I Am A Terrible Person.
I’ve done a terrible job maintaining this blog. Hopefully, I can improve that during the new year.

Recap.
I’ve completed the Fall semester of my senior year at Carolina, and I’m back home (in Maine) for a couple weeks. I’ve had a FANTASTIC time sleeping and sitting on the couch, bored. It’s my first opportunity to “idle” since, shit, last Christmas!

The Future.
I’ll be in NYC Dec 31-Jan 6 for job interviews and to hang out. Several of my friends are apprehensive to graduate but I’m damn excited to do it. As Jerry Della Famina once said, “Advertising is the most fun you can have with your clothes on.” And I totally believe it. Originally, I had planned to take some time off after graduation. You know, putter around Europe and do whatever recent college-grads do there. But, following a brief examination of my finances, I concluded that I can’t afford Europe, yet. With that said, f I had simply thought back to the last time I had an income–about three years ago–I could have spared myself the effort of loading Quicken.

Plan B.
Plan B is: move to NYC upon graduation in May and jump into a job. Perhaps, I’ll take a few weeks off in 6 months or a year to travel. And to that end, I’ve revised my portfolio.

My Portfolio.
I’ve refurbished my portfolio–I added a few projects from my summer internship at Crispin Porter + Bogusky and an integrated campaign for Virgin Mobile that I created during an advertising class.
