I received an internship offer from a prestigious federal agency that I would be so happy to work for last week. I am waiting to hear back on another position I applied for at another company which would also be another fantastic opportunity; I will find out on Monday whether or not I have an internship offer from them. Either way, I will have something great lined up for next semester, internship-wise. Needless to say, I’m really excited. Talk about wonderful news before Thanksgiving break!
This week has been crazy hectic. I had the majority of my second-to-last “big” assignments due this past week, as all my deadlines after Thanksgiving break are for final projects, papers, and/or exams. The funny thing is, all of my assignments that were due this week were all due on Wednesday. Considering that I got straight from 9a.m. to 8p.m. on most Tuesdays without a break, this was a bit of a problem (especially since this past Tuesday I wasn’t free till 9p.m. to start doing homework!). Luckily, I got all my work done (although that last essay I handed in was looking a little rough around the edges, but I didn’t have time to fix it up as nice as I’d have liked to).
Either way, I’m so glad that this coming week is Thanksgiving break. I am leaving on Monday to go to Indianapolis to spend the holiday with my boyfriend and his family. I’m ecstatic about the prospect of a week where I won’t have to worry about going to class, interning, working, doing homework, etc. I mean, I slept for 12 hours straight last night, which is a definite sign that something is awry with my sleep schedule. (I do feel rather refreshed thanks to such a full night’s sleep, though!) Plus, I’m excited to see see my boyfriend’s family; they are so lovely and it will help me with missing my own family. (My family is probably as scattered we will ever be right now – I’m in DC, my mom is in Hong Kong, and my brother is in Hawaii.)
It will be a wonderful Thanksgiving break. I’m really looking forward to it.
wow well done you! Have a great break
Congratulations! If anything, you should totally just catch up on sleep during Thanksgiving. Sleeping 12 hours straight means that you haven’t been getting enough.
I hope that you family will get together soon! It must be difficult if they’re scattered all over the world.
Yay! That is super news about the work!
I hope you enjoy your time with your family during the break.
