Blog: Inspiration

Set your sights high, the higher the better. Expect the most wonderful things to happen, not in the future but right now. Realize that nothing is too good. Allow absolutely nothing to hamper you or hold you up in any way.
- Eileen Caddy
It just takes ONE moment. ONE person. ONE dream. This may INSPIRE you to achieve something great!  INSPIRATION is contagious.

In this case, several things have come together to motivate me. Good timing too.

BLOGS: 
Yeah, I know. I just wrote a whole blog about how I need to get back to blogging and yet I'm blogging about it yet again.  Sorry about that.  Next post will be about something else for sure...

ANYWAY, in case you haven't heard, my buddy Rick Baleros finished his Project 365 blog.  After seeing him complete this project, it has really INSPIRED me to start my own.  I know I also mentioned that in my last post, but I think I should really start it.

Look out for that starting JUNE 1.


As for regular blogging, I'm working on that.  I'll try to keep this up once a week or so, hopefully!!


JOBS:
I've taken a hiatus from job applications. Maybe too long of a break. Whoops.

Well, this week, I need to get back into the groove of filling out all those job applications!  I've done a ton of searching and now it's time to get back to the real work of it - applying!

After spending time with my family, I have new hope for my job search/application process. There's still some kinks to figure out, but I'm definitely more MOTIVATED.  Let's pray for the best and hope I land something soon!

As much as I like my part-time gigs and internships, I feel it's time to move on to something bigger and better.


LOCATION:
Short and sweet - it was nice to hear some encouraging words about testing the waters in NYC.


GRAD SCHOOL:
The idea of grad school is still there; it's just a matter of figuring out what I'd be studying and where.  The options are endless right now (okay I do have it narrowed down to a number I can count on two hands, which is a bit too much still).  Either way, it's another one of those processes that will slowly but surely formulate over time.


INSPIRATION. Sometimes you just need that boost of encouragement, confidence and support.  Thank you for those who have given me that boost this week. I'm excited to continue reaching for my goals and chasing my dreams!  This is the year for enterprising, but the chase is taking me a little bit longer than even I expected.

As the second half of the year begins, I'm INSPIRED to make a change. INSPIRED to have a clearer picture of my future. Just INSPIRED to continue this post grad life...

Blog: SLACKING...

You know you're thinking it too...
Hey there followers!

I know. I've been slacking on updating my blog about my post grad life.  It's definitely been a good couple months since I've done some actually updating.  Honestly, a lot of things have happened too, concerning jobs, internships, movies, books, and life in general.

So I promise to make a better attempt to get back to writing and posting things more regularly.  I may also venture into the realm of Project 365, if time allows for it.  If you haven't seen one of those kinds of blogs, check out Rick's Project 365.  It is pretty fantastic, and he's quite the photographer too! :)

I sincerely apologize for not having written much lately...
