"I don't want to have a job where I wake up every Monday and wish it were already Friday. Why would I want to wish that my life were a week shorter?"- Stephanie Tepperberg
Now that the economy sucks, I figure that since it's harder to get that highly competitive, high-paying job, the opportunity cost of me doing something that I love is now lower. (This line of reasoning brought to you by my minor in economics aka The Bain of My Academic Career.)
I'm so excited for my fashion marketing internship next semester (with Eva Danielle), especially because it feels like the pieces are all starting to kind of fit together. (Thomas Edison's quote, "I didn't fail; I found 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb," has definitely been ringing in my head the last few weeks.)
All I need to do now is make it through the next two weeks (aka Hell) and then it's winter break, Christmas, New Year's in NYC, Marco Island's Florida sunshine, and a second semester senior schedule consisting entirely of dance, film, fashion, and music.
It's all so close and yet so, so far.
