Where is the sunshine?

So school has ended and I received all B's in my classes! Works for me. It was a tough semester. Now I just have to get my GPA up to a 3.0... uh.

Rachel is home from Denmark and reuniting with her was the best! We met up in Boston after I got out of my internship and embraced each other in the middle of Fanuiel Hall. I'm so happy she's home. We went to UNH last weekend (don't know anyone there) but had such a great time at grad parties. We caught up and she gave me a shirt with LOVE in Danish printed on the front. She also put pins from all the countries she went to on the bottom of the shirt, I loved it :). Kendra and Catherine are also home from Italy and Denmark! I haven't seen them yet and would like to before Kendra starts her internship in London.

Oh yes, the internship I'm doing... I am working as a press intern for Senate President Therese Murray at the State House in Boston. I love working there. Not only am I falling in love with the city but I am also enjoying the work I have been doing for the communications staff. I started last Monday and so far I have written a press release, speaking points, and a quote for the Senate President. I met her on Monday! It was great, she was very nice. I am working with six other interns from Massachusetts who are in college as well. We all have to wear business formal attire in the office. I'm loving all the new dresses and heels I've been wearing, which is a plus ;)

I have been a hot mess lately. My car brakes needed to be replaced, which was a pain. I also just started unpacking from school because my parents are going to kill me if I don't clean all of my bags and clothes out of the "living room" or the room with furniture we don't sit on. I am also on a serious search for a job and haven't had much luck but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a call back within the next week or so. I'm trying to get a job bartending or waitressing and it has been difficult because a lot of places don't want to just hire someone for the summer. It's frustrating.
Last night I went to the Venus, a bar near my house, with some friends to watch the Bruins vs. Tampa Bay. The Bruins won and it was a great game. I find myself only getting into sports when it becomes a social activity. But that's ok. The TV at our table was 5 seconds faster than the bar TVs so when the Bruins scored we would cheer and the bar would be silent until 5 seconds later. It was humorous.

I should get back to cleaning. Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny. THANK GOD. The rain is so depressing... and bad for my hair.
