Yup, that’s right…a new job. After a couple weeks of sales at bluefish, I have moved on to something better and more fitting for me. I am now doing editorial support for online newsrooms at Wieck Media. So far, so good…and so far a much better fit…I will tell you more about it down the time once I am more settled in and can give you all a better update!
Yes, a little update never hurt. I (finally) got a job this week. I am a sales representative with bluefishtv! Should be a good job to have while I continue to hunt for something in radio and writing. I figure it will be a good start and a good place to get some money saved up. Plus its a pretty cool company I think.
Also, I am doing some side work with the Dallas Morning News in their sports department. Just some data clerk work really for now. Hopefully I can move on up there in the future.
I will come back later with more updates on how the job is going and all. I may actually, fully update this site all over soon. It needs a redo.
I know, I know. Its been since May that I last wrote something on this wonderful site of mine. I am sorry for the long delay, I am currently in Dallas looking for a real-world job. Yeah. Its been a tough thing but I feel that I am close to landing something full time here real soon. I have had a couple interviews over the past couple weeks. Some went alright and others I wish I hadn’t taken the time to go to. I still have another interview tomorrow with KRLD here in Dallas. Hopefully this is the last interview I go on in a while and get a job. That would be lovely. So keep me in your prayers as I go out in the real world and try to live life.
Cheers,
-Drew
PS. Once I do have a job I will let ya know. Plus I will try to take some time in the near future and actually post some graduation and other photos from this summer like my brother’s wedding and things like that.
Haha, yeah, I graduated college. Crazy how four years went by so far. I will post photos of it all soon enough once I get photos from everyone…I took my camera but didn’t take any photos with it. Crazy how that works out. Though I did take plenty of photos with other cameras with other people!
Keep your fingers crossed about my job situation. I am waiting to hear back from a couple now! And hopefully more than that!
Yeah, school is done and work is almost done here in Morgantown. The age old question about the job situation post-WVU for me is still going on. Things are looking up, I felt it would go this way towards time for graduation. Jobs are opening up all over more so now than a couple months ago. So that is comforting to a degree and it is just a matter of time before something is in line.
These things take time but something will come up and everyone will know of it. Until then keep praying about it along with me!
Other than school ending and job hunting there is no real news going on to report. Been kinda boring around these parts recently really. But summer is around the corner, as well as Mikey and Jennifer’s wedding in June.
I know I hardly ever seem to get the time to update this these days. I do spend a lot of time job hunting though. That isn’t going great so far, the radio market is a little bit tougher than many expect it to be.
I still have my hopes up. There are some possibilities out there I think. It just comes down to me finding them or them taking me!
I will keep you all posted on it as usual though.
Okay, as many of you know I have been gone for two weeks in Texas trying to find jobs. Though I wasn’t successful at finding anything I did make some contacts that could help me out in the long run.
I felt now would be a good time to post some photos of the new house (some of you have been curious what it turned out to) and some of my Austin photos. So bear with me, there are a lot of photos here.
Enjoy!
My room…still some boxes and tubs…probably will always be like that until I move out…
Hallway to the bathroom and Andrew’s room:

Okay these are from Austin, at Mt. Bonnell overlooking Lake Austin:
Yeah, less than a week away from moving here. I will have the new address posted soon once I remember to actually write it down for a change. I have spent a good majority of this day packing up my junk. I have cleared out my DVD shelf, my night stand shelf that had a lot of books and CDs, and I am almost done with my desk and another shelf.
I have made some progress which is encouraging to me right now. Not to mention the “to-do” list that I have right now I have knocked out a few items on it today which is always nice to do.
Still a long way to go, I felt like taking a break and talking about it on here. I am due a break here today I think. Between laundry, packing, looking for jobs, more packing, more laundry, getting a haircut, more packing, more job hunting and did I mention packing? Yeah. Tomorrow will be a continuation of this as well. Though I will be doing more school work. I have a test to study for an a theater scene to memorize.
Thankfully my break is less than a week away so all is looking well.
I am busy and lazy when it comes to updating this thing right now. I went home last weekend for the first time that wasn’t a holiday in probably a year. Yay for that, Beckley is still Beckley, and for some reason my spell checker on here doesn’t think Beckley is spelled correctly. Well it is wrong.
In other news, my two week spring break is rapidly approaching. And out move to a new house is even more so rapidly approaching. I think I have cleaned out two tubs and will use those for the move. Other than that I haven’t done a darn thing in getting ready to move here. As sadly enough that is coming up in a matter of two weeks or so.
Also, I finally have my soccer games on file. Yay for that. I will be hopefully putting them on here for everyone’s enjoyment (and for future bosses enjoyment to listen and say “I want to hire this kid”). I won’t put full game on here unless I feel like it. It won’t be a streaming download type of deal. More of a right-click and download onto your own computer deal. I don’t own the bandwidth for any internet streaming…or maybe I do. I will have to check into that. As far as basketball games being put on here that is another story for another day. I have them on tape, but not CD right now. Gotta work on that really.
Nothing too new going on here…very busy all across the board with class, work, and radio station stuff…and not to mention job searching. I’ve been searching more and more as of late and I have posted my resume on many sites. I am slowly working on a site on here to contain all of my broadcasting samples. I am waiting to get my soccer games on file to cut up here. Once those are up I will let you all know!
Other things going on…this Tuesday at 7 pm (6 CT) I will be traveling to Pittsburgh to do more play-by-play for the women’s basketball team as the will battle with Pitt. This will actually be my third play-by-play game in a row as of late. I called a game yesterday as the ladies defeated USF. I am battling a sore throat right now so if you heard last night’s game, I am sorry, my voice wasn’t the best…but thankfully it is feeling a little better right now. Let’s hope by Tuesday night it will be fine and ready to go.
Lastly on the menu here tonight, we here at 109 Rystan Place will soon be moving into a new house. Yup, a year here in Rystan Place was enough for us all I suppose. I don’t have the address of the new joint but I will have that for you in the coming weeks. Yes, I said weeks…we should be on the move within the next three weeks or so I believe. And by the looks of things it may need more time! Maybe.
Here are some photos of the new place. It is almost done!
