Wow, It's Been a While!

So I guess life got really busy after April, which it did so much happened to me since then. School finished off very well. I got a 3.6 GPA to finish off my freshmen year of college, it was exciting, was hoping to do better than that but it's all good. I went home instead of staying for the summer, and it's a good thing I did. My life has changed dramatically since I last wrote here. I went home, and I got this awesome job with Vector...holy shit dude, talk about the opportunity of life time. The great part is, my manager that I was a complete bitch when she interviewed me, and now she is probably one of the most influential people of my life. I worked my butt of this summer, but I know I could have worked a little bit harder, I mean I did well for not putting everything I had into it. I spent my entire summer really just working so I could do Semester at Sea in the Spring but yea, I'm waiting till the fall now. So, I went to Minnesota during the summer it was my only real vacation roadtripping through MN with my buddies from school. I lost some respect from a lot of my friends because I was always working or I was "obsessed" with my job, but they don't get it and I don't expect them to. This summer was the experience of a lifetime and it's still going, lots of shit went down, and Ro is probably one of the strongest people I know to put up with that much shit. Not gonna lie, the people I was introduced to towards the end of the summer are pretty legit and I am glad I get to see them every once in a while. I learned a lot about myself this summer, I learned that when people say I am a hard worker, I really am. I don't give up easily, cuz if I did, I wouldn't be doing it still, nor would I be an AM. I'm learning how to deal with change, again cuz I had to switch offices and it's hella different, but I'm learning so much more than just Political Science and Criminal Justice from school, I'm learning Vector and that shit is awesome. The start out here was pretty rough to begin with, my friends gave me a hard time about work, the transition back to school was weird, I felt really outta place. I am studying abroad next semester in DC hopefully with a pretty legit internship and it's probably the greatest time to get to go if you ask me! I'm really confused on my potential with Vector and I was letting it hold me back from going but fact of the matter is, I'm probably not branching this summer so it doesn't matter. I'll only be gone for 12 weeks and when I get back I can still be an AM and have a kick ass summer, which is the plan. Well, it's late and I gotta get some sleep I got a lab date with my lab partner tomorrow...OMG....the boy is amazing. :) So excited
