After not blogging in months, I am now realizing how much I have missed you old friend!! I feel as if I have not been really practicing the art of expressing my thoughts through words... sad. Especially being a journalism major.
A quick update:
I have wrestled with the crazy jungles of Los Angeles. I interned there this summer and had to adapt to my strange surroundings from my scary apartment in Koreatown to the bar scene of Santa Monica, and the strange yet posh corporate scene of mid-Wishire/Beverly Hills. It was amazing and I feel like I have built my knowledge twofold.
This last semester I worked three jobs while also being a student... which led to me working about 75 hours a week and barely having enough time to eat or sleep. How did I do this? Secretly, I was just kinda getting by in my classes not not obsessing over trying to reach A's. But that is the deal as a future advertising professional. Being a student has allowed me to do extracurriculars, like internships and other stuff... and grades are definitely secondary. The only reason why they do matter is because eventually I may want to get an MBA, but no one is going to ask you in an interview what your GPA is over looking at your internship experiences. And if they do judge by this, I am not sure I would want to work for that company.
This last semester has led to my development of crazy survival skills, of which I hope not to lose.
I am now in Austin thinking I will clean up my apartment after about five months of it being in total disarray. How did it get to this point... I have no clue, but I will fix it.
I love all of you my non-exsistent yet dedicated readers!!! :)
