I am really glad that my running a blog isn't my job or hobby since I would definitely either get fired or I wouldn't have any followers on my blog.
So I'm happy (kind of) that you're all required to read my blog haha
The past few weeks have been extremely busy for me: still training for police jobs (I applied to Mesa Police Department, and I have my physical this Saturday. This is for a full-time real job!)
I was offered a really exciting position of campaign manager two weekends ago because of my connections to Arizona Students' Asscociation!!! (ASA is my original internship that I completed during my freshman/sophomore years btw.)
Basically I would be a campaign manager and focus on LGBT rights in Arizona! I was at the Rainbows Festival the 19th and the 20th (two weekends ago) volunteering for HRC (hrc.org) and I was approached by this guy who would want me to work for his campaign! I also met a model that weekend (who I will be going out with soon :) but that's not relevant, I just feel like it was an amazing weekend with all that happened!)
I love how the whole point of having an internship with a certain organization is to potentially set you up with future jobs, and my internship with ASA proved to be just that. It's just so exciting to think about how it all worked out for me. I mean, what if the police dream doesn't work out? I can become a person who is on a whole nother level of justice!!! What if I become a lawyer eventually and take on cases of discrimination in the LGBTQA community?! I mean anything can happen!
I guess having been in an internship already and having that experience where you have a potential job offer for something related to that internship...it makes it all worth it. That's my advice for everyone: take your internships seriously, learn as much as you can from them, build awesome relationships with the people you intern with because you never know who you'll run into and get offered an amazing opportunity and maybe even your dream career!!
Thanks for reading! I will have more post coming now since I have my schedule all figured out now!
