Sweet Summertime

This summer will be filled with possibilities. There are so many things I am looking forward to that I don't even know where to begin. I guess the first exciting thing is that I will not be returning to school in the fall. With this in mind, I will approach this summer as a new beginning to my life. There will be no anticipation of what classes I have to take next semester or worry about summer school. When this summer begins, I will be a college graduate.

With this in mind, I have a summer internship at South Magazine. As of right now, I am unsure of when I start or how much I will be getting paid. I do know that I will be a web intern meaning I will be writing stories specifically for the web and uploading blogs and videos to their website. Although it is not a real "job" it is a start and it also provides me something to do while I am looking for a real career. I figure one of two things can happen upon completion of my internship.

1) I could be hired at South Magazine and continue there
or
2) I could make connections and obtain more experience so when I am finished with my internship, I will be able to find a job.

I suppose the last and most trivial thing I am looking forward to about the summer is finally moving on with my life. I am planning on finally moving in with my boyfriend of 3 years and hopefully soon after, we can get a dog. I know this sounds trivial and unimportant but I am very much looking forward to it. It will be an exciting next step in my road to becoming a "grown up".
