Thanks to #jenclass, it can be a little less stressful because Jen Reeves is supposed to help us through it. Of course, one of the things you have to do when looking for jobs is build a website. I have never done one before, and it seems like it's going to be a bit of a challenge. I have never posted video to my own website or done anything like that. I sure have posted videos though to YouTube before though. I've got a whole channel for that. Posting to YouTube though is a bit different from posting it on your own website. Oh well. We'll just have to see how things go. I will learn how to embed though in the near future to put my YouTube videos onto my website. Boy if I were getting any more down on myself, you'd probably think I'm a very negative person right? I don't like to think of myself as negative...just very hard on myself.
What are some of the positive things I know right now? In three months, I will have a website that I can show off to employers...hopefully. That's more than a lot of people can say at this age. I'm so excited to have it because I've worked at storing all my videos so carefully over the past year. Storing those videos has taken a good amount of time as well. The website or portfolio is the chance you get to show off all the amazing work you've done so far. It will also show people what I'm capable of doing in the near future.
The point is...I feel like I've got a lot to learn. But, isn't that the point? If I knew everything already, wouldn't I not need the class? Actually nobody ever knows everything, so it'd be a lose-lose in that situation. I wouldn't have taken #jenclass and I wouldn't have learned anything. This way, it's going to be a win-win for me. I'm in #jenclass and I'm going to learn a lot. The class is going to be full of challenges, but so will my first job. Life is full of challenges as well. It's not about the challenges that life throws at you, it's about what you make of those challenges. I do believe that, and whether or not I see it now, I know there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
