Grade A

Yet another semester began today for me at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This could potentially be my last one...but chances are I'll be back next fall to finish up the major and minor. A lot of people have either been surprised that I was still in college or that I haven't yet "dropped out" to further pursue the business. But a degree is very important to me. Not saying that you absolutely need one, because I have learned way more outside of the classroom than I ever could in a text book. An extremely talented designer in the clothing industry was told he had all the talent and skill for the job, but "legally" the company could not hire him because he didn't have a degree of any kind. 

Last semester was a success. So much so that it yielded three A's and a couple A-'s on the side...! This semester may be a little bit more difficult however. With a few capstone classes down my final steps to an Advertising and Public Relations degree, my time will be extremely limited. That's my main concern...will I have enough time to satisfy both my business aspirations and my scholastic? The LeBron project is definitely still in the works - but now I have to re-strategize as to when and how I'd be able to accomplish such. No matter the time crunch, even if I don't ever get to sleep, I will make this work for not only this business, but for the reason why I'm doing this...

For those of you going back to school, good luck! Keep your head level and work harder than everyone else. God bless & be easy!
