I'm FINALLY Getting Used To This!

It’s that time again kids. Long gone are the days of twinkling lights and bells and “HELLO!” to massive piles of books and papers. Joyous, right?
I’d like to think so at least.
Spring Semester at Bonaventure is in full blast two-and-a-half weeks in and heading straight towards May. For me Winter Break was a relief, a new beginning, and a complete chaotic mess all at the same time. Bonas brings me back to a somewhat steady schedule filled with fast moving days and many sleepless nights.
As you may have read in some of my previous blogs, in October I started my journey towards obtaining my Masters in Integrated Marketing Communications. With a great success in my first two classes, I am now onto Financial Tools for the IMC Campaign.
It may sound like a dry subject, but being the math geek I am, I love it. Who knew I would love putting a cash flow projection sheet together?
Apart from my masters classes I am taking a few undergrad as well. My senior forum class is discussing and learning about the reconciliation in Ireland. To experience it firsthand we will be traveling to Ireland on February 25. My American Advertising Federation (AAF) class is putting together a fully integrated campaign for JCPenney. My position in the agency is the art director. So far I am enjoying it. In May we will be presenting our campaign at the World Series of Advertising in New York City. My last class is sociology. It was a required Clare course, so not something I would have picked out of personal interest (even though it will probably be good for me).
Although I have tons of work put on my agenda for this semester, I am looking forward to the ways it will benefit me. Every semester I somehow end up coming out alive with more excitement about what lies ahead!
