... and here's why. it's a story.
when i first got into the bfa i couldn't work full time anymore. (let's not discuss how painful it is to look at my entrance portfolio. it was thrown out the second day of classes that semester). i'd been taking around 10 credits a semester for two years so i could work, and with the bfa it was impossible to do that anymore. there is only one class of students a year so your schedule is decided for you. it's a packed schedule too. each class is three hours long, so you're usually in class all day and then up all night trying to get projects done.
well, i like saving money. i like dave ramsey. and between our bank account and dave ramsey swirling in my little head i knew we would have a problem earning a quarter of what i used to make. having to go from a pretty salary to working fifteen to twenty hours a week at a student job (which i love) just wasn't going to cut it for me. our mint account got sad just thinking about it. and in my childish heart, this scene just made too much of an impact.
our main goal was to graduate, but it was also important to graduate debt free and with savings so we could be ready for whatever happened next.
so i started selling posters. it took a few months for it to get going, but since then the sales have been pretty solid. and because of it we've managed to hit our goals. we paid for college selling pieces of paper. i love the internet.
so the sale is a big thank you! to everybody who helped and supported this quirky idea. we reallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreally appreciate it.
I am really impressed with and proud of you for doing what you've done. I think you're pretty amazing!
