My summers used to consist of me working an easy part time job and enjoying my time off from school. This summer was the complete opposite of that. I knew that I needed to obtain an internship in order to expand my resume to get a job after graduation. But what I got was more than just an internship. I met some amazing people that I will always remember. I was given the opportunity to continue with the department as a PAID intern. In my field of Public Relations, it is very rare to find a paid internship, so this is an amazing opportunity. I knew that it would be worth it, and I'm glad to know I was right.
I also accepted two part-time jobs for the summer. It was definitely not planned for me to work so much. I got called back to the second one after starting the first, and they both seemed fun, so I thought I could handle both. Even though I was extremely busy, I liked working with the people I met. I became great friends with most of them and we share many great memories together. This really was a great summer.
I was surprised to know I am able to manage my time very wisely. As much as I worked (I can count on 2 hands how many days I didn't work) I still managed to spend time with my boyfriend and our friends. That was very important to me and I'm glad I was able to handle it. I don't think there is one thing I would change about the last couple of months.
I started watching Pretty Little Liars. It's no Gossip Girl, but it's pretty good. There is so much mystery and I cant wait to find out what's going on. I finally got around to getting Netflix and so far it's been worth it.
School starts in a little over a week. I think I'm finally coming to the realization that I have one year left. In a way I'm ready to get started on a new chapter of my life. I always say once summer is done I'm back to reality. This is the last time i will have a summer vacation and I know I will miss it. Good things are coming my way and I'm so ready for them.
