Happenings


I have decided to do an internship this summer. My area of focus is Marketing and PR. I am looking specifically in the east coast, with New York being my main focus right now. If anyone has advice on where to look for internships or housing, or anything they think might be useful for me to know, I would greatly appreciate it. The application process is overwhelming, but I am excited for a new adventure. Keep your fingers crossed for me.


Well January was pretty uneventful. I have however made a few purchases. On Martin Luther King Day I bought myself my new baby. It is a 2007 Mazda 6. It is silver. I love it!!!! The car has treated me great so far, however, Friday morning on my way to work I had a blowout. I was on the highway so it was a bit scary, gratefully however though I was able to pull over and get out of the way. Matt was able to come help me change the tire. We couldn't get my car jack out of the trunk however, so I called Cindee and she came to our rescue and brought us her car jack. So I was supposed to be at work at 845 and I arrived at 10. I appreciate an understanding manager, who wasn't mad but rather worried. So other than that, things are well with the car, and let me tell you...I Look GOOD in that Car!!!! HAHA.


Last night I went to go purchase a new Mac Laptop. I got everything I wanted picked out, and computer was in hand, when I looked at my wallet and I had left my credit card at home. Big blonde moment of the week right there. Luckily they put it on hold for me, so I will be the new proud owner of a Mac tomorrow evening. Marko was with me and so I am really glad he will never let me live that down. It was rather embarrassing. We also went and saw Taken with Marko and his brother Nik and his roommate. It was a very intense movie, but I really liked it. It is terrible to know and think that that kind of stuff is actually happening, but it is. We went to Trio for dinner. We saw some very STRANGE things while waiting, but it was DELICIOUS!! Definitely worth the wait!


This month I also went to my first Sundance experience. We didnt see any shows, but we had a fun night going to Squatter's pub and walking the streets of Park City. February has a lot of great things planned, so I am looking forward to it. More posts to come....

Sweet car! I'm glad you were ok after you're blowout- I would have been very freaked out. Good luck finding an internship- the east coast sounds like a fun place to spend the summer!

Hey you, I'm glad I officially have your blog now, thanks for the comment! I was wondering how Erin Madsen Langford found out my blog from "Megan", assuming she meant Megan Tate. He he, so here you are! I can't believe you bought ANOTHER cute car--and a Mazda 6 at that--very impressive. As for NYC--I could never live there--but wahoo, I love it! When you know if you're going to go there, Clifford can totally hook you up with finding housing with people in the singles ward where he is in the bishopric. Ciao Ciao dearie!
P.S. You went to Sundance without coming to see me in Provo? Tss tss, that is 20 minutes from my house! And...I have a season pass there that is currently not usable right now (with my fractured tail bone for ski purposes that is. :))

Hey Megan!!! I'm so glad you have a blog. I know I've talked to you a little on facebook, but I kind of hate facebook. Blogging is so much more fun! So, first of all... I love your car. 2nd, I love your mac, and 3rd, I think an internship on the east coast sounds like a blast!!! Oh, and how is cute little Stephanie Williams? I don't think I've talked to her since she got home from her mish.
