Times are really bad right now, and I have been going through a 2 year post college depression. I have written out a mini schedule for myself to follow for the next couple months, and I hope this will give me the kind of work that can start to change my life and career plans. I am tired of feeling sorry for myself. I am tired of crying the blues over student loans going to waste. I am tired of bussing tables when I have a Bachelor's Degree in Animation. I WANT TO ANIMATE!!! Like a phoenix I will rise from the ashes!!! Ok... a little dramatic, but I needed the pep talk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What got me back on track? Disney and my friend Nicole. Disney is going back to what I used to love most about them... their 2D animated movies! They are releasing a movie titled : The Princess and the Frog. I found hope in a world obsessed with 3D. I can still do what I love!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nicole is a dear friend who I don't get to see very often, but I love her anyway! She makes me feel like I can do anything in a minute, even when I have beaten myself up for years saying I can't. Love ya Nicole!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4299308219131195350-7955839699497848490?l=kristadean.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristadean.blogspot.com/feeds/7955839699497848490/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4299308219131195350&amp;postID=7955839699497848490' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4299308219131195350/posts/default/7955839699497848490'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4299308219131195350/posts/default/7955839699497848490'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristadean.blogspot.com/2009/06/beginning-work-on-portfolio-disney-and.html' title='Beginning work on the Portfolio.

If anybody would like to come see my work I will be at the Fashion Show Mall in Las Vegas on Thursday, March 22nd. They ley the public come in from 1:00pm-2:00pm, so don't come earlier unless you have an invitation from the Art Institute. Now that school is out of the way, I plan on having some good quality time with my independent animation project called Ziki the Tikiman. Hopefully I can show you more about this project as it progresses.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4299308219131195350-6112757648328989019?l=kristadean.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristadean.blogspot.com/feeds/6112757648328989019/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4299308219131195350&amp;postID=6112757648328989019' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4299308219131195350/posts/default/6112757648328989019'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4299308219131195350/posts/default/6112757648328989019'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristadean.blogspot.com/2007/03/graduation.html' title='Graduation!'/><author><name>Krista</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11841957755206821210</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ftma-Uvp-Fo/Rft_soZL-JI/AAAAAAAAAAY/8OYp8_Mdm5A/s72-c/Ziki+theTiki+Man.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4299308219131195350.post-1279327880672553088</id><published>2007-02-22T22:04:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-22T22:09:48.802-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Working Hard</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ftma-Uvp-Fo/Rd6Ecpn07sI/AAAAAAAAAAM/grjlk2grMiw/s1600-h/Cartoon+Centaur.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5034607061190897346" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ftma-Uvp-Fo/Rd6Ecpn07sI/AAAAAAAAAAM/grjlk2grMiw/s320/Cartoon+Centaur.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'm working hard on my Demo Reel for graduation right now.
