So first things first... Excluding my song post from last night (which is such a great song), it has been almost a year since I've written on this thing. I've really meant to. I even kept thinking of things to say, changed my background to get me excited to start blogging again, but then I wouldn't follow through because well, it's summer and who's gonna read it? However, I'm ignoring that fact and am going to try and start writing every so often.
So the title of this blog basically sums up my summer. I'm slowly realizing that work & the big girl world are actually nothing like my favorite shows & books (Friends, Sex & the City, I heart New York, etc.). Have you noticed that those people never actually go to their jobs? They just talk about them and what's going on at their place of business. Always seems so fun :) Don't get me wrong, growing up and having my first big girl job has been a great experience and I've learned things about myself and the work world, but you actually have to wake up early and sacrifice working out and other things you love. I was honestly hoping that wouldn't be the case :) I always hoped the situation would be similar to Carrie or Rachel. That I would dress in cute business clothes and wake up early to work out and go to lunch with my girlfriends on our breaks.
Regardless of the fact that I have to wake up early and that I'm not as fashionable as Carrie Bradshaw, this summer internship has been incredibly beneficial. I got to do a lot of writing, which I honestly love to do, I got to help do research on photographers & guerilla marketing, and most importantly, I got to meet the people that Amanda talks about when she comes home everyday. I love putting a face to a name!
So with the summer wrapping up, looking for another internship and permanent jobs has been something I've been looking into a lot! Even though I've realized the working world isn't necessarily gonna be all cupcake like, I am excited to see where the next year takes me and whether I will get one of my "dream jobs."
