Today was my last day at my internship with the Governator. Overall I would say it has been an absolutely wonderful experience: it was my first real internship, I got to live on my own in a new place (and not under campus's rules), I got to experience living with new people who were strangers before...

My parents came up to visit me and my brother this weekend for the 4th and my birthday (which was yesterday). We went into San Francisco for the day and explored around, and then came back to Davis for a local fireworks show that was probably the best I have ever seen. It was really nice to see my family...

I know I said I would post this on Monday, but I had it saved and forgot to go back into the system and publish it! Oops! Anyway, my internship so far is really cool. In a nutshell, I read the news and send emails. But what I *really* do is keep the government of California in the "know" of...

So far, outside of my internship (about which I will write tomorrow), my summer has consisted of me spending a lot of time either reading by the pool of my apartment complex, or hanging out on my couch watching tv. It's not so bad, but finding a job has been a real struggle. I've applied to 16...

So...I'm at home in America's Finest City, however my bags are packed up and ready to go again. Well, it's not time to go back to school just yet, but I am however moving to northern California to intern for the Governator himself! I'll be working in the newsroom being legitimately productive...

Ha! You thought you were rid of me for good! Wellll turns out you're stuck with me until the end of the summer. Look for posts about the second part of my internship with the BBA, the art class I signed up for at the Indianapolis Art Center, the wedding I'm in in June, and a trip or two to Chicago...

I just need everyone to know that I am currently sitting outside on a bench, looking at daffodils that have just started to grow. Springtime is amazing. Things have felt sort of "off" lately. Apparently, I'm not alone - I guess this feeling of becoming distant and disconnected is just part...

....lucky for me, I only have to do it three times a week!! Through my two internships at Butler, I've definitely discovered that I DO NOT want a conventional 8-5 desk job. It would literally make me fall asleep. Other than some early mornings, the Accelerator is working out well because I get to...

7:00 a.m.: alarm goes off 7:00:14 a.m.: snooze button is pushed 7:07 a.m.: alarm goes off again. crap. get out of bed. 7:55 a.m.: leave for client site for internship. 12:40 p.m.: go to lunch with internship mentor and project manager. 1:15 p.m.: go back to client site. 4:00 p.m.: go back to the BBA...

Finals are in full swing and everyone's a little tense. Unnnnlessss you're a senior and you only have two finals, both of which you're allowed to bring a cheat sheet to!!!! My Corporate Finance and Consumer Behavior finals are both tomorrow, but I get a one-page, two-sided paper with anything...
