Post Grad Life

Hi everyone!
These past two weeks have been CRAZY busy!!!
I graduated two weeks ago and am so so fortunate and blessed to have such an amazing family that came all the way to Ohio to watch me graduate I cannot get over how wonderful it was to have them here for a week!  The weather was not ideal, actually it was awful it was below 50 degrees and raining throughout my graduation and my grad party... but I was surrounded by my family and best friends so it was perfect to me!

In the past two weeks I have graduated from college, finished my track career, started two new jobs, moved into a new condo, and I am just starting to settle into my post grad life... and let me tell you I am LOVING it so far!! 

I have always been an old soul and being an adult has always been attractive to me so I wasn't very worried about the adjustment and everyone has called me naive.  I was a little worried and thought I was going to be a little nostalgic about leaving my track athlete life behind, which it might hit me later when track season comes around for my younger friends, but I finished at my last regional meet,  very confident and relieved.  I prd in my last 400 meter hurdle race so I ended on a very good note, but let me tell you, that race as much as I loved it is HARD and I felt so happy that I never had to put my body through that again lol.  I am keeping up with working out though because I do not want to get out of shape so I have been developing habits of going on some type of run and incorporating lactic acid work into my long runs so I can keep my muscle tone!  I will definitely post some of the workouts I have been doing for you guys soon because they are quick for people that don't have a lot of extra time to workout, but you work HARD!

I am really really loving working out on my own time and making a lot more money than serving wages ;)  I love packing a lunch and not having homework, and getting ready for a big girl job!

My post grad plans are a little complicated, but for the first time in so long I really feel like everything is together and I can have a solid routine!  
This summer I will be returning to my beloved job as the field event coordinator for the Champion City Kings.  This job is so fun and so dear to my heart because it was my first summer in Ohio, single, independent, on my own and I really found myself and fell in love with the community through this job so I am beyond excited to enter my third season with them!!
I also have a very very part time, very entry level marketing job with the Columbus Crew where I put on various events throughout Columbus and help with their gamely promotions.. It works so well with my schedule because there is a team of us and we sign up for the events we want to help plan and put on so its actually very ideal for my summer plans!
My "day job" is with a local contracting company in Springfield called C&N contractors. I am currently redesigning their website and will be creating various promotional videos for them throughout the summer.  I am very excited to be creative with this!
I have a hectic summer before I start working ONE FULL TIME job with Insight Global in September.  I have no idea how my brain will adjust to just having one job but I am excited to make some big girl money and have a career!


So that is a quick update on how I have been dealing with post grad life I will be sure to post some more for you all I have some exciting ideas and events coming up!!!
Thanks for reading!
