Stress

That’s all I can really say about this past month. And why I haven’t been writing.

School, Horizon, work, YouTube, trying to spend what small amounts of time I can with Cara, and more KYSCO broadcasts than I’m used to.

I got my first official media credentials for the Derby BB Classic Night of the Future Stars, though. That’s pretty cool.

The broadcast also happened to be the smoothest and best quality broadcast we’ve done that yet, despite not being able to use any of the new equipment Matt just bought. I feel bad for that, but I really feel he jumped on these purchases and I had no way of knowing what we were getting into. Hopefully he can sell the ATEM and make his money back.

Before that I got to travel up to Indianapolis to IUPUI’s campus - my first 2hr+ travel where I’m the driver, and going solo. Driving up and back was fine. The campus was beautiful, but HUGE. They have a monorail going around campus. Crazy.

I needed to rush home to broadcast with Matt and was almost late because I spent 30 minutes wandering around the campus looking for my parking lot and car. Not fun.

But I won an award for my first publication on the Horizon!

School has been crazy as hell, and stressful. There’s just been so much to keep up with, and The Horizon has really bogged me down. I elected not to re-apply for editor for next semester. It would be fantastic to have any further semester I can get on a resume, but it’s so much extra work - on top of an already 15-hr semester pre-Horizon - and I don’t feel it’s worth it. This semester I haven’t been able to do hardly anything for my own work - YouTube, my website, etc., and it’s hurt me. I’m at a point (almost 10k subscribers!) in my various works that I need to be able to devote the time to that work, and Horizon is what’s getting cut.

Finals are coming up, and I’ve basically mentally checked out for the semester. Only 2 weeks left, and I think I can make it, as long as I manage well.

I’ve also been listening to a podcast - The Chris Cerrone Show - about solo entrepreneurs, and it’s been really interesting and inspiring.

I need to sleep.
