It's Been a While

So I haven't blogged in a while but its because I've been extremely busy these past few weeks. With spring break right around the bend, all of my professors feel its the perfect time to give midterms and projects that are all due before break. I on the other hand, don't think its such a great idea. My Management-200 presentation was a few weeks ago and I feel like I did an amazing job. I was the presenter in my group and I had to present infront of about 75 students. On top of that, our presentation could not be longer than 3 minutes so I really had to cram a lot of information into that short amount of time. I even dressed up in a full business suit so I definitely felt like a businessman.

The rough draft of my Globalization project is due tomorrow and our group is looking in good shape. This is definitely one of the longest projects I've ever had to do. But it definitely feels good to accomplish something so large. Accounting is going very smoothly and I have a small presentation on Thursday on a case study my group and I did. Marketing is my only class where I don't have a midterm or a project.

Aside from school, work has been very busy. I worked a Students with Students information session last Saturday which was very fun. Four Ambassadors spoke about the different aspects of Suffolk and then we took them on a tour. I also spoke briefly at the Greater Boston Guidance Counselors Meeting at the Law School which was nice because I got a free dinner. This Thursday I am traveling to Dorchester with two other ambassadors to speak to 7th graders about college. I'm really excited to go because I feel I can truely inspire younger kids to think about college at an early age and help them see what is possible in their future.

I applied to be a Teaching Assistant for Suffolk University 101 next Fall. I'll hear back on Friday whether or not I got the job so hopefully the news is good. I'm also looking at possible internships for the summer. There's a chance I may get an internship in San Francisco in which would be AMAZING. My cousin said I could live with him and his wife while I had my internship and public transportation in the Bay Area is great! The company is Hemming Morse and its a medium sized accounting firm which mainly specializes in forensic accounting, which is what I want to be when I graduate. Not many people know what a forensic accountant does, but its kind of like a CSI only in the accounting field. It's more about white collar crimes than criminal crimes, although there are definitely criminal aspects to it.

That catches me up a little bit for now. I'll make sure to remember to keep blogging for all you followers!
