going to adjust a bit before they go in.

I do hope to find some freelance work soon, since being a student is tough when you aren’t working. I’ve been trying various projects on Crowdspring, but no luck so far. Only high ratings on my designs, but none of the clients have chosen my designs yet. I spoke to a few other designers on crowdspring and they passed on some of their knowledge, that if you have no previous chosen projects from clients, it takes a lot longer for clients to choose you. If you do have work that has been chosen previously, then you have a better chance of getting your project chosen. Now if I could just get that one client to choose one of my designs.

This is the first post I’ve created since 2009. Wow! I’ve been busy with everything lately. New school, looking for a job and projects, remodeling our home, and just living life.
