Fall 2009

The fall semester has officially begun! I'm taking 4 classes and an internship for a total of 15 credits, which is up there! I changed my track from Editing to Visual Communication within the journalism major, which really just means I'll be taking a few different classes than originally planned and my portfolio requirements to graduate are slightly different. I decided I really enjoy page layout and design as opposed to copy editing, so I'm excited about it! I have French I Monday and Wednesday afternoons, Page Design Monday nights, Visual Communication Wednesday mornings and Informational Graphics Wednesday nights. Then, I work 11am- 5pm Tuesdays and Thursday at the Orlando Business Journal, where I'm interning this fall. Which leaves Friday, Saturday and Sunday to work, homework, writing and sometimes some rest and fun.
Today I was elected secretary for Ed2010, our campus magazine club which is a campus chapter of a much larger organization. It's based off of a website called Ed2010.com that helps young magazine interns and students to land their magazine dream job!
I really like my internship so far. It's tough but I'm enjoying the hard work! I've already interviewed some pretty impressive people and once the issues are printed, I'll share my articles!
I can't believe how fast time is going by! I'm looking forward to a lot of things coming up though! Megan's bridal shower and bachelorette party, Aunt Kathy coming back to Florida, Alyssa coming to visit for her 21st birthday, Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, my mom and Jason coming to visit, Megan and Danny's wedding, Thanksgiving and before you know it it'll be Christmas and this semester will be over and I will officially be a senior with less than a year left! Can't wait!
