The News...

So I figure now is the time to go ahead and post the news I have been hoarding for the past week and a half. Actually, most people already know this, but I have not officially posted it in the blog yet.

As of July 11th, I will no longer be the Help Desk Manager for CBA ITS. Yep, I quit my job. It was time for me to move on, away from something that felt only like a trap. I like the people there a lot, but the job was dragging me down and it was effecting all of my life. For once I am going to grab hold and do something for myself. I want to find my place in this world, and working at the help desk just isn't it. I will be staying around part-time for a bit after that, as a "consultant", to help them ease into the new team and what not. It will be a good way for me to get some extra cash while not having the commitment to a full time job.

So you may be wondering, what in the world are you going to do?? These plans are sketchy right now, but I have some ideas. I want to work on my writing and photography. I really want to give that a try and see where it leads. I want very much to write a book. I think without the commitment to work, I will have the energy and ambition to actually start writing. I am excited by the very idea of setting my own schedule and doing what I want, when I want to do it.

Added to my new life, as it will be, I am going to be taking some classes at the community college here and working on improving my photoshop, dreamweaver and other web based computer skills. I'd also like to really dig into this blogger thing and learn to really customize what I am working with.

I am totally excited by these changes, it's the kind of feeling I can't even find words to explain. It's like this feeling of being totally in control, of finally doing what I should have been doing for a long time. I will never regret the time I spent working in CBA, but the time has come to push on and try new things.
