Alaska

My parents were originally wanting us to visit Alaska for 2-3 weeks right after my graduation, but my mom just got a new job and can't take that much time off yet. So, if I can get a summer internship, then we can probably go to Alaska when that's over, and then I can hopefully set up a job to start when I get back from that. So there are still some travel opportunities on the horizon, even though Australia is out. Maybe I'll make this a work/travel blog instead of just a travel blog.

Jobs?

So Australia is officially out. It's tough to get good, accurate international background checks done, so there was just too much risk involved and my parents weren't happy about it. But, I do have one interview tomorrow and am setting up another for next week, both for full-time paid internships. I was kind of thinking I needed to get a paid internship first, since I don't have much work experience in my degree. I'd prefer the one that I'm in the process of setting up an interview for next week, but we'll see how it goes. I'm just happy to have some prospects for after graduation besides Kohl's!
