So, while growing up can
be totally scary, but I guess there are some things that can be cool, too. I
know that my last post was kind of whiny, like "OMG growing up. Wah!"
but I am starting to see that lots of things can be cool about growing up, too.
I have been blessed with many different opportunities this year. Let me just
tell you about them...
- Serengetee is an organization
that makes clothes and bags with fabrics from around the world. When you
purchase something from Serengetee, you can shop by fabric. Each fabric
correlates to a specific cause in the country that fabric comes from, and
when you purchase the shirt, a portion of the proceeds goes back to that
organization. It's pretty cool, right? I know that for me, as a poor
college student, this is a great way to support causes that you care about
because you are also getting an awesome shirt! That is something that I
know I can totally justify. So, I am a campus rep with Serengetee, which
means that I try to promote Serengetee, especially through social media.

- The Center
for Justice is
a nonprofit in Spokane where I have started interning! CFJ is a legal
advocacy organization that assists people who have nowhere else to turn.
So, that is super awesome. I am working with the Development Director (she
is awesome) and helping her with all kinds of things! Research, writing
thank yous, contacting caterers and printers, and basically anything else
she needs me to do. It's pretty exciting. I am learning a lot about
nonprofit work that I did not have any idea about before, so that's cool.
If you want to check out CFJ, go to its website!
- Keaton Row is a new, super exciting thing that I have started. It is a website that allows you to be paired up with an online stylist who creates lookbooks for you at absolutely no cost! The clothes are from four reputable retailers including Nordstrom and Asos. There is no cost for shipping and no cost for having a stylist! It's super great, and the perfect thing for busy, professional women who don't want to take the time, or don't have the time to go shopping! So, through Keaton Row, I am now a stylist! This has always been something I have wanted to do- I love putting outfits together for people, and the chance to get paid for it, that's like a dream come true! I make commission off the clothes that my clients purchase and basically get to play dress up all day! If you want to check it out, go to my website!
So, obviously,
there are some wonderful things going for me right now! Although it is still a
little scary for me to grow up and graduate, things are looking up and I am
getting more and more excited for my life after college! Now, I am looking for
a "real job" which is kind of lame. If you have any ideas about
places that are hiring, please feel free to let me know! Anyway, that's my life
right now! It's pretty awesome.
