L.A. BOUND!

I have had a lot of good things happen in my life. I have been very blessed on many levels. On Thursday evening I recieved a gift that I never thought I would recieve.

Right before the start of the Coldplay concert I get a call with an L.A. area code. This was the phone call from Mosaic that I was waiting for after my interview the previous week. I couldn't answer at that moment so I stepped out to call them back and in a back stairwell at the United Center in downtown Chicago I got offered the internship I never thought I had would ever get. This chance, this opportunity is something I have wanted since getting accepted to grad school. I mean, I can not truly describe how exciting this is.

I was just pumped up about getting an interview for the position and then to be offered the chance is mind-blowing. So the 10-week internship will be an adventure on so many levels. I have never been west of Denver, I have to raise $2,000 by May 21, leadership advancement and I have to live in the Pacific Time Zone - HA! (oh, let's hope for no earthquakes in L.A. this summer!!)

This is going to be a challenge but I know that it is a challenge that I will grow and expand myself in ways that I never imaged previous to this experience. I just know it. There's so much more to say but I just don't know how to say it!
