The summer is pretty much over, and I’ve come to realize two things about these past 4 months.

I did not make nearly as much money as I hoped, and I lost the girl that I love with all my heart.

All in all, it was a horrible summer.

Wow, I’m extremely tired today… About to begin day #2 of unbearable heat and humidity.

So it’s been a little while since my last post… and a lot has changed since then.

Since my last post I have gone to Myrtle Beach, and also resprained the ankle that I shattered before (which, by the way, never healed correctly). I have also had around 6 or so meetings with local companies about redesigning their site through my Epic WebStudios Interactive moniker. Only two of which have signed on for jobs, but two others are pretty close to signing on, and the other I have to wait until September to get going.

I’m pretty pumped that I’m starting to get paid for doing the same shit I’ve been doing since I was 11. Everything starting to come to fruition, but on the other hand it’s kind of a pain in the ass to meet with companies and keep making revisions and what not, but oh well. Money is money, and experience is priceless. I’m getting the experience I need, while also making some decent cash for the little amount of effort I really have to put into it.

This summer is looking awesome now, and I can’t wait until I start seeing the actual check start rollin’ in. My goal for this Summer is to make around $10,000. So far, it’s looking really good that I might even double that. We shall see…

LG phones are out to get me…

LG VX7000: Replaced 3 times (Dropping calls, missing texts, random restarts)

LG VX8300: Replaced 8 [yes, 8] times (Dropping calls, missing texts, constant restarts, freezing, camera breaking)

LG VX8350: Replaced 3 times (Hinge breaking, random Word failing [jumbling letters mid-type], failing to charge)

And today, ironically on a car ride where we are talking about phones deciding to die/failing to work correctly, I open my phone to see my screen now is all distorted and displaying things completely fucking weird. Same thing that happened to a girl’s phone at work (same model and build). Lets see if I can fight Verizon to give me a free replacement.
