For some reason, my business email has been submitted to a few school databases. I’ve got colleges emailing me up the wazoo with information that I never requested. Most of these emails don’t even contain a link that says “Remove me from this mailing list” and that’s the worst kind of email to get. I’ve had one school email me about three times in the last two hours because they’re “Unable to get in touch with me” the phone number they have on file is the one in New York so this can only mean that they’ve been calling my fathers house and I have no doubt in my mind that he’s annoyed about it at this point. I guess I’ll call him in a little while and let him know what’s going on.
I already have my heart set on a school. I know for a fact that I’m going to Penn Foster to get my multimedia degree. At first I wanted to take the programming one but I think it’ll be easier just to get the design aspect taken care of. I’ve wanted to learn flash for years and the only way to do that will have to be with someone (well, in this case a book) walking me through it. This is why you’ve noticed more paid posting on my site. At first it was just to break even but I’m working on something much bigger. Averaging $25-$30 a day worth of posts is very easy but when you factor in 30 days a month that’s about $750-$900 a month, a part time job. Blogging is my outside job, I do still make enough with the design business to be covered but the extra $800 a month is more of a comfort thing. After the first month I’ll be able to enroll in the first semester and that’s really all I want at this point.
