I decided I’m going to put updates on my internship here: kristafirkins.wordpress.com One of my bazillion blogs. Gah.

May 18th

today is my first day of my internship!

And I promised myself I would blog about it before and after. I came to the realization that I know nothing about internship etiquette. What do I wear? Can I wear jeans? Should I wear heels? Can I come in with a cup of coffee? Basically I don’t know how much to treat this like a real job. I know a lot of these questions depend on the internship but they’re still things I wish I...

BLOG STRESS

i have too many blogs that i don’t update frequently enough. this semester, i had to keep up a blog on wordpress for a journalism class. this just added to my confusion of what i should put on that blog, this blog, my somethingpretty blog, and my blog that is just my portfolio. BUT I DON’T KNOW WHICH ONES TO GET RID OF. they all serve a different purpose. but, i am going to try...

anything that has to do with The Beatles means an automatic reblog from me! selnickstunes: 85 songs today, and I had to stop myself because I would have stayed up all night listening to The Beatles. It’s all just so damn good. Some of it is equally f*#&ed up as good, but it’s good none the less. Albums Covered: Abbey Road, The White Album (both discs), Let It Be, Love This was…

selnickstunes: Alright, this might be because winter break is killing me with boredom, but this is what I’ve decided to do. People put thousands of songs on their ipods, but listen to maybe twenty at a time. My goal is to listen to my ipod, top to bottom, every song, not skipping one. Now there is 12 days and…

packing.

i am great at packing. but not because i am good at figuring out what i’m going to wear and what i’m not going to wear over any given trip, but because i’m good at fitting lots of clothes and unnecessary things in very small spaces. pictures to follow later. after at least another hour of playing tetris with my suitcase.

things i love #4 handwritten things i prefer writing most things by hand rather than typing them. there are very few exceptions. things i DON’T like writing by hand include essays and research papers. duh. but i love writing my class notes and any and all lists on plain old paper. it makes me feel more accomplished. i also prefer handwritten letters over emails.
