Hello Followers.
So it has been a few hectic days. Lots of interviews (mostly part time non related to my degree but hey still jobs so yay!) And I realized thatt I have all of this free time and I need to keep creating and working on my craft. As The Robinson family says "Keep Moving Forward" (I love Meet the Robinsons such an underrated Disney Movie)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7p_eKV3SzwE
Whenever you fail at something seriously watch this video it'll cheer you right up!
So even though I have gotten a slew of job rejections I am going to keep moving forward!
First I am working on a new TV drama series entitled "A Living Album" about my ancestors and all of their rich family drama. Stay tuned for updates and excerpts :)
I also recently have decided that other than just being a writer I would love to be a special effects makeup artist (I actually have a job interview for doing that I am soo excited!)
So over the next few weeks I am making makeup designs and plots based off of Disney Villains. Mostly because they each are so unique in their own ways and have very distinct color palettes. Example Cruella DeVil black, white, and red; Ursula grey, purple, green; Hades blue and white; Maleficent green and purple; you get the jist.
So be prepared for those. and keep moving forward!

The Holiday Hangover
Hello Readers,
I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season filled with fun, food, and more food. I myself am glad to be back on the face of the earth after having to juggle 4 families worth of activities and now I can reflect on this holiday season.
First I think that winter should only last for 3 days. I hate all of this snow and ice and cold. It is pretty and definitely adds some coziness to Christmas, but unless you live in the middle of no where snow gets ugly pretty fast and currently we are in the middle of Snowpocalypse....it's not fun at all.
Though this holiday season has been great for me. Got a chance to catch up with family, got to eat really good food, finally caught up on my favorite TV shows as well as get addicted to other ones.
On the job search front it is pretty much the same. But I will be starting to write a new television drama based off of all of the family history documents my dad found when he was cleaning out my grandma's basement. Turns out our family history is filled with murder, rich family drama, affairs, writers, and more murder. So I decided I should maybe make a TV show about it. Sort of a 1920s Downtown Abbey but in America and slightly more intense.
The most interesting things my Dad found, which these will be in my series for sure, was a collection of diary entries from different family members talking about how/ why they were going to commit murder, and one of those family members committed multiple acts of murder all for the sake of money. My family history is a living example of how money can drive people to madness.
So over the next few weeks I may be posting segments from the show.
Until next time

The Importance of Random Acts of Kindness and Paying it Forward.
In my opinion the most important/ rewarding thing you can do in your lifetime is always doing random acts of kindness and remembering to pay it forward. Some can call this creating good karma.
What brings this topic on you might ask. Well a few days ago I was at the Starbucks at the SIU student center and ordered my go to winter drink (grande gingerbread latte no molasses drizzle...ah soo good) when I realized I had forgotten my debit card and credit card in my room. As I struggled to find spare change the barista just told me she would pay for it and congratulated me on graduating. I am so thankful for her kindness that now that I have money I am going to go there and give her a very large tip because that was the nicest thing a barista has ever done for me.
Also that Starbucks has shown me kindness before. Once I went to order something and the person behind me paid for it just randomly. She told me that a few days ago she had someone pay for her order and she was paying it forward. The next day I paid for a very stressed out grad student's order who really looked like he could use some free coffee.
I believe it is always important to do random acts of kindness and pay good deeds forward because to be honest our world is in a horrible place right now and we need these acts of kindness so that the human race can become nicer, more neighborly like, and our faith in humanity needs to be restored. The good in humanity is out there, we just need to show it more.
A random act of kindness could be anything from paying for someone's coffee, to shoveling a neighbor's driveway, to making someone in need a meal, really it can be anything you want it to be. And if you are given a random act of kindness always treasure it in your heart and keep it alive in your mind. And remember to pay it forward. It doesn't have to be the same act afforded to you, you just have to do something good for a fellow person/animal or both.
A good movie to reference is Pay it Forward. You will cry a lot but it is definitely one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. It is about a boy who comes up with the pay it forward model saying that if one person throughout their lifetime does three major good deeds, and I am talking big time good deeds, then if those three people also do 3 major good deeds throughout their lives. Then someday the world could become a nicer, kinder, more loving and compassionate world.
So do a good deed no matter how small, someone will appreciate it. Help make the world a better place to live in. And again always pay it forward :)

