This Week's Drama
This past week has been extremely productive and action packed for me. I had to work on making up my missing assignments for all of my AP classes, due to my sickness the previous week. I also had to work on designing a shirt for my high school chorus. Balancing out my responsibilities for each week always becomes a big struggle, since I have a myriad of them. Working at the movie theaters is a must for me, because I now have to purchase my own gas, and I always want to buy more equipment for my camera and my guitar to expand my talents and passions. It's also tough having to intern while I work, because I have to make sure my schedule doesn't have any conflicts.
Honestly, all this running around would not be that bad, but the stress of trying to meet my SAT requirement has been dragging me own the most. My main priority as of right now is to get into Georgia Tech, which is where my mother went, and where my brother is currently enrolled. I feel like I have all of the requirements to be accepted, but my SAT score is the only one holding me back.
I do believe I found the perfect balance of my responsibilities, and I can't really complain about it. It's all just part of growing up and entering the real world. Your mom is no longer the one taking charge for you. You have to set your own schedule, handle your own responsibilities, and be alert. My mentors email me on almost a daily basis, and I can't just put it off like a text message from a friend.If you have the initiative, you are able to accomplish anything.

Dave Ramsey & Money
"We do not break the bad habit of debt through earning more money, but rather we break any habit by replacing it with a better one."
This simply means that getting in a good habit of using cash or debit is the remedy for breaking bad habits like using credit cards and loans. Earning more money and still using credit cards, just makes the debt on a bigger scale.
I am not that worried about getting into financial trouble as I get older, because my parents have learned how to beat the financial system the hard way. They've been in huge debt before, but have fought their way out, and stayed their way out, by using good spending habits. My dad has taught me the ways of Dave Ramsey since I was a little kid.
Money factors into almost every career path in life, but in my case, it's only a necessity when you're getting started. Purchasing media software and hardware were definitely the most expensive purchases I've ever made in my lifetime. Once you have the equipment, though, you're good to go. The ability to do graphic design doesn't leave you.
Money shouldn't be the biggest consideration in choosing a path, because honestly, money doesn't buy happiness. I would rather make a middle-class income doing something I love, than make a ridiculously large amount of money doing something that I loathe everyday.

Dare to Dream!
Dare to Dream!
I've only been attending my mentorship for three days so far, and has already begun to teach me wonders! I hope to progressively learn how to use my experience and apply it to the real world, since I've been programmed to just use my knowledge in the classroom. As my teachers always tell me, "There is no such thing as a dumb question," so I will not hesitate to ask any question that will further boost my knowledge in my field of study. This internship is giving me the next level of expertise that I need to be prepared for my future business. I am glad that I finally have the chance to progress past basic academic knowledge, and journey into the real world!
My Mission Statement
MISSION STATEMENT:
I am known for my friendly features.
I will turn gloom to glee for every lonely creature.
I will never let my trust be defeated.
And I keep in mind: Everything happens for a reason.
