Walk down memory lane

And it was on this day in 2013 that I finished my last class as a student at the University of Utah.

I handled it with grace:

Okay, so I was a complete basket case. WHAT ELSE IS NEW? But really. I have been thinking back on what I was feeling this very day last year, mostly thoughts and anxiety of the unknown. I didn’t have any job prospects – or a clear view on what I really wanted.

I think of myself now and how much I have learned this past year since moving to NYC and working. It’s SO much! I am really grateful to be where I am and getting the opportunity to continually learn new things, push myself farther, and have a somewhat less foggy view on what I really want.

I LOVE YOU,

B

Well, today is my last day on campus. I took it well:
Wait, backing up a second. Check out my super-awesome-can’t-believe-it’s-not-an-A-spot-parking spot I scored on my last day:

I’ll miss you too, U campus parking. (NOT)

Anywho – I wrapped up my Absolute Communication class today. Here are some pics, pre bawling:

Now that it’s all over, I feel (and literally) look like this:

On to the next,

Catching upsies.

Just going to dust off here old blog again.

So, to start where I left off, on Friday I went to my internship and had a grand ole time! Afterwards, I got some take away and came home and crashed out. Despite being bothered by my partying neighbors, I rested up and relaxed. On Saturday, I went on a sibling day date with Meli and Mark. We went and got some lunch at Chipotle and then went and saw Django Unchained. So glad that I got to spend time with mah fam.

After the movie, I made my way east and attended my friend Rachel’s bridal shower. It was lots of fun and I got to see Katie who was visiting from out of town! We were just a little bit excited to see each other….

Sunday was the big easter dinner. I remember my mom always getting a honey-baked ham (like, the legit kind), making a bunny cake and potato salad. Wish that little bunny was here in UT this year. I got and gave lots of hugs and cuddles:

This week has been really busy. On Monday, I worked on a project and stayed at work until 7p.m. – on Tuesday, a SVP from Cohn & Wolfe came to my Absolute Communication class to talk to us. Very interesting! On Wednesday my professor and a few students and I had lunch with Sacheen (the SVP from Cohn & Wolfe) and we got to ask her any/all professional questions we had. My favorite things she said were to take advantage of everything – That even though it’s expensive, no amount of expense could ever not be worth the experience of living in New York – Know the opportunities and things you want to get and make those opportunities for yourself.Â
