As I had subtly mentioned in my previous post, I've got a new internship. Today was my first day and I love it. Some of you are probably thinking, "Why a home decor magazine?" Well, why not? I love opportunities that can expand my art and especially my magazine horizon--while you know, getting my web 2.0 geek-on!
New semesters are like new years. Oh. Wait. It is the new year, but you know what I mean. Every semester I have a "resolution." This semester's resolution is to budget. I'm a tad-bit low on cash and food is no longer a necessity, but a luxury. I've slipped up a couple of times by giving the hair dresser a too-big of a tip and buying almond M&Ms when I can clearly survive without them (or can I?). And although my internship will beat up my wallet and add to my financial burden, in the long run I think it will be worth it.
So except for my financial state, my semester has been off to a good start. How is everyone else?

My semester has started off relatively well, I think. So far not too many "bad" grades... haha. I think it's great that you got an internship at House Beautiful! It'll help you learn more about magazine and publishing industry and you'll learn more about style and such! Congrats to you!
ReplyDeleteOh and BTW, I'm hosting a Valentine's Day contest and I would love it if you entered! Please check back at my blog for more details!
I love house beautiful! (i'm a subscriber)-- i love getting inspiration for home decor. gosh, you're going to have so many amazing internships under your belt by the time we enter the "real world" :)
ReplyDeleteYou have the best internships! my school is posting me to an insurance company during gthe holidays :(
ReplyDeleteHi there-Wishing you great success with the new internship, I'm sure it will be very exciting!
ReplyDeleteohh congrats on your internship! i do have a soft spot for interior design.
ReplyDeleteand NO you cannot (and should not) live without M&Ms!!!
congratulations on the new internship! and why not home decor...there's def. creative and design elements involved. i love home decor.
ReplyDeleteOoh, nice score! There's so much about interior design/decoration that fascinates me.
ReplyDeleteMy semester has only begun and I already feel as if I'm running to keep up!
congrats on the new internship!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your internship! I remember not being able to afford to eat anything in college but peanut butter and crackers and on really special weeks, tuna and crackers, which was HELL for a foodie like me, so you have my sympathies! :( But I'm glad things are going well for you otherwise. My semester's good, and mostly uneventful, but I expect all that to change in April! It's all a matter of keeping sane until then, I think.
ReplyDeleteI miss you too. We need to find time to have lunch or something.
ReplyDeleteLet's see. My semester is hectic because I have class MWF and intern TTh. My internship is crazy b/c we're preparing for fashion week, and I don't plan on sleeping until after it's over. Plus, there's snow on the ground...kill me!
Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI've always like interior design. I just don't think I'd be good at it.
