Really.

-----
Dear Life,

I feel like I've learned a lot in the past twelve months. My how time flies and how life changes so quickly. And yet, out of all of it, the thing I've learned the most is that every time something knocks me down, there always ALWAYS something even better around the corner. Thank you for being so kind to me by letting me have my ups along with my downs. I feel like I've learned more than I could have ever imagined, and grown in ways I didn't even know were possible this year. And besides that, I'm finally, truly happy again. I couldn't have asked for a better way to bring in a new year. And yes, I'm excited to see what the next twelve months bring along. Quite excited, actually.

Love Always,


B

PS I have an INTERVIEW with L'Oreal tomorrow!!! And I'm SO EXCITED about it!!! A tad nervous, but not really. Ahhh it's only my DREAM brand to work for! I can't believe it's actually happening, it's really quite a blessing that I am so thankful for.

PPS I also found out this last week that I'm a national finalist for AAF's Most Promising Minority Advertising Student of the Year. haha, yes I know, I laughed about the 'minority' part too. BUT. It's an AMAZING opportunity that I have my incredible professors to thank for. I'll be meeting important advertising professionals, getting published, and having my resume sent to top companies on AAF's behalf. Oh. And the best part. Getting an expenses-paid trip back out to the wonderful NYC at the beginning of February. I'm so incredibly excited about this amazing opportunity!

  2. Ba ha. I laughed out loud about the minority thing. Not because I'm racist or whatever; rather, it brought back the memory of walking through the WILK and the Asian club invited you to join them. Or when people ask if you're Mexican. Ha ha ha.

    On a more serious note, I am proud of you for how you have dealt with the past year. You have grown so much! I admire you, as always.
