My Last First Day of School

Time really does fly.  I can't believe that I'm a senior in college already.  What am I going to do with my life?  First thing is first, I need to find myself an internship.  Actually before that, I need to get myself acquainted with my classwork.

Monday was my last first day of classes.  I'm about 90% positive that I won't try for any sort of masters or doctorate, I just want to get out there and work in a field that I love.  I start off every day with a 9:30 class in Advertising with the same professor.  Monday is account management.  I mostly excited for the fact that we are going to take a whole bunch of field trips to agencies and I will hopefully make some big time connections for later.

After a wonderful meal from our cook, Rob, I went to my next class which is sure to be one of my favorites, Broadcast Sports Production.  As a person who loves sports, shooting and editing, I can tell you that this class is culmination of all my loves.  Today we pitch an idea of a long form sports production.  I know what I will pitch but we will see how it stacks up against the other ideas.

Tuesday starts out with a Advertising research.  The teacher had us go around, introduce ourselves and say whether or not we would take a research class if it wasn't required.  I'm pretty sure I was the only person who was honest and said "No, I wouldn't take a research class if I had the choice."  It made me feel like a jackass but it's the truth.  Who really enjoys doing research anyway?

From ad research I went to marketing: consumer behaviors.  It seems like a decent enough class.  For those introductions, everyone stated who they were and a brand they were loyal too.  Me, I'm loyal to Target and Old Dutch Pickle Chips.  If you haven't tried them, you must!  They are simply delicious.  No one makes pickles chips like Old Dutch.

I ended the day with  my short stories class.  That I think I am going to love.  I will post some of my stories here if I deem them worthy.  I found some other fellow Jane Austen lovers and I'm thinking about starting a club devoted to her works.  NERD ALERT!  We will see how it goes.

So far I am really enjoying this years class schedule.  I hope drama doesn't interfere.  It always seems to rear its ugly head at the most inopportune moments.  Anyway, that's my update for now.  I'll update again soon.

Pip Pip Cheerio!
