Off to my creative career and exciting future!

Remember my last blog and not being a happy camper?
Positive energy does good for you...
I finally found a place to live that will be good for a couple months until I can afford a studio on my own.
I was accepted to be apart of a photo team part time that photographs real estate, I have a shorter term contract job, & I have another interview for a job on Monday.
Thinking about my future is no longer a scary thing, I am no longer worried if I will make it in this field and do what I really want to do. I have kept my head high and have worked damn hard.
Although I've been busy and working a lot of hours along with school and finishing portfolio, I'm still more calm then I was before.

& I turned 22 a week ago!

Wednesday was when everything was due for portfolio and I was signed off. It was a huge sigh of relief to see that everything came together how I've pictured it in the end. I still have not be able to completely relax from the college madness because I work 60 hours this week.
Now that everything is over I don't know how to feel, my emotions are a little all over the place. It's a very bittersweet moment. I've been through a lot of great things the past 2 1/2 years here in Denver. I'm not going to lie, I'm going to miss school. I feel like a big part of this is the people I surround myself with daily, especially being a resident assistant as well. I have definitely learned a lot about myself and know I have grown into a greater artist and the person I really want to be.
I could not have gone through this process and have grown into who I wanted to be without all of the ups and downs, an incredibly supportive family and wonderful parents, the greatest instructors who taught me more then I thought possible, peers who push me, and the greatest friends who have always been there for me.

What's next?
Thinking about everything has made me really giddy. I have plans and endeavors in the back of my mind that I'm more then driven to accomplish.
I'm young and taking thing that are thrown my way, I'm not too concerned about the BIG long term goal right away because I know all of these steps will get me there. I don't want that huge and sexy job in New York City right away. Right now what I really need in my life is creativity, new learning experiences, travels, and flexibility. I want to find freelance work photographing more food and architecture, I really want shoot for magazines. I'm planning on sending my fine art work to various galleries and I've had an idea in the back of my mind with my photo transfers on wood and glass that I'm hoping goes as planned. I'm itching to take some time to myself, travel around Colorado with the fall colors, and shoot for myself. Travel! Oh how I want to take my camera, go on journeys, and blog along the way. My creativity has been on a high and I can't wait to have time to do it all and making a living with it.

The only thing I have left is Portfolio Showcase Friday at The Denver Convention Center.

OFF TO MY FUTURE AND CREATIVE CAREER!
I DID IT!
