I am TOTALLY digging the latest from St. Vincent and Bat for Lashes right now. Annie and Natasha could win my heart any day of the week.
Remember that post I made several weeks ago about regretting my major? Now everything has fallen into place: I recently attended an advertising conference in Spokane and had a blast. It was actually a competition (our school came in third) and I was part of a team that put together a campaign against binge drinking. I wrote most of the presentation and much of the copy for our book, not to mention a lot of the copy on our ads. I have thus found my niche: copy writing. All that time spent in publishing could not garner the satisfaction I've felt in the past month -- but clearly I needed that experience to get where I am currently. I am a copy editor for the Scroll, my school's newspaper, and I'm taking an ad conception class that has proven itself to be vigorous and time consuming, but also a great portfolio-builder. And strangely, I'm having the time of my life. Of course, I'm married to an outstanding dude who's teaching me how to longboard, so that adds to my current joy. And did I mention my latest ear candy?
We recently moved into a cool new apartment with a balcony. It's in downtown Rexburg and the building was a hotel about 100 years ago; we live in what used to be the Presidential Suite -- Eleanor Roosevelt once stayed here! Now we do.
