Makin' moves

Things are speeding up around here. As I desperately search for a way to make some money, I also have school work to focus on. My classes are going well and I'm enjoying this semester thus far. I miss my friends who are abroad so I am keeping up with their new foreign lifestyles over Facebook and their blogs.
During practicum today (a class that helps students prepare their resumes and prepare for the real world through an internship opportunity), we discussed what we think we would be doing in five years. I'm terrified. As the only junior in the class, I know I have an extra year to think about what I want to do after college but right now I am so lost. Do I want to live in a city? Do I want to move west? I have been thinking about going to graduate school to get my masters for a while now and it will give me the opportunity to do something new. Personally, I would like to work at the college I go to for my masters so that I can attend for free. If I have the opportunity to go west after college, I should take it. I guess I'm just nervous about moving too far away from home. Although, Brooklyn is also a cool place or maybe even as close as Boston. I fell in love with the North End when I stayed at my friend's apartment there. My mind changes everyday but I realized that I have never thought about changing my major which surprises me.
I am going to start my internship at Vermont Family Network within the next week or so. Interning at a non-profit will be a great experience especially because I will be able to incorporate my Peace and Justice Minor.

Anyway, let's get off the topic of all this school business. This weekend, I am attending a Student Global AIDS Conference at Harvard. Ok maybe this isn't exactly OFF the topic of school business but I am looking forward to it. I will be going with some of the people I traveled to DC with last semester and it will be great to be back in the Boston area for the weekend. The group will be staying at my friend Alexsis's house in Medford and I'm excited to meet her fam! The following Monday I am going to see Robyn at Higher Ground with my friend, Mia. So pumped about that because now that I am 21 I can drink at the venue. I need to find an outfit ASAP. Platos closet perhaps?

Well, I'm off to watch Seinfeld with the roomies.

Adios.
