On Tuesday, I applied to be a volunteer at the motion graphics conference in Albuquerque. I'm not sure when they'll let me know if I got it or not.

I finished my rough draft for my Career Goals paper. It actually made me realize I wanted to go into journalism graphics. All this time I've had a fuzzy image of the work I'd like to do.  I never saw myself going freelance or working on ads. It suddenly occurred to me – journalism! That's my niche. I can see myself doing that.

There's a group called Society for News Design. Memberships are $60 for full-time students. I'll think about it. I checked on some workshops they offer, but the closest is in St. Louis.
