Look at that! Haha, well its mainly because of the fact that I got so busy with life that I just plum forgot about this blog entirely. Well, in the past 6 months or so this is the recap:
Update: Part I
The Daily got busier and busier. Went to Vegas for mine, my dad’s, and my grandpa’s birthday. Even though it was a no work vacation I still ended up taking a call. Impressed my Ad Director through my neat binder with all my accounts in it. My boyfriend of many years’ grandmother passed away. More Daily stuff to do. Ended up with more accounts (yay!), even some that I managed to get through cold calling (another yay!). People hung on me a lot (not so yay). Got best seller at the Daily. Debated taking over the Ad Director job. Went for the Ad Director job. Got considered for the job. My calabash auntie ended up dying after years of battling cancer. Ended up taking up taking another vacation to Hawaii to go to the funeral (pretty sucky vacation and depressing to boot). Went back to the Daily and got the Ad Director job (silver lining). Ended the semester with very little training from my Ad Director, but enough to get by for next semester.
Update: Part II
School ended. Started Ad Director job already (ack). Found out that I couldn’t add a class that I need to graduate. Emailed my counselor, emailed my teacher, emailed my teacher again, and again, then went back to the counselor. Never heard back. Spent a summer waking up at 7:15 AM every day to go to an Art 101 class that I didn’t want to take and if I have to spend a whole ‘nother semester at the University, don’t need. Dealt with my darling boyfriend almost every day of the week. Spent more time on the Daily without email from the Daily OR going into the office. School and July ended … leading me to here.
So next week I go back to the Daily for work officially, which hopefully will give me enough money to get by foodwise. Just spent my morning (which should’ve been doing chores and helpful things for my parents) working on deciphering an invoice through Zim2papers.com and thinking what the hell is a “FSI.” Finally figured it out through the wonderful invention called the Internet (thank God) but had to call my Assistant Director AND email the former Assistant Director before that (neither of them knew anyway, sadly enough). I think I have my work cut out for me, but thankfully my Assistant Director or AsD (cuz I’m quite lazy when I type) is very sweet and she always wants to do the best job that she can.
I just hope it’s not as hectic as I think it’s going to. Tough luck there right?
