March Madness

Hey There. A ton has happened this month so far, and I've been really busy with classes. I went to Tucson, Arizona for spring break last week, and I spent a large chunk of time doing a creative resume project for my consumer behavior class instead of bask in the sun. But I still have fun anyway! I went hiking at Pima Canyon, Sabino Canyon, and went for a day trip to hike at the Nature Conservatory in Patagonia, Arizona. I love hiking - especially when the weather is beautiful and the scenery is stunning. A lot of my friends went to Ft. Lauderdale, which I hear was fun too.

So good news - I accepted a job this month!!! I'm going to be working at InterCall in Chicago starting on May 24th. That's two weeks after i graduate! Real life is approaching very quickly.

Midterms went alright, but this whole month is very busy due to tests, projects, etc. I'm trying to finish up my IU career with an even higher cumulative GPA than I have now, so we'll see how that goes. I want to make sure I have the option to be accepted into an outstanding MBA program.

That's all of the update I have time for right now because I have to go read a chapter in my International Business textbook before my classes start at 2:30. I'll try to update again soon!

Midterms & Interviews

Spring recruitment season is upon us! Job recruiting, that is. I have not talked much about my job hunt in my blog because I like to keep it fairly private from firms, but I have been very lucky to have been preferenced for an interview by every company that I have been interested in that has come/is coming to campus. I have also been relatively picky about the firms that I chose to interview with, so I am excited that the ones I am interested in are also interested in me!

I was hoping that since spring break is a week later this year, midterms week would be a week later as well. NOPE. Midterms week is STILL right after my birthday. I had a great birthday weekend, but I had to study all day yesterday unfortunately. So my actual birthday was not exciting (Apart from getting a ton of phone calls, texts, and messages from my friends and family!). Today I have a midterm in my Marketing Strategy (M450) class, and tomorrow I have a midterm in my Honors Leadership Seminar (Z494) class. Then Wednesday I have a presentation about Branding for M450, Thursday I have an interview and a paper due in Western European Politics (Y335), and Friday I am driving up to Chicago for an interview. Next week is starting to get just as busy.

I'm getting excited for spring break and going to Tucson on the 12th! Last spring break ever - WEIRD.
