They say that when you are young you are experiencing the best period of your life.
I'm only 22 but I agree. I have so many crazy stories about random nights out and ones that are so weird that it is embarrassing for me to tell.
On Friday morning I got to shadow a reporter for the morning show. We went to Cathedral High school in Del Mar and visiting a high school campus brought back so many memories of my own high school experience.
It has not been so long since I've graduate but a lot has happened.
Watching those students interact with each other and ask me questions about what I do reminded me of how fresh and innocent I was leaving that auditorium that windy June afternoon.
I was full of dreams and goals I wanted to accomplish. I still have those dreams and goals, however, it's different because I am not as naive. It began to get to me when people said how impossible those dreams were but something changed this year.
After three years of staying still and watching life go by, I decided to take action. This taking of action led me to NBC.
It was really a very random decision. I was set on going to Mexico for four moths and live with some friends and do absolutely nothing. But something parked inside. I thought "Why not?"...""May be I could do it" and I did. I felt so confident writing the essays and turning in the application. Something inside me told me I was going to make it. And I did.
I have been an intern at NBC for about 12 weeks now and it has been great. I work early 4 am to 9 am shifts and have been learning a lot!
I guess somethings do happen for a reason...so for now I am enjoying my last weeks of intern life and writing this in a middle of a breaking story. So I gtg!
