I made it, 2 semesters left! I have to admit this last semester was tough; mostly because I commuted every day. I'm planning on ending that next semester. Luckily, I didn't end up doing too much damage to my GPA, just a little. Besides, what’s life without a little self imposed challenge?
Luckily, I don’t have to move for the summer. I ended up getting internship offers in Las Vegas and in Boston. I’ll be staying in Boston! I’ll be working at an asset management firm – think the guys who put together mutual funds. I’m really excited, as it will make me more marketable, or turn into a career.
I’ve been keeping busy socially, maybe too busy. The jury is still out on that one. My parents came this month which was fun, since they brought with them the ability to buy good food. Also, we went to the Blue Man Group, a life changing experience! As a note, I’m not really a theater fan, but this was amazing. I’ll probably even go back. Maybe become a Blue Man Group understudy…
Currently I’m in the process of trying to find an apartment a little closer to Brandeis. Some people can commute; I’m learning I have some limitations…so much wasted time! Driving and studying doesn’t work, and yes, I’ve tried.
Being in Boston for the summer should be a lot of fun. One of the activities I really want to try out is deep sea fishing. I’m also looking at taking some Turkish classes over the summer. I guess I’ll see how motivated I am, or busy I end up being.
I promise to become a better blogger. Let’s be honest, picture will probably never happen, until I get married. However, I’ll try to remedy the frequency of posts a little bit. One part of this blogging thing that I don’t quite understand is who is my audience? I don’t really know who I’m writing for, besides my family. I guess blogging helps keep my writing powers sharp. I suppose it’s worth it just for that.

Consider me a part of your audience. It's just nice to get an update on your thoughts and your life. That's exciting about the internship in Boston. I know you will do great! Good luck finding an apartment closer to school. Ya, it's crazy to think how far people commute. Josh was telling me about these two famous LDS guys he read about who lived in the suburbs of NY and drove to NYC everyday 2 hrs one way. That's insane! and think how Dad commuted to West Jordan for so long. Sorry for such the long comment. Take Care! LOVE YA LOTS :)
Hi, I'm a stalker-ish fellow that has a thing for red-headed graduate students with dating drama. I check your blog 24 hours a day on the 14th minute of every hour. I am your audience.

Family should be your audience! Need I say more? I also like it to polish my writing skilzzz with blogging. Cool that you're going to take some Turkish classes. What the heck does Turkish even sound like?! I guess you'll have to speak it to me sometime.

We both read every word on your blog. It is the best way to keep in touch. I still like the phone. Hope Turkish is easier than Chinese.
