So after about ten minutes of trying out how to actually write a post, here I am. My summer has been slightly uneventful so far, yet not as terribly boring as I thought it would be.
I am working right now as a temp at the same medical device company I have worked at the past three summers as an intern. I am on day 28 of no health insurance (woo!) and still looking for a full time job. Jon has been amazing at offering me assistance trying to find a job with the FDA and other government agencies. Yesterday I got a call for an interview for Aflac - as much as I love the duck, I declined because I want to stay in pharmaceutics. I've been applying to research positions, sales positions, you name it, at Pharma companies and hospitals up and down the east coast.
Some highlights of my summer include spending an afternoon with Linebaugh in Philly while he was here for training, washing and waxing my "almost mine" beautiful impala on the weekends when I'm bored (I get the car as soon as I get a job!), spending multiple weekends in New York visiting family, receiving inappropriate gchat messages daily from RJ because he knows I'm at work, playing coed softball a couple nights a week and basically hanging out catching up on some reading for pleasure. I was already fed-up with living at home about the second week I was here, although there are a few perks to being home - I'm saving money on rent and my dad's awesome coffee ready for me in the morning. Living at home isn't a bowl full of happiness. I really miss everyone but I don't think it will really hit me until its time to go back but I'm not.
Jon and I are trying to go to the OSU vs PSU game at State College this fall. My little sister (still not street legal James) will be a freshman at Penn State starting August 22nd and my best friend is finishing up her last semester so there will definitely be a place to stay. I think all of you should come even if we just tailgate the whole time (tailgate? whats that?).
Miss you all!
BJ
