A couple of big announcements you guys might or might not want to hear about!!
First, (which I am SO excited about!!

) I'm pretty sure I have secured myself for an internship over the summer!!

It's at an actual video company founded by the guy who helped produce shows like The Deadliest Catch and more! They're currently working on The Longest Swim and that's what I'll be working on helping them get up and running this summer! (They're a relatively new company so that's why they need all these interns!) I'll be working in areas like TV/Film Production, Graphic Design, Photography, Video Editing, Audio Recording, Web Design, Studio Operations, Marketing and more!!
It's a 8-12 weeks program with 15-20 hours a week. Today was the orientation and I got to meet about 10 new people who work in various departments of the company. There's John, who works in marketing, and then there's his son, a brilliant kid named Sam. Yes, really. And the main guy running the internship even made a point of telling everyone that his nickname is Sammy!! xD I find this utterly entertaining and now I really want to ask if he has a brother named Dean
Secondly, although I've already mentioned it casually in previous journals, next Spring (2013) I will be studying abroad in Florence, Italy for 3 months (with my sister an possibly my friend)!! January 30th through April 30th! It'll be really expensive (hence working and saving up like a boss this summer) but if we save up enough we will be able to travel to London over Spring break, where my best-friend will also be studying abroad and I will also be able to meet *

So pretty much my life will consist of working as an unpaid intern, working for a scant amount of money at Curves, attempting to maintain a gym/exercise schedule, catching up on Supernatural (need to start season 3 -OHMYHOLYGOODNESS THE END OF SEASON TWO MADE ME BAWL) and drawing a manga this summer. This is the fist time I'll have a routine over summer
I'm kinda nervous because I'm so used to sitting on my butt on the couch all day on break
eating and drawing and generally being a lazy ass
I'll keep you posted on how that goes ;D
Anyways, I kind gave up on my finals last week. My final projects for Video Editing and Web Design were due the week before so all I really had to do was study for my real "academic" classes. Wednesday was my History class and I already had an A in the class so I assumed no matter what I did on the final I would still pass. I hope I didn't assume wrong

Same goes for my Statistics class- my teacher said at the beginning of the year if we attended every single class we'd get extra credit. So Tuesday we got a Progress Report and he said for the perfect attendance students, that grade was the lowest grade we could get in the class-regardless of how we did on the final! He said we didn't even have to take the final! Only show up for class! So I had an 89.5% (still only a B o_o) so I went and took the final anyways- I wanted to try and bump my grade up that extra .5% so I could have an A!! I hope I got it
either way I did well in a math class for the first time since middle school so yay

SO. The point being
SUMMERRRRRRRR!!! *wild fangirl screeches echo into the empty house*
