And so it begins!

So many things are happening for me this year! Great friends. Fun memories. A lot of learning. California surpassed my expectations 10-fold. I continue to fall more in love with this city every day. Today marked a milestone. After 8 months in La La Land, I finally got a internship!

Over the past few weeks, I submitted several resumes and cover letters with no response. After a while, started feeling very discouraged. Yesterday, I sent out one more email. Finally. Someone responds. I am very proud to announce that I will be working as an Intern at Period Media, a small entertainment agency in Los Angeles. Firm specializes in design, marketing and public relations for a wide range of clientele. 

The company seems like a perfect fit and has all the attributes I have been looking for. I know I have a lot of work and very busy schedule ahead of me, but I finally feel like I took the first step for my future career in public relations. 


Looking forward to updating you all on my first job in PR!

Much Needed Update!

Hello all.

I apologize for the lack of post. Life continues to be busy as always.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time home over the holidays catching up with friends and of course visiting with my wonderful family. It is amazing to me how much more you can appreciate your family when you are far far away. Oddly enough, home was different. After my first 6 months in California (GASP), Louisiana seemed like a get-away. (Sorry Mom & Dad) I really enjoyed being home, but couldn't wait to get back to La La Land.

Last semester went very well. Aside from having one of the most amazing professors, I made incredible friends who have impacted my time here. All As and a B, even with all my extra-cirruculars. :) CSUN has nothing on LSU, but it is great school. I miss my Tigers and of course, LSU ATHLETICS!!!

Life is good. So much to update. The longer I am here, the more convinced that I will be back. Right now main goal is internship! Scary, Scary, Scary. I can't believe I have less than 3 semesters left and I will be a college graduate. Where does the time go? Seems the older I get, the faster time flies. My only advice, waste none.

Look for more updates in the future.
