sighs :/
one internship, a job that closed down after 3 months, and a former part time position where I was getting paid less than full time mcdonalds employees.
The IT industry is buttcheeks sometimes :/
A lot of september birthdays in this thread.
Happy belated Rev, Soilbreak, soundafekz and anyone else I missed.

Not me. Journalism major here. Wanted to break into games journalism, but that seemed toxic over the years. Still wanna do it though.
Got one in my Grad field

Random note, but just gonna take a moment to plug Eneloop rechargeable batteries. I've used rechargeable batteries in the past (namely Radioshack branded) but these motherfuckers last forever. If anyone's in the market for them, definitely check it out.
Yes by pure luck
Didn't start working in that field for about half a year after graduating though
IT is a cold world

"Journalism" shouldn't be used together with "games" or "videogames". Go make a blog nigga, it's the samething.

I just finished my first quarter in my first year of university, so I'm new to the college thing. I don't even know what I wanted to major in. Like Beef, originally I was doing journalism but that was because I wanted to be a reporter. But I'm unsure. I'll keep pursuing writing to fall back on but I think I'm gonna go for something in culinary arts.
That's what my folks say. I screw face them every time.
gonna celebrate on behalf of the entire month. See ya'll niggas monday.

Man do what I did, search for design firms all over your area and in the "contact us" page, drop your portfolio site and write a bit about yourself.
Eventually one of them will call you.

As someone who is 27, he speaks the truth
I did. Graphic design. No freelancing nonsense either.
This made my day, no joke. Forwarded the link to my wife telling her to come and get her people.

I actually thought that was pretty funny. I wonder why the moderators didn't.

Don't knock it, you can make very good money in freelancing. Doing your finances, and other stuff can be soul crushing though.

The first series is anyways
Everything afterwards is the sports manga version of Bleach though
Ayyyyyyyyye.
After she gave her speech, they held an open mic for questions. I asked her if she had any advice for the youth and young adults like me who feel a sense of isolation and futility when we suffer from the effects of racism. She answered by saying we have to organize, and work together as there is no such thing as individual hope (unless you're a capitalist, or have capitalist desires), but also focus on bettering one's self.
I wish more people got a chance to see her speak, but the only people that were there were community groups, city/county/state employees and UPS students that could afford it... a former civil rights leader, professor, and former Black Panther comes in town to speak in front of us, and UPS charges $230 for the opportunity, smh.
