im out of town for now
so i finally made it... im living in los angeles. at least for the next four months. these past few days have been a whirl wind of every emotion. this will probably be long...
so thursday i left nashville, and that meant leaving patrick. it was one of the hardest things i have ever had to do, but i knew i had to and he has said so many things that have made this transition so much easier than it could have been. i am such a lucky girl.
i got home around ten thursday night, and managed to pack my last bag. i finally fell asleep around 4, and got up at 5:30am to go to the airport. we arrived in california around noon, and it was not sunny at all. we all got moved in, and i went out for a birthday dinner. it was quite delicious. when i got back, my roommates told me that our apartments were having a voluntary evacuation... something about possible mud slides. welcome to california! we decided to stay in our apartment, and of course the whole night i heard rumbling and was convinced the whole mountain was coming down on us. we survived our first night, and the next day was rainy. i spent it with my mom and dad. we had a great time just driving around the city and yelling at the gps lady.
sunday came with some more rain, but i made it to target to get the few things that i didnt pack or ship. i think im one of the few people that like hanging out with my parents. i got pretty lucky with those two. they are nuts, and i love them very much.
today i started my internship! i got to cross my first picket line... talk about awkward. i got there, and my internship supervisor had not left my tag to drive on with. so, of course i panicked! everything was fine though. the day went pretty smoothly, and i think this internship is going to be a lot of fun. i also started class tonight, and i think this is going to open so many doors for me. i truly believe that all of my professors out here want to do anything they can to help us meet the people we want to meet. it feels like music business boot camp, but in a really great awesome way. my tentative schedule for the semester looks like this: intern monday, wednesday, thursday 10-4 and class monday - thurs 6:30-9:30. i did it again... no classes/interning on fridays!
i had to say goodbye to my parents tonight, and its still hard for me to not cry as i type it. its not like i see them that much when im in nashville, but this just seems so much bigger. i guess it is.
this whole experience has been hard, exciting, scary, sad, fun, and amazing; and it has just begun! thats the story so far...
