I'm still here!

Hello hello everyone.

My apologies for my very tardy update, but I'm a working woman! I've been working for exactly a month now and I. love. it. Draftfcb is exactly as amazing as I thought it would be. Everyone I've met is brilliant, hard-working, and knows how to have a good time (key!). It's been really great. My cube is slightly decorated, I have plenty of colorful pens and Sharpies, and most of all, I think I'm doing a good job haha. It took a few weeks for me to get the hang of things, but I think I finally know what the expectations are and how to deliver them. I've been doing a ton of work on both SC Johnson and Kraft. Both really fun, interesting clients. I love the work I've been doing, too.

Bottom line. I think I got very very lucky.

So hopefully, from here on out, my blog will be a little more advertising-oriented. I hope I can provide some interesting insights and make you think. I promise I will try to write weekly (at minimum!).

Besides the job front, things are a little slower. My commute to and from work is about a total of four hours. Two in the morning, two in the evening. So I leave before 7am and get home around 8pm. I'm trying really hard to get my work done as efficiently as possible so that I get home at a decent time, but it's definitely a challenge. I'm not quite ready to move yet, though. Saving money has been great and I'm looking forward to a few more months of accumulation before I become flat broke. I have, however, been looking at some great apartments, with a lot of potential! The only issue is that my man will be moving to NYC come July, so I'm trying to keep my options open. I'm not sure if I want to become slave to a landlord just yet. So we'll see. The commute is getting old, though, haha. Props to my dad for doing it for three years!

But yes, I vow to write more often, keep you updated, and fill you in on life as a first-time jobber. :) Hope everyone's search is going well!
