Today i’m linking up with Cinnamon for Tiki Sunday. You should link up too! No rules…just blog and link!
Ho-ly crap.
Tomorrow I start my marketing internship. What a whirlwind of a fall.
- I didn’t get into the MBA program that I had been taking prerequisite classes for 1 year for.
- I didn’t get the internship at Haberman that I thought I nailed during the interview (which, by the way, I never heard from them even after calling them…how rude).
- I got cut from my money-making bartending shifts because some people decided to pull seniority, even after they constantly call me to the bar and ask how to make certain drinks (if you can’t make a long island, you shouldn’t bartend).
Then…
- I got accepted into the Strategic Communications Management masters program and am loving it! I learned that the MBA program was not for me. I’m not looking for bland accounting and economics classes. My creative mind just couldn’t handle that.
- Thanks to the masters program, I was able to attain an internship with a fellow student at Frontier Communications. It’ll be a 45 minute drive in each direction for me, daily. And it may not be the company of my dreams, but I’ve been searching for this opportunity since 2008 and it’s about damn time. I’m anxious and thrilled to start tomorrow!
- Due to the internship, I changed my availability at the golf course so that I don’t have to deal with their petty politics and seniority-trumping style scheduling.
I have to say, my weddings planning business has definitely been set on the back burner. I was creating an opportunity for myself since I was so sick of applying for jobs and internships with no bites. A girl can only take rejection for so long before she molds her own path. I haven’t forgotten about it but I do believe it will be completely on hold while I do this year-long internship along with school and furthering my relationship with Andy.
It’s been a crazy last few months and I can only foresee life getting busier and more out-of-control…this truly is the start of something magical and I’m thrilled to share it with you all! Though I may not blog as often as I used to, I appreciate your patience and support!
Today I will be doing homework, running some errands and preparing my outfit and lunch for tomorrow’s first day! I’ll also be watching my precious MN Vikings get dominated by the Packers. As much as I have faith in my Vikes, I also am realistic and know when we’ve met our match. This season has turned into a joke and the sooner they get rid of McNabb (who is not playing today) the sooner we can turn the team around from being a “nursing home” joke. Ugh. Anyway…Skol Vikings!

Wow – you’ve had a lot going on! I hope the internship goes well for you – and that you don’t have to make your long trek through the Crosstown/35 interchange or the 94 mess or any of those places (which can turn a seemingly okay commute into awfulness!)
Have fun watching the game I’m wearing my purple and gold scarf at work, and have decided it’s okay if I don’t watch. Every game I’ve watched so far has been awful, so maybe I’ve been a bad luck charm?
Hehehe…. SKOL!!!!
Well then girlie….it DOES sound like a bit of a roller coaster for you lately. But it sounds like you’ve landed somewhere that you’ll be able to do something with. Although I have all the confidence in the world in you. No matter what happens, you’ve always got a Plan B. I’m proud of ya !!
Thanks for stopping by the hut !
XOXO
