Well, that was a bust.

I kind of (and by kind of I mean completely) abandoned this blog and all presumed attempts to keep whoever in Blogworld updated on my life. I'm not even going to try to come up with an excuse because I can't really use the "I'm just so busy" line for a hefty six-month blog abandonment.

As May 22 is coming closer at race speed, things are starting to pick up. And by things I mean everything is starting to pick up. The job search, the apartment hunt, the mildly desperate efforts to wring out every minute on the college clock until we are positive that we are getting everything we can out of senior year. I use the collective "we" to include every senior around me who is starting to realize that whether they get a B or an A on their next paper hardly matters in the grander scheme of things, every senior who feels the same sense of urgency to hang out with their friends in every spare moment to cram in as many last-minute memories of what exactly it means to be a student as possible. I'm starting to write a list of things I will miss about BU, just so I never forget how much I loved it here despite any complaining I've ever done (I'm still trying to get back the $20.11 that they sneakily made you auto-donate at the bottom of Senior Week registration).

I'm not quite sure what's inspiring me to start this up again. Maybe it's the fact that my best friend has started a blog to document her Peace Corps stories in Moldova. Maybe it's the fact that "branding yourself" has become the buzz phrase of advice for landing a job in advertising. Either way I'll try to post a balance of ad-related material and personal stories that make sense. I'm thinking (hoping) that the last month of college and the now-but-hopefully-not-forever-daunting prospect of Life After College will be full of new, exhilarating, overwhelming stories that are blogworthy enough to hurl into the world wide webernetosphere.

Let's hope I don't disappear from Blogworld for another six months again.
