Summer Plans...

Work. Same as every summer. I might also add the excitement of moving over the summer, but we will have to see how the job offer things work out.
 
Preparing my thesis defense. :facepalm:

I also hope to make it to a couple of the major jazz festivals, as I haven't been able to do that in a couple of years. Montreal and Newport, if all goes well. (knocks on wood)
 
Archaeology field school last week of May through the end of July. No Brocktoon for you!

Maybe I can fit in a bike tour between that and the start of my last semester.
 
Besides work, a few gigs, probably attending a festival or two (still looking at the options).
And if my economy allows it, attending Pragestock II. :thu:
 
Dunno really. I'm done with uni after May so the world shall be my oyster :embarrassed: Going on holiday to Marrakech for a week in June, should be nice :)

My friend and I are going to try and get a very small/low cost business going, initially just making cheap websites for companies who just want a simple web presence, then hopefully branch out into better things such as video production etc. So I guess that'll take place over summer as well.

And I plan to do loads more mountain biking if the weather stays good :thu:
 
I generally lose a few students at the beginning of summer and then gain a few new ones not long after so it balances out. Other than that I sweat my balls off from it being so damn hot. :mad:

Trying to get people to hire me.




You'd hire me, right?



Right? :cry:

This is why me and my mate are trying to do something for ourselves if we can't get any decent jobs, which isn't looking too likely :embarrassed: In all likelihood it may well fail, but we're gonna give it a go. It's quite risk free, as his Dad has decided he'll fund it initially :idea: I'm no businessman though :embarrassed:
 
I'd do it as a backup. It'll be very hard for two guys coming out of a media studies course with no particular design training to get anywhere near enough clients to make it a real going concern.

Freelance some stuff on the side of whatever you're trying to pursue, absolutely, but setting up a business? That just sounds like a sure-fire way to waste a chunk of your friend's dad's money :embarrassed:
 
Yeah we've had the same concern, so we're just doing freelancey stuff to start with then see how it goes. Apparently we're going to "use" the marketing and telesales people at his dads company to try and get more business :shrug:

oh and it's media production, not studies :mad: :embarrassed:
 
Work and maybe a week or two away somewhere in September..either Italy..bay of Naples way...or back to Turkey, or a Greek Island.

Marrakech is great Todge!..really interesting place.

Want a third partner that's an award-winning designer? :love:
 
The usual...work, stay in the ac, baseball, beer and most likely a solo camping trip in the high country (maybe by Flagstaff) in August again unless my brother decides to go with me.
