Summer Update

Hey there! How’s your summer coming along? Hope it’s been an awesome, eventful, fun-filled summer! So much has happened from the last time I was on here, and I apologize for not updating you…but I’m here now:
 Spring 2010 semester ended on a good note with good grades.
 Still did not get any offers for summer internship positions, but my spring internship got extended till August so I’m hanging in there.
 Started sending out applications for the fall semester, had a couple of interviews here and there and just yesterday, got an offer for Y&R that’s ad speak for Young & Rubicam; one of the well known ad agencies in the NY area with offices all over the world.
 My last semester in college begins in August and I’m looking forward to graduating in December. Hopefully the job market improves drastically by then.
 Trying to decide between going to do NYSC (National Youth Service Corps) and applying to grad school for fall 2011. Hmmm decisions… decisions!!!
 In the mean-time, I’m looking for a side-gig to earn some $$$. Any form of business venture, temp-assistantship, hourly or per-diem kind of position let me know 

Well, that’s about it for now. So far summer has been fun and hot! and I am NOT looking forward to the cold fall/winter weather, and everyday that goes by I realize the days of being layered up and bound in woolen apparel are drawing near *sigh*
Enjoy the rest of your day and stay hydrated!
Best,
Yvonne!
