Creating a domain and website.

Since I am in college it is very important for me to take advantage of every opportunity I can get my hands on. As a student and now changing my major I have to be able to work fast meaning that I will be working on getting internships for  television networks, radio stations, or online magazines, anything that can help me further my career once I graduate. As a public relations major I think starting a blog, number one is a great start for internships to see my dedication and starting my own website, number two will show that I am not only dedicated but it shows that I believe in myself. But my biggest problem is what domain name to use, my real name or (Hazelin Avani) catchy name I've used for myself for about four years? I have a few months before I actually create my website because I am planning to have it launched possibly for new years. Another question, which company should I buy my domain from? I worry about hackers and making sure that I am getting the best quality for my money. Also, is it easy to set up? Just some concerns I am having. Any suggestions please comment.

I quit T.G.I Fridays

Its summer vacation and I am back in Largo, Maryland , others refer to as the "DMV". As I've mentioned in my previous post I am currently attending Clark Atlanta University located in Atlanta, Georgia. For some who are not aware Atlanta is in its prime right now an upcoming city attracting plenty of tourist and businesses especially in the media.

Anyway, I am back at home in my parents house and one of my goals for this summer was to hopefully land a summer job.Well, that is exactly what I did early June of 2012 but unfortunately with lack of communication I ultimately end up quitting literally a month later. I think I've come to far in my life, being in college and getting more experience from some what of a real world I could not let myself go back to a job that treated their employees with little to no respect. I dont know what it was about T.G.I fridays but it was an eye opener of what not to do. Don't drop out of school and truly find your passion.I think thats why I am here now.

I go to a very expensive university (34,000$ per year) and I need to advantage of the opportunities that I am ever so fortunate to land. That is what has brought me here. I have a tumblr that I am addicted to and a twitter that reminds me to tweet my heart out till my fingers are numb. I'm not sure if it is cause of the generation I am in but I could spend hours on the computer for free ...so why not get paid to do so?
