Reality starts now.

 
Well after having the summer of dreams and taking this last summer I had before school was over to really enjoy life and do whatever the heck I wanted to do was absolutley amazing. I was able to grow so much in many ways I never thought possible. It is so crazy to think I am in my LAST semester of college. I remember so clearly my first day at CGCC as a little awkward 18 year old thinking 4 years of this seems forEVER away. Graduating college seemed like the impossible and here I am today starting my internship to finish off this college stuff. I started last week with ADI Meetings and Events and I as I expected the first week was pretty slow and boring. I had to watch a bunch of boring tutorial videos on a software we use called Meeting Evolution. I did some other odd ball jobs just kind of getting used to things and what is expected of me and figuring out what I want to gain out of this internship. So far I have only met/worked with Sue, Margaret, Dallas, and Karen. Sue and Dallas are the sweetest ladies and so much fun to have around. They are full of positive attitudes and reinforcements and just know how to make you feel good and reward you for a job well done. Margaret is who I will be working mostly under, even though she works from home most of the time, but she is very nice. Some other projects I worked on was made a day grid of the Hawaii event that is coming up, researched for travel document wallets to give to all the attendees before they leave, created the daily agenda for when they arrive; which was fun researching all the cool stuff to do in Hawaii and at the resort! Then there is a bunch of other misc. stuff I did as well. Anyways this company is great and so family oriented and full of love. I would love to work here after my internship if they are willing to hire me on. Something cool I learned today about the company is what their abbreivation stands for and the meaning behind it.

Adventure Delivered through Inspiration (ADI)- Creating Life Experiences, Delivering the Dream.
- All travel is adventure
- Adventure creates opportunity
- Positive attitude breeds happiness & inspiration
- Life is an adventure, live it to the fullest

Isn't that motto so fitting for me? I think this company and I were meant to be :)
 
Anyways Happy Hump day!

September First Camping Trip with Myla

Image
  Started out with Labor Day and Lucas had it off so Micah joined us on a bike ride. We we’re still watching the Millett’s so we had Jane sleep over so she could watch Myla while we rode. Then we had breakfast and hung out there and then had all the cousins over for a swim party to celebrate Alli & Jacobs birthday. Myla started developing a rash around her eyes and mouth that seems to be caused from heat. It flares up in the car and after naps. So hopefully it will go away soon. We had Sunday dinner with my family and the boys had fun laughing Myla around In a box. This week I filmed Traci Beagley and her breast cancer journey and it was very powerful and I’m glad I was able to be apart of bringing awareness to so many. I just had another afternoon with the Millett’s. Next I went to the library with Tayzia for baby Olympics.  Then that night we went to the ASU game with the Packard’s and Trennon & Cari Anne. We got shaved ice that smelt like gasoline so that wa...

Now What?

This past month has been different and not quite what I was expecting. This whole semester I had been working hard for ADI and with the hope that they would hire me on after the internship was over. They had been telling me multiple times that they love me and are trying to get a position open to keep me here for good. Having that said I was kind of banking of getting hired post graduation. Well a couple weeks ago Sue took me to lunch to inform me that they actually do not have a position available because Hotel Site Select has not taken off as fast as they were hoping and they will not have the money to pay me. I was pretty upset and sad because I really LOVE this business, and the other employees are so good to me, and I was already making my future plans to be with them. That lunch meeting was not the happiest, and I was pretty down the next week or so. Many thoughts began to run through my head about being jobless, and how am I going to pay off my loans, and where should I apply no...

October Beginning of Holidays

Image
First day of the month and we had the Bodine ladies over for sister lunch which was really refreshing since we had been home all week not feeling good. It was a good time like always, I’m glad to have them as my sister in laws! Friday we did pickleball with the Skousen’s, Packard’s, and Standage’s for date night and it was super fun to be active and have a group date night! Saturday I had a Romanian Pentecostal wedding that was from 8:30am-7:30pm. It was looong but fairly easy since there is a lot of driving to different locations. It was also conference so I listened to a little bit during the drives. Sunday we started potty training... again. We woke up and “threw” the diapers away and made Myla say goodbye to them and she gladly did. Then we put on underwear and told her to tell us every time she has to go. She had about 7 accidents that day which is normal cause I was pumping her with water & juice all day to make her pee more. It was really nice to have Lucas here on day 1 bec...
