There are some big events about to occur. One of them...supposedly, is going to be the end of the world. Psh. Another big one is that I have submitted my graduation packet and now just need to ensure I survive this and next semester. This one won't be so bad but next spring will be hard.
Spring Semester Schedule:
MWF: Managing Organizations and People
TR: International Management
Science, Technology, and Modern Society
Public Relations Agency
Communication Research (A basic stats class for JCOM majors)
Online: Mass Media Law
Internship: The Image Foundry
All of these equals an equivalent load of 21 credits. I will continue working part-time at Sam's Club and my dear wife will have to manage without a husband for a period of time.
I am excited for the internship. Daniel Felsted, owner of The Image Foundry, is a man of great talent and immense knowledge. He is requiring a lot of me and though I don't feel I am up to the tasks, I will make myself so that I am. I will be writing press releases, doing market research, contacting previous and current customers to survey them and see what else the can be done for them, creating how-to videos on various processes for future employees, and whatever else Dan sees fit to give me.
I will also be directing/planning 2Cure Cancer again. This year will be awesome. I learned a lot from last year and will not make the same mistakes. During Christmas break I will be making the necessary contacts, seeking sponsors, and begin the advertising process 4 months prior to the event rather than just weeks before. I developed some great business relationships with folks here locally that I will be able to cultivate even more this year and hopefully 2Cure Cancer will be able to really help someone out there.
It will be a hard semester but I'm looking forward to the stretching and pulling it will cause. Either I get stronger and overcome or stop allowing myself to be tugged, eventually get ripped apart, and fail. The latter is not an option.
