SUNSHINE RISING

2012 Resolutions

2012-01-01T01:06:00.000-06:00

I said that I was going to post my 2012 resolutions before 2012 but I had a TON of work to do before the new year. I got most of it done so now I can breath a little bit. Today is my birthday and I have no plans other than watching the Vikings-Bears game in my living room. I wanted to go to the game but I don't have enough money for tickets. I'm celebrating my birthday with family on Tuesday

Looking Ahead

2011-12-26T00:46:00.000-06:00

My last post was six months ago so I figured this was a good time to give an update. I hope everyone had a great Christmas or Hanukkah or whatever you celebrate. Christmas started out pretty crappy but it turned out to be an okay day. I didn't get anything I had asked for so I'm a little disappointed but I think I'm over it now. 2011 Goals and Resolutions In January 2011, I made a detailed

The Dreaded Summer Drought

2011-07-28T03:40:00.000-05:00

The summer drought has hit workwise. There has been very little work in title selection for the past three weeks and I can't even find good titles to write. I'm so glad that I got a check from Google this month and I also got my payment for my eHow articles. They both help but I think I'm still going to be short paying bills in August. I might have to borrow money from my dad as much as that

It's Offically Summer!!

2011-06-21T23:28:00.000-05:00

I thought today would be a good time to give an update. I have a lot of news. First, I ended up getting my mom a Nook for Mother's Day. She loved it and uses it all the time. I also bought myself a netbook. Big mistake. I bought it so I could work outside on the patio but the screen is glossy so there is no way I can use it outside. I've only used it twice since I bought it in late April. It was

A Few Thoughts

2011-04-14T19:22:00.000-05:00

Life is going great. I only have a few more assignments for school, I've made a lot more money this month than expected and summer is right around the corner. There are a few things that I want to get off my mind. First, I need to set up a morning routine. Right now, I go to bed around midnight but I don't wake up in the morning until 10:30 or 11 and that's only because my alarm is set for 10 (I

Only One Month to Go!

2011-03-30T20:43:00.001-05:00

A lot has happened since I last posted. Where do I begin? I got A's in all my classes last semester except for 1 class where I got a B. It was the class that I expected to get an A in - Interactive Web Design. The professor never told me why he gave me a B. This semester is doing great so far. I'm taking four classes this semester. I'm taking Digital Art II with the same professor as last

Fall Semester is Coming to an End

2010-12-08T13:08:00.000-06:00

It seems as if I only update this blog once every six months. It is not because I forget about it but it is because I am so busy. The fall semester is finally coming to a close. Only a week and a half left. I'll be jumping with joy next Friday. My classes were easy, yet, hard. Semester Review I took five online classes. The first class, Computer as a Creative Media, was horrible. The professor

Big Changes Starting Today!!

2010-08-23T01:21:00.000-05:00

I haven't posted in a while because I've been super busy. I am going back to college for Web Design and Development. I start my online classes today. I was really nervous about it but I just logged in and checked out my classes and they don't look that bad. A ton of work but it doesn't look like it's hard work. I think I'm actually going to have fun in my E-commerce class because we get to build

Something has Got to Change!

2010-04-09T00:07:00.000-05:00

I have been so un-motivated lately that it's pathetic. I only made $450 last month. That was enough to make my February car payment (I didn't have enough money to pay it in February so I paid it in March) and my credit card bill. I had to put my student loan on a 6-month forbearance. My March car payment is late, I don't have enough to make my credit card payment due on Friday and the

February Review and eHow Challenge

2010-03-01T19:09:00.002-06:00

Sorry for not posting in a while. I've been very busy. I got burned out on writing in December and took the first two weeks of January off - big mistake!! I have been struggling to get caught up. I have been managing to pay my bills on time but barely. I only made $581 in January which I used to pay my bills. I have realized that I am tired of writing for Demand Studios. I feel like I could make

An Overdue Update for December
