well. i did it guys. i left my internship. wow. i didn't think i would have the courage or faith to do it. i've felt for a long time like it was getting in the way of a lot of things. but i was too scared to say no. i felt like it would be a sign of weakness. i wasn't planning on leaving today, but it just happened while talking to my boss about being paid for projects i'd be working on. and though it's a great opportunity and i was going to get paid, my whole heart wasn't into it. and i don't know why.
i've realized that doing an internship wasn't the best thing for me. i felt like i needed to have one so i could be ahead of the game and be esteemed by other advertising students and my professors. and even though internships and advertising jobs work for some people, it wasn't the best thing for me.
it's another one of those "it just didn't feel right" situations. it kinda sucks. because i don't know what awaits me.
it's funny that Seussical is practically over and i always think "could i have done the show?" maybe. maybe not. either way, i didn't feel right about it, so i didn't do it.
i've been contacted by a group of bloggers - i'll make each of them a bag and they will feature my bag of their blog. there will be about 6-10 bloggers with a cumulative 20,000+ followers. great exposure! and i want to set up a booth at the provo farmer's market. and i want to sell my bags in boutiques!
i have so much time now! let's hope that i am wise with my time :)
That sounds like a tough decision!
