So my 3rd year of college is over! And I just had an interview for an Event and Programs Assistant position with the UCI Alumni Association.... and I'm crossing my fingers that I get it. It would be such great experience in the area of event management and planning.....and lots of fun! I feel like the interview went really well....so we shall see! Whatever happens, happens.... right?
This year went by so fast it's ridiculous. But it's definitely been the best year for me at UCI thus far. I'm hoping next year will be even better, if that's even possible. Anyways, I should be packing up stuff right now, but there's just way too much of it and it scares me just thinking about moving it all into my parent's car tomorrow.
This weekend is going to be CRAZY. Tomorrow my parents are taking most of my stuff home, then at night I'm going to David's band performance in Costa Mesa, on Saturday I'm supposed to check out of my room, Saturday night I'm going to Breesa's Grad party (so I have to decide if I'm going home in the morning and coming BACK to Irvine at night), and then Sunday (early) I'm going to meet up with Michael and we're going to go visit his sister Christine in Valley Center! She's going to have a baby girl and she's due in August.... I can't wait to meet her! I also love visiting Valley Center. Valley Center is in San Diego County and it's SO SO different from Yorba Linda. I feel like in a completely different state when I'm there....it feels very country to me (i hope that doesn't offend anyone.....) . i think that's why I love it so much! I absolutely love the feeling of the slower lifestyle....call me crazy ;)
This summer is going to be good. I can feel it :) I don't really have many set plans yet besides Miami in a few weeks with the fam and summer school, but have a feeling I'm going to keep myself pretty busy. I'm hoping to volunteer/intern at the CHOC Foundation a few hours a week, so hopefully that happens. Patrice, the Director of Special Events/Corporate Relations of the CHOC Foundation, has been such a big help in trying to find me work with her. I'm so happy that I met her though my management class this past Fall Quarter - definitely best class ever. I learned so much about what I want to do with my life in that one class. Doctor Terry Schmidt (the teacher) should really be recognized for making the class one of the most interesting classes at UCI. I'm happy I was the 1 student out of a total of 22 that could take the class this year!
Hmmm....so what are my plans for the next 2 months?
- Clean my room
- Get rid of all the things I don't use anymore (it's way too much stuff)