Why I have a love hate relationship with technology.
I have a very love hate relationship with technology. It's never been just one or the other it has been both at the same time since I was 5 and playing my favorite scoobydoo computer game realized there was bonus material on another disc and accidentally deleted an important file which broke my dad's laptop. (He was soooo mad at me then but now he laughs about it)
So as I grew technology grew with me (perks of being a millennial) and my dysfunctional relationship with it aged. In High School I started using animation software/ video editing software. I can't tell you the amount of times I wanted to take a sledge hammer to the old adobe premiere in 2007. But I learned AVID from my boss Nick and to this day that is my go to software for editing. It's sooo great and I have no problems with it. I do know how to edit on FCP 7 which is ok, had some troubles. And don't get me started on how much I hate FCP 10. I worked on it a couple times, I was unable to save it to my drive, it wouldn't get the footage off of the tape and kept freezing and lagging and just blech. Then of course I learned Adobe Illustrator, PhotoShop, AfterEffects, the new Premiere (much better), InDesign, and Dreamweaver; and Maya animation software. Oh and Dragon Frame.
So I do love technology. I know a lot about it. And I couldn't live without it. (sad but true)
But I hate it soo much at the same time.
Especially cell phones. It's like you get a new one, and it's outdated in like a week. And if you don't get the latest one your cell phone will get buggy. Then there is Iphone that has version after version after version, which they mainly focus on the look of the phone other than function, and currently I'm mad at the Droid brand because my phone isn't even like 2 years old and it's breaking down, and I've gotten 3 replacements that all start failing again, but because Verizon has a policy that I need to return it 5 times before I get to choose a new phone...I think personally that's a little excessive. Because if I keep coming in with my phone not working giving me the same model isn't going to help much. Oh well 3 months till I can get a new one. Which phones are good? comment below! :)
Tablets give me migraines, hard drives get corrupted randomly, programs freeze and then somehow forgot that you saved and so when you open it it's back to square one. And then there is that freaking devilish rainbow spinning wheel of pure evil, telling you that your program is frozen. Yes mac it looks pretty but it doesn't make me any less angry that program is frozen.
Also I am pretty sure the machines are going to take over. Like seriously they are. It's like no one is getting the warnings from I-Robot and that one episode of Dr.Who where the cars with certain technology start attacking, which is the latest war plan from the sentarons. Oooh such a great episode! I miss Martha :( but anyway technology is in everything. And they are trying to make a sentient robot like the one from I-robot.....So my advice befriend your tech objects now so that when the revolution happens you at least can be considered an ally, or you know be enslaved instead of killed.
But all kidding aside, technology is taking over. Like when I go out somewhere and go with people we are all on our cellphones. People would rather text than call. And it's like we are all loosing our social skills. For example (I admit I'm guilty of this) when you see someone you don't want to talk to, don't know how to talk to, or just don't want human interaction you instantly open your phone and start pressing buttons just to avoid it.
So the reason I am posting this is because this semester I had to create my own website. Here it is if you want to take a look: http://pleaseworkrhead.x10host.com/pleasepleaseworkrhead/index.html
Now you probably are thinking: why are there so many please works in that url? Well that was because I have spent the last week trying to upload it to a server that didn't work, tried 4 other sites before I found a reliable one, and even the reliable one I had some issues with. I was getting tired of it not working so I decided to maybe be nice and ask please to the url to work. (Actually I was just really really frustrated.) So I felt myswell rant about it.
Though I have loved this course. Like a lot. I now know html. It's pretty awesome what a few lines of code can do. For example:
All that was done with a few lines of code. And to show I actually did it here are the lines of code:<form action="http://www.example.com/comments.php">
Why are unicorns so amazing?<br />
<textarea cols="20" name="comments" rows="4">Enter your comments here...</textarea>
</form>
<br />
<br />

<label>Your desired cool space ranger name:<br />
<input name="your desired cool space ranger name" type="text" /></label>

<label><br /></label>
</fieldset>
Really take this course it's awesome.
Well I hope everyone has a good day and remember be nice to the machines, they might revolt at any minute :P

