Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!

Hello! I hope everyone is having a nice Superbowl Sunday. I have a little cold so I think I am just staying in. Plus, I am working on this great crochet blanket and I want to get it done before it is too hot too use. I am also in the middle of working on my thesis. It is going well but slowly - I still feel like I need more sources.
I am looking for postgraduate work. I'm exploring the paid internship route. Any leads will be greatly appreciated.

where do we go from here?

One of my professors is leaving to teach at another school. This is bittersweet. We will all miss him but it sounds like a great place for him to be. Bonne Chance!

I am wondering what to do next. Right now it seems like I want to do many things at once. I know this is impossible but their is a lot I want to achieve. I want to write more. I want to help others learn about computers and technology. I am strongly considering getting my PhD in Educational Technology because I think my creativity could be put to good use within teaching and education. More on that later!

I want to make more artwork. I would really like to go back to Penland. Penland was a great experience to have and gave me a lot of insight on what other artistic people's lives are like. I hope I can go back after I graduate. I would like to learn something within the field of textiles.

 I want to continue blogging. I really love blogging and am glad a lot more people have been visiting my site and commenting. I would love to travel more and write about that.

Hi.

Well my email getting hacked resulted in some funny/strange emails from random people in my address book so I thought I would take some time to let everyone know what's going on in my life. I am taking summer classes. It is far too hot and I think my brain is melting. Gainesville is an oven. My garden is not doing so well because of this. It is so hot I cannot think. Seriously, it's taken me like an hour to type this.

I am very excited about my internship. I am interning with Lady Vanderbilt, a wonderful jewelry/accessories brand. It has been a lot of fun so far. I am interested in branding, web design, and social media marketing so this is perfect for me. Plus it gives me an excuse to find and look at awesome fashion blogs.

I am excited to see my good friend Jen soon. We plan on going to The Ravenous Pig and eating something decadent. I love Jen because she is the first person to show me that Orlando actually has cool non-touristy places to be. Actually, that's only one of the reasons I love Jen. And I get a break between summer classes and I am so excited to go back to South Florida. Another good friend Amy will be down visiting her family so I am really excited to see her. It's been way too long. As a grad student, I have very small classes and much less time to socialize so it is alot harder to meet new friends. Getting older I have really come to appreciate the friends I have.

I miss you Katy! And Lindsey! And Erica! And Jill!
