Photo I took of my pal Tristan blowing fire. Don't worry he's a pyro professional, and has been doing this for years.

An Explanation for Myself
I still have yet to receive my Bachelors of Arts in Journalism from Western Washington University. I've put in my four-plus years, done the extracurriculars and internships, but I still lack that necessary piece of paper.
Why? 'Cos I thought I chose the easier route by moving back and working full-time. But per usual, I just made things harder on myself.
Here I am in September 2009, and I have I still haven't completed a majority of my 140 pages of essays I must write to receive an emphasis in Sociology. However, I do not completely regret my decision to move home, I think it has woken me up to responsibility and independence.
Sometimes you need to figure your way out of a problem to truly mature as an adult.

Improving My Digital Presence
It occurred to me the other day that I wasn't representing myself very well in the digital universe. Ya know, like letting the ole grammar get spotty. Or not tweeting for days. Why? Pure laziness. But that doesn't matter--what does matter is I've noticed and am in the process of taking the necessary steps to right my wrongs.
Why? Because how you are seen on the social media websites and you must be consistent to be a responsible social media expert. This is important, because I am in the business of interacting with people and figuring out how to turn discovery into action.
Like me, I'm sure no one has really thought of/care about how they represent themselves. But with more teachers and potential employers it is important to be consistent and professional on your profile.
Can I get an amen?