University Housing The Pros and Cons
Hey everybody,
So if you didn't know this I am a Resident Assistant at my college. It's fun and yet challenging and trying and rewarding at the same time. And now that I am on the way out I feel I can now be completely honest with the positives and negatives of living on campus. But as a preface I love living on campus and I believe every student should experience it. It's a great way to make friends, become involved on campus, and just a great experience. (hey if I didn't love it why would I become an RA and live in it for my entire college career?)
So now the things I won't miss about being an RA/living on campus:
1. Trying to wash dishes in a very small sink. It's not fun. I always over guess the amount of soap and my room becomes a bubble party like in the Spongebob Squarepants movie :P
2. Having a 2 door bathroom . Sure sharing it with 2 other people isn't the worst thing in the world but having to constantly say I'm in here, getting busted in on when I'm taking a shower, and of course having to share my toilet paper when sometimes my suite mates neglect to replace it, it just gets annoying. The first thing I'm going to do when I have my 1 door apartment bathroom I'm taking the longest shower/bath ever!
3. Not having control over the A/C. So at my school the rooms either are on heat or air conditioning and all you can control is the amount that get's in. I can't wait to set a temperature :)
4. The loud noise that comes with recent high school grads who now think that not only are they invincible, but also are real adults now and can do whatever they want without consequences. That young adult rebellion is full of lots and lots of noise. So when I get to my own apartment it will be with slightly more mature people.
5. The dining hall. Not that it's bad, I just can't wait to cook for myself and be able to make my own menu and get to choose what I have.
6. Having a small room with no kitchen. Enough said there.
7. Not having a car. I miss my 2004 green ford escape (AKA Bulbasaur) soooo much!
8. Living where I work. Yes being an RA is awesome and I love it a lot, but sometimes you need a place in complete peace and unwind from work. And when you live where you work it's hard to completely unwind because your residents can knock on your door at any time.
9. Not being able to have alcohol in my room even though I'm 21. Not that I drink a lot just sometimes on really stressful day I want a nice yummy margarita or daiquiri but I don't want to leave my room. So can't wait for that.
10. Not having a pet. I miss my jellybeans. here's a pic of her and my red panda stuffed animal.
And now the things I will miss.
1. Not having to pay for utilities. I can take a 40min shower if I wanted and not have to worry about paying a bill. I can have all of my tech stuff on at the same time and not have to worry about paying a bill. And I can blast the A/C or Heat as much as I want without paying a bill. It's glorious.
2. Not having to pay for cable and having HBO and showtime and stars as part of my housing pay. SO AWESOME!!! Gonna miss it.
3. Having great neighbors who are there for each other. While I might get that in other places there probably won't be 50+ people on a floor always hanging out and helping each other out.
4. All of the programs. It's fun when there are a bunch of things going on like movie nights, snow cone nights, game nights. Now I'll have to make my own outings.
5. Getting a free room and food. Ah I will miss the perks of the RA job.
6. Having a front desk. A front desk provides extra safety as well as help. Hopefully my apartment building will have one.
7. Having my best friend in the same building. I'm going to miss you candice!
8. Making door decs for everyone on my floor. I really like making crafts and I'm going to miss door decs.
9. Having a Dining Hall. Yes I want to cook but on those days I am lazy a dining hall would sound amazing.
10. Having a rec center within walking distance with free yoga classes. Ah I will miss it.
So in conclusion. Housing is great but I am definitely looking forward to the future.

Someday I will get a job....Someday
So I am graduating in 5 days and so far job prospects look promising and yet weak at the same time. I believe I am on the right track. I have experience and am a really hard worker, so I shouldn't worry right? If only life was a fairytale and I had a fairy jobmother who would appear in a lovely professional pantsuit wielding a magical clipboard, wearing dainty glasses with a chain on them, and of course firmly clinging to a coffee cup. She would find me multiple jobs and I could have my pick of whichever one I wanted. But sadly reality doesn't come with a fairy jobmother.
Though I think I might now make a television series about such a women/man. Make it a comedy maybe? Post your comments if I should explore this more :)
It is rather hard entering the job market when while it seems the last 10 years have been a bad economy and a bad job market, I remain hopeful and optimistic. Just like Ugly Betty and Tracey Turnblad and Rapunzel (Tangled version) I have a dream and feel in my gut I am meant for great things.
Also, interesting fact about me/ my mom and brother, when I was 9 my mom got her fortune told by an old fortune teller wearing a greenish blue dress and her greying red hair in a short hairdo at a local bar in Villa Park. When my mom came back to the table she stated that the fortune teller told her that my brother would become a rich architect and stay in the area most of his life. The fortune teller also said that I would be living far away from home but be rich, famous, and do great things with my life. Weird huh? And while I know fortune telling isn't all true and not all false, I still can dream that it will come true.
But I know the key to getting your dream job is to start at the bottom, always do your best, never stop learning, keep creating and perfecting your skill set, never be late, and most importantly never give up. Like Tiana in The Princess in The Frog did.
So one day I will have my happily ever after. I mean I already have my prince charming (Though I would say he was more of a nerdy han solo).
Wish me luck world! :)
