It's so great to have some interns here with me! Like I said in our meeting, I've been interning at Tocquigny since January, with Kristie. But in April, everyone left me and Kristie took a little break so I was a bit lonely! Anyway, I am looking forward to our intern project, even if I have to leave during the early stages of it.
A few quick facts about me:
- Age 21, entering senior year
- UT undergrad double majoring in Advertising (media sequence) and Spanish, w/ Business Foundations
- Accepted into UT advertising early grad program, interested in account planning and international adv but not too sure yet??? It seems like account planners get to travel more :-)
- Born in Tokyo, Japan, but spent most of my life in nearby Round Rock, TX
- Former UT cheerleader (freshman and sophomore years) Hook 'em!
- I LOVE singing but have had some damage to my voice over the years... but sang the national anthem at a UT/A&M baseball game when I was in high school
- I LOVE traveling, meeting new people, learning about different cultures, and trying different foods
- I enjoy helping and volunteering, and am the Volunteer Coordinator for Texas Ad Group
- I've got great parents and a brother who is about to be an engineering freshman at A&M.... boooo
I'm enjoying my last month here at Tocquigny in the account services department until I leave to go backpacking for 5 weeks through Europe. I'll be in Spain alone for a week until I meet with my good friend in France and from there we're doing: Nice and French Riviera area, Rome, Athens and Greek Islands, Venice, Vienna, Budapest, Prague, Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris, and London, in that order. I'm getting a little nervous about the week alone, but I studied in Spain last summer and Spainards are wonderful, warm, laid back people. I just couldn't miss the running of the bulls in Pamplona... and yes, I will be participating in the running! I'm hoping I won't be completely alone - my boyfriend is in London now and may be able to meet me. He's a former UT tennis player from Australia and works for one of the tennis pros. They're getting ready for Wimbledon right now, and I'm sad I couldn't go earlier to watch... but unfortunately, summer school doesn't end until July 7 :-(
And Kristie, the s'mores sound amazing! We should all take an intern "lunch" break there!!
Oh and one more thing... Barrett actually prefers to be called Rogers Barrett... for some odd reason...???... so don't hesitate to say hi to Rogers when you see him!

Do you know Brandon Smith? He's been a UT cheerleader for the last 3 years. We lived in the same dorm freshman year
Yeah, I know him. He is a good guy. He dated one of the other cheerleaders for like 1 or 2 years.. they were really cute. I haven't really kept in touch with him... shouldn't he have graduated by now?
I saw him not that long ago. Im pretty sure he didnt graduate. I think hes going for a victory lap
