Are you RELEVANT?

Hey everyone!

So, I have precisely 13 days left in my semester which means that life around here has been complete chaos as I'm doing my best to keep up with the last few projects. I'm finished, including my last final, on May 1st which is pretty crazy because I typically have the last final on the last day of the exam period. Oh man I'm ready for this semester to be OVER!

I have some good news to announce so, drum roll please....

I was accepted as a design intern for Relevant Magazine starting at the end of May!

I have met with 3 of my professors and each were eagerly excited about the opportunity. There will be 2 other interns and one will begin their internship on May 19th which is hopefully the same start date as me. In all there will be nine of us - three in design, three in marketing, and three in editorial. Evidently, there is a guy from Auburn who is an editorial intern so I'm hoping to catch up with him in the next couple of weeks.

There is only one more thing I need. Oh you thought that getting the internship would be the end of it, but not quite. I'm still trying to find a place to live. We do have one option, but if you know of anyone in Orlando that has an extra room or needs a summer sub-leaser PLEASE let me know! I'm clean, friendly, responsible, great with children and pet friendly so - tell your friends, family, or anyone that this awesome AU girl needs a roof over her head for the summer!

So yay! The internship search is over! Finally.

In other news, I went to Passion last weekend and man...the word "awesome" just isn't enough to describe how Passion was for me. For those of you who aren't familiar, Passion is a Christian conference for college students. This year we met in Atlanta and over 9,500 people came to worship and learn about God. The 2 speakers were Louie Gigglio and Francis Chan while David Crowder, Chris Tomlin, and Charlie Hall performed and lead worship.

I'm headed to Mobile on Saturday for an area wide meeting of youth groups in Mobile to see our drama group Speak perform. We are having a full day of hanging out with the teens, eating together, playing games, performing our skits, and teaching classes. It should be a good learning experience for Speak and hopefully God will use our time and silliness to reach out to the youth groups that attend. Also if you're free on Tuesday night at 7pm, and are aching to see Speak perform, come to devo at the ACSC on College Street! We're performing skits based on the themes of Acts which should be entertaining so I hope you can make it there!

Well that's about it for now. I better get back to my classes! As always, thanks for stopping by.
