Life Update

It had just hit the middle of the semester, and the next break we have is basically winter break. I personally am not counting Thanksgiving break because it's Wednesday and Thursday, but on Friday, I have two exams, so over Thanksgiving, I will be studying for the 2 exams and then finals. Personally, I would rather study over thanksgiving break in Atlanta than go home because then I would not be distracted. Also, I don't need to worry about accidentally missing my flight or getting canceled since my exams are in-person.

I am looking forward to winter break because I can't wait to see and sniggle with Stevie, even though she does not really like it back. Hey, maybe she will this time around since she is starting to like my bedroom again. Over winter break, I would love to work on Sheabella Design because I want to keep it up. Even though I am at Uni and do not have a lot of time for it, it's still a passion of mine.

That reminds me I think I have picked my minor track. I want to get a certificate in marketing. I would get the business minor at GT, but that will add an extra year because the business school does minors differently. I also am very interested in the classes that the marketing certificate offers. I want to take classes in digital media, digital advertising, and market pricing strategy and analytics. If I was not a BME major, I think I would be doing marketing. Marketing is very fascinating for me. I love learning the psychology behind all of these decisions that brands make and how they are using psychology to make us want to spend more or relate to their brand. If you want to learn more about the GT marketing minor, I will link it here.

This weekend, I watched a Lip Sync show that the Greek life put on. I did not watch the GT one because I didn't even know this was a thing, but my roommate was from Kennesaw State University before she transferred to GT, so we watched her friends perform. We watched it virtually, and I had a good time. All of my roommates and another friend huddled around our one-seater couch, cheered on, and pretended to judge the teams’ performances. Above is a snippet of one of the dances.

Another thing that I am currently doing is trying to find a full-time internship over fall 2022. I have been looking at Internships abroad and in the US. I did not realize how hard it is to find an internship in the engineering field. At least for me, every interview I have asked so far has told me that they are only looking at people who have internship experience before, so I am searching for a company that does not have that requirement. I am proud of everything that I have done, and I would not have changed anything I have done so far in life because I have learned from every experience I have had, and I believe that allows me to work well with different groups. So, I can not wait to find a company that believes in me and my experiences.

I have to run to class, but the last update is that I have figured out my Halloween costume. Typically college girls dress up sexy, but I wanted to put a twist on that norm. I thought it would be funny because my costume still sticks to the norm but in a different perspective. In order to pull it off, I had to convince another one of my roommates to do it with me, which took a little while, but I can not wait till Halloween comes! I will leave you off with that, and if you want, you can guess what it is, but I will be writing a follow-up about it.

**Update: There is not going to be a blog about Halloween. Unfortunately, the costume fell through, but I was suppose to be a boob where I was the left boob and my roommate was the right boob. I have merged a photo of me to show you what my costume was suppose to look like, so you can get the idea I was going for. I found it online so it was not my creation, but I did DIY the costume.
