I cannot believe I am almost a senior at college. High school seemed like the longest four years of my life, and College has felt like the three shortest years. The days may drag sometimes, but the weeks are flying by.
I have to say, junior year of High School is definitely the toughest, and I would have to say it’s the hardest in college as well. This year has been all required classes for my major, and not much time take any fun classes that you take for the sake of liberal arts credits. I also was told that it is really important to get as many internships as you can in college, because you can get a job out of them once you graduate. So, taking my parents, my brothers, and my professors advice, I got one this semester. I have been working as an intern in the Marketing and Publications Department on campus, and I have been learning so much.
I always thought an internship would be getting coffee and answering phones, because that’s how I always saw them. But I have actually learned more than I could have imagined, and I have been creating and helping to make fliers, posters, and mailers for different big events and activities that will be taking place around Manhattanville. I will be living on campus this summer so that I can continue the internship and continue learning about graphic design.
As senior year is coming closer and closer, I think of how I still don’t know what I want to do when I graduate, but how my internship is helping to guide me in the right direction. So, as I said in my first blog, I don’t know where I’m going, but I hope to have a better idea after the summer and next semester.
