And I return!

I am a junior. This is my third collegiate year.

I have a separate life on the Internet, and it has evolved vastly. I have left evidence of this on Xanga, Livejournal (which is making a comeback at this point in my life), Facebook, Photobucket, DeviantArt, Flickr, and Blogger. (Perhaps countless others, but these are the major milestones that I recall best.)

I am now an Advertising/Public Relations major and an English - Writing minor, and I am very happy with my decisions to proclaim these studies. However, my academic life is consuming much of my social life. I find myself preoccupied with assignments for all of my classes - more loads of work than I have ever witnessed. And I am determined to complete every last one of them on time and in a fashion so that I receive the best education from doing the assignments. Occassionally, I'll distract myself with some feature of the Internet, or with cooking pasta or making a sandwich, or with a quick hang-out session with a friend at Taco Bell or Burger King. But I have remained focused, and I am doing my best to be successful in my time management, and in pacing myself so that I don't get burnt out during the second week of classes.

To keep my sanity, I write extensive Livejournal entries, put thoughts down in a very cool notebook I bought at Super Target, IM friends while working (in a manner that allows me to be consistent with my studies), listen to music, and capture photographs whenever I find the opportunity.

I may be taking on too many activities and classes this semester. Only time will tell, unfortunately. The best thing to do is practice crisis management. I think it's effective so far.

This is mostly another entry to hold over this blog. With all the events coming up, I don't know when I'll have another chance to write. (Football games, homework, studying, and too many other activities cluttering my brain.) I know I offered my Photobucket account a few months ago, but I have been avoiding that web site due to the amount of worms trying to invade my personal computer from the ads on the site.

I have moved on to Flickr (as I briefly stated above). I have a free account because I can't afford much more at the moment. I am very pleased with the site, though. It's a nice storage for the best of the best of my photographs.

Feel free to leave comments, constructive criticism, or whatever you feel, if you choose to take a look. Anything would be appreciated.

And I must leave with that. Hope this entry finds everyone in good fortune.
