AHHHHH! It is all over, practically. I can't believe I am 1. not working at Solstice anymore 2. not waking up at 7am for my internship, which is also kaput! 3. not in school, yet. I just honestly can't believe it is all over, well at least this chapter in my life. It was all fun while it lasted, and I guess I am ready for the next chapter my life has in store for me. So lets do a little rewind of the previous week, which was practically "GOODBYE" week for me from everyone.
Thursday, 09.03.09 - I wake up this morning about to attend my last day at the CBS station. I can't believe my summer internship is finally over! It went by so fast, I can't believe it has vanished right before my eyes. I have learned a tremendous amount of information that I'm sure will only advance my abilities and skills in the future world of PR for me. I am extremely lucky and thankful Akilah has given me such an opportunity. On my last day at the station, Akilah, knowing my interest in fashion, set me up with a fashion writer named Dino Ray Ramos. We had a fabulous lunch on Embarcadero, called Market Bar. I was able to convince and book him as a guest on our Bay Sunday show. Akilah and I were there during lunch to learn more about him and to reassure his position during the segment. He seems like he will be a great guest for the show, which tapes on September, 18th. I'm going to try my hardest to make it back to the bay for the taping! After all, I did book my first guest, and he's a fashion writer! He's also going to be taping the week before fashion week in NYC, so he told me he would have a ton of stories!
At the end of the day at my internship, my supervisor basically gives me the option to work remotely while I'm at school. I think interning at school for a whole year, will definitely look good on my resume. Plus, I will not only learn and experience more things, but I will be able to build better references. So yes, it is only the end of my internship physically at the CBS station. I will continue being an intern remotely, we'll see how that goes.
Later that night, I meet up with my coworkers for a goodbye dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. It was great to see Shannon, who left us last year because she was about to attend UC Riverside. She has grown up so much! The dinner really made it seem like everything was coming to an end as I ended my internship earlier that day. It was great to be with the whole staff and just reminisce on our two year journey together. I will truly miss them.
Friday, 09.04.09 - Don't remember what happened, but I do remember going to La Pinata with the girls and having our first pitcher of margaritas together now that we are all of age. yay!
Saturday, 09.05.09 - Don't remember what happened during the day, but at night all of our friends were going to celebrate my bff's 21st birthday. Long story short, everyone ends up flaking. Krystle gets upset, and I would too if everyone abandoned me on my birthday (oh wait that already happened, lol). Anna and I then just take her out to the Cheesecake Factory for drinks. It ends up becoming an eventful and wonderfully memorable dinner filled with calamari, drinks galore, and red velvet cheesecake!
Sunday, 09.06.09 - I wake up and start to get ready for my day. Anna, Krystle and I plan on helping Camilla out with some wedding dress shopping. We went to some place in Fremont, and we didn't find much. But we did find about 2 we liked overall. Check out her blog at projecthealthierbride.blogspot.com. I'm sure she'll be posting about it soon! It was such a reality check when I saw her come out in her first dress! She was such beauty, I was speechless! AHHHH! And out of our close knit of cousins, she will be the first one getting married! It will also be an honor to take part in the process of her wedding plans. I hope I can make it out to Vegas for her bachelorette party!
Later that night, I was planning on going out to dinner with the seven of my friends as a little goodbye celebration. I'm so lazy to blog right now that I'm just going to cut to the chase. They ended up throwing me a surprise "going away" party, which was more than I could ask for. I didn't know my friends planned it all a week before, and I was so overwhelemed to see everyone there. My coworkers, ex coworkers, family, and friends were all there. It was definitely a nice sight to see as I wasn't looking forward to saying goodbyes individually to everyone I knew. This party made it easier to say "see you later." =) Thanks to my good friends for throwing and putting this all together, I'm sure it wasn't easy. Ahhh I will everyone!
Today, 09.07.09 - I picked up my bed in Palo Alto this morning, while I'm hungover. I pretty much have all my things ready for my move in to SB. At this point I'm super stocked and just want to get started! I can't wait for this weekend as my family and friends will be coming along with me to help unpack and get settled in. AHHHH! 3 more days! =/
