I have taken over 120 credits in art and design. I have met people at school. I will be a half time student. I teach baseball to kids. I visited Myrtle beach, SC.
I had a job and I'm a freelance entrepreneur now. I didn't like my old job. I like to surf and I live near ocean. I know Italian. I have studied in Italy. I have a dog named athena. I would like to go to a baseball game.
Have you been able to find any work? I've put my application out there to several places, now I am just waiting to see what they say. I freelance so I have things to do at least.  What is it like being a freelancer? Do you like it? I love being able to set my own hours. I don't like not having a reliable paycheck. But I am a hard worker so I find that I get by. It's definitely not an easy 'job', but if you are willing to put the time in - it can be profitable. That's what I've heard from entrepreneurs too. It can be really stressful in the beginning and most people don't recommend trying to do it full time right off the bat. I eased my way into it, spend a lot of time networking and building up my 'brand', now I have a good selection of clients who keep coming back. I think that's the hardest thing to start with. How did you build your brand? I started small, marketting it to friends/family. Those people started talking with their friends. I built a website and it just grew from there. Now I attend conferences and fairs and expos. Wow! That's amazing! Are you putting in applications now, because you want more stability? I'd like to keep my options open. I am getting older and it might be nice to not have to think so much or be responsible for so much. Ah that's interesting perspective. For some reason, I always thought that being a freelancer or entrepreneur gave you more freedom, but I'm realizing now that it is a lot of responsibility. It does give you freedom, you can make your own hours and rules and decide how to run your buisness. But it's not easy and I find I work a LOT of hours to make sure I have a viable living/product/brand.
