End of it All.

Well, I guess it is the end of it all... my college career is over, no more child-like behavior, from now on it's interviews and responsibilities. At first, I was all set to graduate, nothing was going to stop me, but now all I can think about is what I could have done to make it better. I complained a lot and fought a lot, but I could have avoided it all. It's too bad that I have regrets, but I know if I just linger then I'd just be upset with myself for the next few weeks.

I've been thinking about what I wanted to do and where I wanted to go. I have this idea for the summer, but I'm not sure where it will go. As of right now, I'm waiting upon Discovery which seems to be a smaller chance as each day goes on, but I know that one day, I'll be able to get to where I want to be and be back at that company. I have a temp job set up just in case I don't get Discovery, but I'm not sure as to where to go from here. This will be my last summer. Ever. No more 120 day summers, which I haven't had for the past 3 years, and no more spare time. Should I travel for two months, go back to the temp agency and start work then? Or should I just begin work right out of college? I know what people want me to do, but after I spoke with my mother, she didn't seem too worried if I got a job or not. It's as if she didn't care. I'll have to talk to them again to be sure, but if this is the case...then I think I might go for it. See Paris one last time, go to beautiful places of northern Europe and sunbath on the Mediterranean beaches? It all seems go glamorous, but I'll need a travel partner and money. Should I work for a few months, stop, then travel? I don't know! My brain is fussing with me and as I sit here, I should be finishing my last project of the semester, but all I can think about is what comes after.

What does come after? I know there are those sternies that graduate with jobs in the financial district starting at 60 grand a year, but I'm not one of those people. I don't like my cookie cutter lifestyle. I want to do exciting things, I want to live in LA and Paris for a few years. It's time for a change. I just don't know how to tell the people that are close to me that this is my next step. I don't know.

Social Media ADD

So, because I have an obsession with moving from one thing to the next, or what some may call, ADD, I've created a tumblr because...well, just because. It can house my more fleeting thoughts as well as photographs and spur of the moment quote I find on tumbler anyway.

I'll still be resorting back to blogspot for my longer and more thoughtful posts. However, I do doubt there will be many posts this month as everything in my academic career and the beginning of my actual career begins this month, well, the month of April.

I'm going be excusing myself this month from any longer posts this month as I have 6 presentations, 6 papers which includes my thesis, and 2 finals in the next 30 days. Work has begun to make me worry about whether or not my chances will be good in obtaining a job at Discovery, so I'll be working longer and harder the last 2 weeks. Plus, graduation is around the corner. I need to focus.

All in all, the past month except for Puerto Rico has basically been the same. Seeing as I've been cheated a year and am being an overachiever in taking a number of classes, my social life will be nonexistent. I choose not to post, because if I do write anything longer, I'm sure they'll all be rants about how I hate my life and school, which isn't very acceptable anymore.

Growing up is difficult. If you know of any jobs that would suit me well, although I doubt it, feel free to contact me. Otherwise, I'll be applying for anything and everything that comes my way. Granted they're fields I'm interested in.

Wish me luck.

Return to Daily Routine.

Last week was the most relaxing week I've had in a long time. Yes, no intense anger, just a few itty bickers, but all in all, a great time all around in Puerto Rico. We visited a few places in Puerto Rico, explored the Rio de Camuy Cueva Clara, went hiking in the El Yunque rainforest, swimming on a beach that looked like the setting for lost, explored an old city, and of course, peaceful sleep. I'm not a picture -taking kind of person. I steal pictures from my friends. I only take pictures in places I know I don't want to forget aka Paris. Hah. Paris again. Anyways, I brought some homework, but none of it got done, so now it's back to the final month of school. I don't know if I'll go back to school, so as of now, this is the last month of school..ever. I am freaking out now. But, problem is, I can't bring myself to do any work. It's the homestretch and I'm lazy. What gives?! The sun probably. Oh well, time to get back into to groove of things and frantically search for a job on top of all the schoolwork I have to do. Why do teachers like to pile all of the workload in the last two weeks of school? They're just asking for procrastinated-half-assed work.

BLAH. This is my lazy post.

Phew. A break.

Hello old friends. Due to my exceptionally busy schedule and just lack of time, I haven't been able to update. Fortunately enough, it's SPRING BREAK! My last one too, I'm afraid. I'm gypped of one. UNFAIR. So, leading up to today, it's really just been, school & work, school & work therefore, I am due for a nice long sun-filled break. I'm currently in Jersey right now visiting my parents because it's my mother's birthday the day I leave. She's okay with it though. Weird.

Moving on. School has been over in my mind since the day it started this semester. I'm working on my thesis, trying to be interested in my PR class, trying to attend my EMI (Entertainment & Media Industries) class, and trying to stay healthy while I juggle these endless papers on top of my internship. I've been managing well lately, I'm proud of myself..to some extent. There's only two months left until graduation! May 10th and May 12th. Yes, I graduate twice. It's great, get the use of my gown ya'know. It's $50 dollars to rent! Crazy.

In terms of job searching, I've had people offer me internships, which I don't want. I have to contact a few people from job fairs because they said they would contact me and if I didn't hear, I should reach out to them. So, that's what I'm doing. Discovery is being good to me. I've learned a lot about selling, how to work around things, time management, and met lots of different people. The people at Discovery really make the company, they're all happy and want to be there. Weird, right? It makes me want it more! My boss and I have been getting along quite well, I'd like to call her my "third mentor"--we're assigned two from the start. Another one of mine just returned from getting married (!!) and the other is working her butt off because...well it's her job. She's good at it. I don't blame her.

Asides from Midterms week, I've had a lovely time in New York, despite the cold weather. I love meeting new people and going to places I've never been. I explored the LES bars and EV bars. I'm not an alcoholic, but a few drinks are always nice after a long day. New favorites are Bua and Piano's Bar. Always a little crowded, but usually a good time. My friend's girlfriend has been visiting for a month, she left last Wednesday (sad). It doesn't matter though, because we had a great time, I met a few more European people to add to my list of friends across the pond, and just enjoyed spur of the moment activities with the girl. Always a good time.

Then there's food. Always food. I've eaten at Congee Village, Cafe Orlin, IchiUmi, May's, Pommes Frites, Flea Market Cafe, Westville East, La Palapa, amongst so many others. I can't even begin to describe the multiple food-gasms I've had. Kat has always introduced me to new places to eat, and I love her for it. Food is a huge staple in my life because well, that's the only time I'm able to see people or they're able to see me. Again, always a good time.

Well, now I'm at home, bumming around, posting on my blog. I leave for Puerto Rico on Monday and return Friday. I don't expect to take pictures, but that's how I am (unless it's Paris of course). I'm excited for so much sun and just absolute relaxation. To end this, I will post some epic photographs. Ciao.

The Latest Sunday.

Song of the Week: Rihanna's Te Amo

I understand my pictures were a bit eclectic in choice. They didn't complement each other in any way. Plus it was just dumb. Now, I'll try to stick to a theme yes?
