Okay over the couple of months in my blog.
I have said that I have something exciting in the works. Well that exciting thing was an internship(a more intense work experience). I have had few fall through that I thought I was on with (they were mainly through friends or school). That is why I didn't want to say anything, cause nothing was for sure. I didn't want jinx it.
A few weeks ago my friend Charlie hooked me up with an interveiw at a really rad web design firm. A week or so later I heard back from them with a yes we would love to have you join our team as a intern. I was so excited, but that is not even the most exciting part about it.
So it is a 3 month fulltime internship. Which is what I thought it may be and every other internship I have looked into has been unpaid. Well in this email I got back from them, they said we pay our interns $10 an hour. My jaw dropped to the floor. I thought I was going to be going to school, TAing, interning and trying to fit in as many hours as I could at the movie theater. Now I can quit the movie theater. Well I am going to be an emergency back up. So I can focus solely on school and the internship.
The place I am interning at is http://www.designcommission.com
Jillian got me a pair of headphones as a congratulation gift. Wesc maracas. I will send an image when I get them in the mail.
In other exciting news I am writing and drawing a childrens book for a company called marsnews.com . It is what says in the name it is a rad website dedicated to delivering news about space and mars. I have sent off a story board to them and they love it. I have started working on the actual illustrations. I won't tell you what it is about, I need to keep something as a surprise.
Other than that Jillian is good and loving her job. Carpooling with her Sister Natalie just about everyday. The pooches are good. Family is good.
We have been hanging out with friends and just enjoying life. Even when I have to change out the garbage disposal over the weekend. Actually I rather enjoyed learning how to do that.
I hope this finds you all well.
