Reflections

So I just went NLIC for two more graphic design internships. Yellow Shoes Art Director and Distribution Marketing Graphic Design. I'm kind of upset at these, although at least I know they looked at my samples before saying no thanks.

I'm at this weird point where my career could go off into to separate paths. I've wanted to work for Yellow Shoes doing graphic design for quite some time, but I also feel that to get a career in graphic design I would really need to go to portfolio school.  A graphic design internship would really set me on the path to doing that.

On the other hand I really love guest service! And it is also a dream of mine to do Guest Relations and get into lodging management at one of the resorts. An internship in GR might set me up on the path to do that.

And then there is the unknown...I'm still in the running for several event planning internships, something else I know I would be good at and enjoy.

Perhaps I should have majored in something that got you a job with a specific title. Like Accounting or Education. I feel like there are so many different ways this could turn out!!
