The future (and some news)

FRIDAY 30 NOVEMBER, 2012  /   COMMENTS [10]

I have some pretty big news.

Today is my last day working at my advertising agency Net#work BBDO. I've been here for a year and have loved the people, the cool clients and agency life, but i've also been involved in a lot of cool things outside my day job that have started to take over significantly.

So I took the leap and resigned at the beginning of the month. (eek)

It's a huuge, exciting risk adventure and I think most people think i'm crazy for doing it but why not? Who says you have to work in the corporate world for x years and do this and do that. You don't always have to do what everyone else is doing, and i'm quite keen to give this thing a try ; ) at least while i'm still young and foolish.

I love this quote by E.E. Cummings.

"To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting"

We have a crazy December and a lot of cool things lined up for next year but if you need or know of anyone who needs a freelance photographer or designer please let me know : ) I am available for part time work.

(I'm also pretty keen to change some things around here on EmmaJaneNation in the next few months to make it more awesome and more worth your time ; ) so look out for some new things here too.)
