Sunday afternoon, I walked across the stage and completed my December goal: I did the dang thing. Now, I am sitting in the airport terminal - I think I just set a new travel PR; from the time I stepped into O'hare Airport to the time I got cleared in security was approximately 9 minutes … Continue reading Graduation Day
I never thought I'd see the day - here we are at the very last Grad School Goals post. I graduate (!!) in less than 14 days (!!!) and then two days later I am off to France for a much needed (and dare I say deserved?) break. Cheers to the next 14 days of … Continue reading Grad School Goals & Life Updates: December
As my days at the ILC are winding down (*tears*), this will be my final installment of my "day in the life of an intern" post series. Let me forewarn you that I did an absolutely terrible job at remembering to take pictures of what I was doing on this day, so I apologize for … Continue reading A Day in the Life of an Intern: Monday, November 18
The days are getting shorter and the weather is getting colder; autumn is most definitely upon us in Illinois. Somehow, the last twelve weeks have passed in the blink of an eye and there are a mere six weeks left until graduation...ready or not, post-grad life is approaching (p.s. I'm not ready). Thankfully, I've still … Continue reading Grad School Goals & Life Updates: November
I'm back again with another "Day in the Life of an Intern" blog post (if you missed my first one, you can find it here). Here’s a taste of what I am currently doing and working on at my internship at the Illinois Leadership Center (ILC). 7:45am – Just like my last post, my day … Continue reading A Day in the Life of an Intern: Tuesday, October 15
While the intern life is by no means the most extravagant, it's a good time nonetheless! Here's a taste of what I am currently doing and working on at my internship at the Illinois Leadership Center (ILC). 7:45am - Even though I don't have to be at my internship until 9am, I work the opening … Continue reading Day in the Life of an Intern: Thursday, September 12
Y'all, not only is this my very last "Grad School Goals" blog post (until the fall semester at least), but it's also my 100th blog post!! It's hard to believe that I've had this blog for almost two years now; I consider myself quite lucky to be able to share a little bit of my … Continue reading Grad School Goals & Life Updates: April
Holy moly, it's already March! While January felt slow, February flew by in the blink of an eye. I've been thoroughly enjoying spending the last two weeks with L, and while that has meant I didn't 100% succeed in accomplishing my February goals, it's been worth it 🙂 As per usual, let's start with a … Continue reading Grad School Goals & Life Updates: March
Hello everyone and happy February (aka the month L comes to visit for 2 weeks!!). Can you believe we are already in month #2 of 2019? Wow, time is flying. I'm going to start this post out being completely honest - I don't even want to recap my January goals with y'all because, while I … Continue reading Grad School Goals & Life Updates: February
It's that time again! The new semester has begun - today is actually my first day of class - and it's time to make some goals for my first month back. Since I only have two weeks of January left, my goals for this month are going to be pretty minimal and standard, but still … Continue reading Grad School Goals & Life Updates: January
