the advertising nerd

i've been making much progress with internships so much so that i'm stuck deciding between opportunities and might even have to turn something down. how unexpected haha i applied to everywhere like crazy thinking i would get nothing. i guess god exists after all.

so i don't know whether i should go with nike now or wait for an advertising agency..

nike (pros)
- huge company with a global name
- its nike!
- its marketing which is a good foundation

nike (cons)
- who the hell wants to be in portland??
- it's not advertising
- accepting so early makes me think i might regret if something better comes along..

other options
1. arnold worldwide boston
2. maip program somewhere in the states
3. m&c saatchi LONDON
4. ogilvy LONDON
5. ketchum LONDON
6. johannes leonardo new york (which has the creepiest website ever http://www.johannesleonardo.com/creativecommunity/)

if i accept nike now.. i could be giving up something greater.

during mo today the prof showed a video which was an ad and i was like oh i've seen this before! (i really do love this! it's a fun ad and there's dancing! what more could you ask for? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQ3d3KigPQM) and char was like what why would you have seen this and i was like i like to google and watch ads haha especially ones that are quirky for something, you know. and she thought it was the weirdest thing ever and called me an advertising nerd ): for some reason that kind of helped me decide haha i know i want to do advertising. it's what i've always wanted. even if it's with a less international firm than nike. i've always known i would work in the advertising industry. be in a large bustling, sometimes lonely city. stay in the office late. pitch huge campaigns that people around the world would see. and at the end of that stint, have lots of babies (:

design my own beach house

adopt a puppy to romp on the front lawn

be a good mommy/bake cookies

but it all starts with the advertising. so. i think it's going to be bye bye nike.
