I'm back ...

I know it's been awhile, and I don't really have a good excuse as to why I haven't written - but I feel like now would be a good time to write about some feelings I've been having lately.

First off, I started a new blog for my marketing ideas and thoughts - demsdailys.blogspot.com

Secondly, I've been waking up in the morning just plain scared about where the future is going to take me. I graduate in less than 2 months, and the thought of being out in the real world scares me a lot. The fear is real, and trying to balance homework, softball, friends, and life in general has been rough. I want to see all my friends all the time, because I know that time is limited. I also want to eliminate homework and presentations from my life just so that I can hang with my friends, but then I feel like once I graduate, I'll be wishing I had homework again!

I definitely have to be more proactive about jobs and things for when I graduate. It has been helpful to talk to different people about their experiences, and to know that I'm not alone in my job search, and overall panic. It's always hard when you move on from one major part of your life to the next. I even have to start paying off my loans in December! Oh goodness.

Finally, I have to say that I am definitely overall enjoying my last semester on the hilltop, and softball has been bringing me a lot of joy. We unfortunately had to put my puppy down last week (<3 Domino) and that was really tough on me, but my girls on the team really helped me out that weekend and we pulled out a couple of key W's against UCONN.

I look forward to updating this more often in the following years. I think it's important to remember the times that got you where you are today. I hope everyone has a great Easter break with your families!

4 more days 'till I can have soda and ice cream again :)
