he moves his words like a prize fighter

I think I might actually be getting my shit together! This semester I'm hitting the books hard and it's paying off in terms of good grades and recognition of my writing in journalism! I'm very excited.

I am currently trying to get an internship in the Senate for the spring semester. Odd, I know, but it should be a wise move if I want to land an internship in Lansing this summer. Most of the PR firms around here deal with political campaigns and issues because of Lansing being the capital. I think getting a hand in there and making some contacts and working hard would pay off. I also applied for a PR position with a semi-professional sports organization, which I won't take if I have to travel for since I have no time, and since they are in Jackson it'll probably not work out. But... it would be cool to work in sports PR.

After all that I'd take an entire semester off and rock Australia. Well, I'd take classes there too, but honestly it'd be a semester long break from the wild world of public relations. Plus, I could probably get some scuba diving in! I know I'm going to have a hard few years after college, agencies are a bitch but the best way to learn, so I may as well get some good fun in while I can. (Apparently I'm hella motivated for life right now, so if you need any encouragement, look no further!)

Is this me figuring out my life... having more than a one semester plan? I think... maybe!

And on a scary note, we learned about the type of injuries you can get scuba diving today. They are pretty intense. Luckily injuries are pretty rare unless you are doing something stupid. Ooo and I signed up to be in the class next semester where we take a weekend and go on 5 open water dives to complete my certification. I will be a certified scuba diver by next semester! Adventurous life, here I come.

but you're gonna have to serve somebody]
