Time to step it up

Now that I'm back at work, I have the lovely experience of once again sitting in commute traffic for an hour every morning.  I used to hate this traffic, but I quickly learned to appreciate the forced downtime.  Now, I kinda look forward to the hour that allows me time to make important decisions, plan, create and think.


In this morning's traffic, I decided to stop procrastinating and putting off my life.  When I found out about Noah last January, my life was put on instant hold.  Plans of San Francisco, Arts Academy, working for a magazine - all of these were pushed to the background as Noah swiftly made his way to the front of my mind. But now that he's here and Justin and I are getting settled into a routine, I think it's time to bring back the passion for my future and my passion for art.


I haven't truly made myself solid goals since... probably since I started college.  So here goes nothin'. 
This semester: Finish classes with a B. Have a course plan and a set date to transfer to CSUS.
By summer: Have finished 9 more units at SCC. Move out. 
By this time next year: Have finished 3 more units during summer.  Be working on 9 more units. Possibly have an internship or job in graphic design/journalism. 


For now, that works.  I just need to feel like I'm moving forward instead of staying in one place, even if I'm moving forward at what seems like a snail's pace.

Testing the waters

Okay, I've started a million blogs but I've yet to actually commit to one; I can never think of what to write about.  But now that my little baby boy is here, I have a constant topic so let's give this another go. His name is Noah by the way, and he is everything good about life.
