Yay!

Thought it was time for a pretty, new layout!

Usually I'm all for Suffolk but I have to say, yesterday was the most boring day of classes EVER. Literally. I sat through 6 presentations between 3 classes and thought I would never make it home. I really wish professors chatted with each other (like teachers used to in high school) to make sure something like 6 presentations don't happen in 1 day; wishful thinking. While it was boring, it also meant that I didn't have to do any homework in preparation for that day.

I've also just planned an East-Over dinner for all the Ambassadors. Our Not Your Average Thanksgiving Dinner was such a success that Jack suggested I host an Easter/Passover Dinner, so I am! I love when all of us get together.

Short and sweet post today!

Oh boy!

With my recent acceptance to Disney in August, I'm facing issues with my apartment and naturally since it's me, these issues are never simple. Basically, my lease runs until August 31st but I have to be out by July 31st since August is so busy I just can't come back to Boston to move out.

I have a couch I bought 2 years ago for the apartment and I feel bad telling my roommate "hey I need to move out so I'm taking the couch." I feel as though it isn't fair to make her, theoretically, sit on the floor to watch tv for the month of August. *sigh* What should I do? I'm open to suggestions. I really don't care about taking the couch with me and I'm not sure if my landlord will let us leave it in the apartment for the next tenants. Personally I like bringing my own furniture to an apartment, not have someone else's.

Other than that battle I need to fight, I've been super busy doing homework for all my classes. Between reading hundreds of pages a week for my Pirates and British Empire classes and preparing cases each week for Small Business Management and Strategic Management, my schedule is pretty full, not to mention I still have to travel to CT to work in the hotel there.

90 days to graduation! Not like I'm counting or anything...

Late but worth the wait!

It's been a while since I've blogged, but I've been so busy in the office I haven't had time! I'm 4 weeks into my last semester at Suffolk and I can hardly believe how fast the past 3.5 years have flown by!

I only have classes on Tuesday's and Thursday's this semester so it opens up my Monday's and Wednesday's to sleep in a bit and then head to the Admissions office to work and give tours. My semester so far has been pretty busy since I've already had 1 exam and 2 presentations! It's a pretty hectic semester but it helps the time go by.

I've also been pretty busy working on what I'll be doing after graduation. It's a pretty big decision and I decided to not go to grad school right away. Instead, I applied for a paid internship in Disney World and was accepted last night. I move down in August and I'm super excited about working in one of their fabulous hotels down there. The program runs until January, so prior to the program ending, I'll apply for a full time job there and then in September of 2011 I'll work on getting my Master's in Hospitality and Tourism. yay!

Not much else has really been going on which makes me feel like a super uncool college Senior but I have had some lovely dinner dates with Beckee and Meg and I'm sure there are plenty more events to come!
