Last night I logged onto my blog only to realize I haven’t written very much about anything in the past few months. I feel like it is time for an update.
First and foremost, I am not going to be running the Vegas Marathon this year. I’m pretty bummed about it, but life takes control and I simply have not had the time to get those long training runs in.
Why?
I have moved to Columbus to pursue my career in Public Relations, and I am still looking for that first full-time job. I am working three different jobs right now (hence why I have not had the time to train for a race) as an Intern at a small PR agency called GREENCREST, a hostess at Ted’s Montana Grill and doing liquor promotions with a company based out of Florida for Jameson on the weekends. Needless to say, I am a busy girl!
When I moved here, I was unsure of what was going to happen- or if I was going to stay, (as we all should know, my heart is in New York City and I cannot wait to end up there someday). Anyways, I moved here at the beginning of September and lived on my friend’s couch for a month and a half. Thank you for that Jessica. After deciding I may be able to start a career here after all, I signed a lease with a friend from school and we have been living at our new place for about three weeks. I love it.
With a few interviews and a million job applications out there, something has to turn soon and I can finally start running and enjoying this city the way it is meant to be enjoyed. Columbus has a lot to discover and I keep reading about the fun activities there are to do at night and on the weekends. I want to go try all of these things: the neat local restaurants, unique movie theaters, cafes, traveling shows and exhibits, etc. If you have any recommendations for me, please send them my way at courtneywalker27@gmail.com! I would love to hear from you and to find out new ways to explore the city that I can now call home…
