God is good!

I am thrilled to share that I got the internship that I applied for this summer!

About a month ago, an advertising internship opportunity came my way. It was with the Student Media Group which is based in Newark, Delaware. I applied for it, participated in a 3 round interview process, and got a call yesterday that I had been chosen for the position. Even though the offices are in Delaware, they give the opportunity to students in college towns all aross the US. What I will be doing all summer long is going around to Starkville businesses and try and get them to place ads in the Plan-It Planner that you can buy in places like Barnes and Noble, The Lodge, etc. I will also be helping them create the ideal ad that best suites them. This is not how I was planning to spend my summer, however, this opportunity came my way and I am thrilled to have this experience! I will be traveling to Clemson University to start training in about a week, and then I come back to Starkville and start working. As a PR major, it is very important to partake in internships and have a little experience before hitting the "real world" with full force. So yep, I'm excited about this internship and about living in Starkville this summer!

In other news, today is my best friend Kathryn Cox's BIRTHDAY! She is the big 2-1 and I can't wait to go to Starkville Thursday (tomorrow) and celebrate with her and all of my other friends. It's been a long time coming for us with late summer birthdays, and it is LESS than a month until mine :) Even though I feel like such a baby and I feel like I am so behind everyone, the majority of my friends' birthdays are right along mine so that is sort of a relief!

Happy happy birthday sweet Kathryn! I love you!

And have a good rest of the week to you allllllllllll!

FINALS ARE OVER! Maybe now that I am out for the summer, I will hopefully blog more. I love to blog, but it was so hard to find time to do it when you are living with 7 other girls and 190284792 down the hall.

Speaking of, along with being done with school, I have officially moved out of the Delta G house. It was a bittersweet thing. I LOVED living in the house Fall semester. Loved it. However, Spring semester wasn't quite the same. By the time Spring Break came along... it was crazy. I just wanted my own space and quietness. So that is what I mean by bittersweet. I will always be thankful that I did have that experience because in the end, it was a great one. I have a lot of memories from my sweet roomies! I can't wait to have an apartment next year with Alyson and Leah. Anddd our friends Katherine, Kathryn, and Kelsey will be right next door (almost).

As for my summer plans, I will probably be taking summer school in June. If I don't get my summer internship, that is. Let's all cross our fingers on this one :/

Let's have a catch up, shall we?

So since my last post, things have gotten a little crazy around here. Since the semester was coming to an end, I tried to go to every last social function we had. We had our last formal of the semester, and Mathletes vs. Athletes swap. Of course, I chose to be an Athlete because it was the easiest (is that bad?) so I borrowed Hank's soccer jersey. Semi-formal was an absolute BLAST! It was, hands down, the best formal yet. I wish they were all as much fun as this past one. It was also the seniors last one. I am so sad that they all will be leaving :( it just doesn't seem right! And to go along with that statement..... We are SENIORS. Crazy crazy crazy... I don't know if I'm ready for all that.

So I will leave ya'll with some pictures. Have a great week :)



Roommates next year!
