Checkin evaluation 

I decided to take a day to make a blog post about myself, now about myself as in terms of eve day but more of a self check in evaluation. This semester has been a lot with all of the work that I have to do. I’m having a hard time managing my time but I’m trying my hardest. This semester I’m taking 3 classes with no financial aid. I have a little family trouble and my family  trouble ended up changing my financial aid. I’m taking a well of course internship, senior project and portfolio. These are the final level courses that must be taken in order to receive your bachelors within the communication design program. I know it’s only 3 classes but it’s a lot trust me. Did I mention I help with rent and have a part time job ? Yea I have a lot on my plate as I’m trying to finish college but one can only believe in himself. The most important thing I have to focus on is my time. It can run slim without me knowing. I’m usually in and out of the hospital due to my aunt having the Corona virus and such so you can only imagine what I’m going through. Senior project is taking up the majority of time. I’m really trying to not fail the class, this class ain’t something that I would want to repeat in the long run, it’s so tedious and annoying. I’m doing a project on Blm on low income African American communities. The call of action to my project is to get people to vote in the upcoming election for president ( so that changes can be made to the community ) and donations to the awareness. It’s supposed to act as a grassroots campaign. You know the Bernie Sanders campaign where he raised a lot of money from little donations. That’s the point I’m trying to draw across, that something is better than nothing in the world of asking society for help. I feel as if more people would feel to play a part even if it’s a couple cents, everything counts. The awareness is called injustice and injustice plans to tackle problems in low income communities such as safety, education, access to credit, job availability there’s a lot of facts that play a part when it comes to making a community better, but it can only be better if everyone plays a part to help reach the end goal. I really hope In the end the project comes out the way I want it to. I’ve put a lot of blood tears and sweat into the project so I would feel bummed if it isn’t what I expected. Well wish me luck everyone I’ve got work I have to do as always.
