last week in review.

Last week was a crazy whirlwind and was entirely too short. It was a great spring break, but I hate to say I am back at school. The days go by so slowly here…

Last Thursday, I arrived in San Francisco to visit my beautiful sister. I had a great time exploring the city-it has such a cool, vintage, indie, diverse vibe. I loved it. We did a lot of shopping-wandering through stores I’ve never even heard of before. It was great! Too bad my carry-on bag didn’t have any more room- I could have bought a lot of cool things for our apartment next year! I could see myself living in San Francisco or on the west coast at some point during my life. Hopefully not yet, as costs of living are through the roof and I am broke as a joke. Everyone just seems so NICE there. Maybe I am just growing tired of the routine I am in.

On Friday, I anxiously awaited news from mark. about the internship. I slept in to make the day go by faster and woke up to an email :

“Dear mark Intern Candidate,

We have been amazed with the outstanding level of professionalism and enthusiasm from all of our candidates.  Thank you again for your dedication and commitment to mark.

Please note that you will hear directly from us no later than Wednesday, March 11 with regards to our 2009 Intern Selection.

Have a wonderful weekend,
The mark Team

WHAT!? I was FREAKING out. So I went on a walk to the dog park at the top of my sister’s street. All of the adorable puppies and a talk with Josh while overlooking the entire San Francisco Bay area made me smile again.

Saturday & Sunday I spent all day with Lindsay and Andrew. We went to a lot of bars and drank a lot of alcohol. I went out for Sushi dinner for the first time ever (I LOVED IT!).

Monday, I went and did all of the touristy things you do when you visit San Fran. I went to Fisherman’s Wharf, took pictures of the Golden Gate Bridge, and went to In-N-Out Burger! Then I flew home on the red-eye, got a cab to Mason, drove to Yorktown, and slept for a little bit.

Tuesday, I went to Josh’s baseball game versus Norfolk State. I LOVED seeing him, but 10 minutes is not enough time. It seemed like I just said hello and then Coach Ikenberry was pushing Josh onto the bus. It was really great to see him pitch again.When I got home, I checked my email and received the good news about the internship!

Wednesday, I went to VMI baseball at UVA. Once again, great to see Josh, gone too soon. Mrs. McP took me out for a delicious dinner and martinis, so by the time we were back in the car, I had forgotten all about it.

Thursday-Sunday is a blur of hanging out with my yc girls and my parents, sleeping, & wishing I were with Josh. I need to get busy with schoolwork again, because it seems like when I am not busy, all I think about is him. (eek! I got mushy-this is gross). I also started another blog dealing with my makeup stuff, but it is still in the works, so I am not announcing it on here yet.

I am so excited for the next couple of months.
