Like many people, I graduated from College this weekend. I leave Salt Lake Community College With an English Associates of Science Degree and a lot of good memories. I hope to get the money together to attend the University of Utah for my BA. I want to go into Journalism, a field which which has seen massive changes in recent years including the laying off of many of the people already working in that field.

To add to the troubles the economy is in the crapper and any job, let alone a decent one is hard to come by. I was recently fired from my job of four years ( I don't want to discuss particulars, but I will say it was as much my fault as anyone else s.) So money has been tight. Even finding a "just for now job" has been arduous.
