Well, like a bat out of hell it showed up.
The real world.
It's here.
And let me tell you, all those people who told us it wouldn't be as good as our youth...
Were SO WRONG!
Screw them, the real world fucking rocks!
Within the span of one week, I had interviewed for and started an internship.
Within a week and a half of interning, I was offered a job.
Yesterday I wrote my final university exam.
Today, I officially started as Account Coordinator at ACLC Inc.
And get this, I'm working on the Hershey's Canada account.
That's right, Anne is working on advertising for chocolate!!
The cabinet next to my desk has a shelf with a post-it that reads "OK to take"
You know what's on that shelf?
Chocolate!!
It just sits there, waiting to be eaten, by anyone.
Turns out, working your ass off in school really does pay off.
I couldn't be happier. Seriously.
I'm almost afraid to think of how happy I am because it feels like I might wake up soon.
Other fun things that have happened recently:
-We "took out the clients for a drink". i.e. we drank at the agency (there's a keg in the lounge, and usually a bottle of wine), then went to the Brant House and drank with the client, then I went somewhere else to meet other people and ended up going to a vodka bar with the guy who had hired me the day before, had a 3oz glass of vodka. Somehow got home and made it to work the next day for 9am.
-Went to see "Explosions in the Sky". Apparently they're a band. I wouldn't know. According to Marc: "Anne, you were the drunkest girl in Toronto that night" I had a fucking blast! I somehow got home from that one too and also made it to work for 9am the next day.
-Been to some random house parties and what not.
-Finished college AND university. (minus one essay and an internship report, but those will be done soon) Holy crap, I never thought these last two years would ever finish, but then they did.
-Found out Warped Tour is on a Saturday. Flogging Molly and Bad Religion are playing. SO STOKED!
Well, that's my update. woo.
