Nice to blog you.

I did it. I jumped on the bandwagon. I have my reasons for doing so, one being a newly acquired internship (insert HUGE smile).
After all my moving around college campuses and thinking about majors I think I have finally settled on the major for me. And I kinda think I know what I would like to do with the rest of my life. Hopefully.

Back to the internship: it's at St. John's. We will be working with the Media Relations department. We will be helping create a heart video, working with the Sunshine Run, and writing press releases (YAY!) among many other things with those being the most important. Thus the blog. One of my professors told my class last semester that the best way to constantly improve your writing was blogging. I did not get this at first and still am a bit weary, but I'm willing to give it a shot. So in hopes of improving my writing skills here goes nothing.

I say we when referring to my internship because THANKFULLY another girl from Drury got an internship also! I was very excited when I found this out because we had to sit through the physician's and nurse's orientation...so having someone else in the same boat as you and to know was very comforting. I found this out on my way to STL with Drury's DCN last Thursday. SGA and Drury's Alum office made it possible for 11 of us to travel there, eat at a very nice restaurant while networking with STL's finest and stay at the Drury Plaza for FREE! Ah, the perks of Drury! We also visited several angencies the next day to see possible internships available. I can't remember the last time I was stuck with that many women for two whole days. It was the best time! We all had so much fun and I met a lot of new girls that formed into new friendships :).

I can't believe how many references to school and professors in this post I've made! Anyone who knows me, knows I am very skeptical about being a Drury student, but I'm starting to change my mind. It's actually not so bad...but anyway, here's another professor reference. Another one I had last semester always assigned papers ending with this: Never leave a paper without a psychological closer. As basic as that sounds, I had never heard it put that way. It stays with me for every paper I write now. But this is no paper...so I get to break the rules and leave you with a quote instead...

Write it on your heart that today is the best day in the year. -RWE
