big city dreams

do you ever get super excited just about even the idea of something? I do. I do a lot. I'm a dreamer and I come up with these crazy ideas for my life. I'd say maybe 18% of them actually pan out, but I get super excited with each new idea nevertheless. But you know, I'm okay with that. Most of my crazy life ideas have to do with spontaneous trips. Like I said, a lot of those ideas never really come to be, but I've also had some pretty great adventures result from these crazy ideas. Okay so here's what I've got for tonight...

For the past three summers I've worked at the family farm. Don't get me wrong, it's been a real blessing that I've had that available to me, but I'm determined that this summer I'm going to get away from this place and go out and experience something new. Thus, I'm starting the job search early. Don't dare tell me I don't try! haha. Over the past week I've really just had the city of Chicago on my mind. It's weird. I don't even know. But it keeps coming up in conversation and just...weird. And soo...I began googling internships in Chicago because I kind of need an internship to graduate (even though I might get that taken care of in January...annnnyways..) So I came across a program called University of Dreams (just sounds Lindsayish huh? lol) okay so basically how this works is you apply to the program and they gaurantee to place you in an internships in a program of your choice (marketing, fashion... you name it pretty much) and you also get to pick your city (chicago, la, nyc, LONDON...) and with the tuiton you pay for this program they include your housing and meals and bus fees and everything for those 8 weeks. and they bring in speakers once a week and have weekend trips to explore the city and you're living with all these other college students in the program... So pretty much I'm thinking this sounds really great. I would never be able to set all of this up for myself. I just feel like I want to get away for a summer. I want a new city. I want new people. I want to start figuring things out about what I want.

So this is my newest dream pursuit lol. But let's not laugh at it yet...because every 18 out of 100 times I actually find a way to pull these things off and follow through. :)

Another thought of the day.... I really want to go back to Italy. More on that later maybe.

song of the day: Party in the USA- miley cyrus. You know you like it too!!

I love you all. A lot.
Blessings,
