(Changes in a NUT SHELL) My sweet husband, decided last summer after studying for the gruesome, horrible, awful, disgusting MCAT that he couldn't go through with his plans to go to Med School. He was always in the BYU Marriot School, but was doing his PreMed requirements on the side, so that he could be a doctor. He finally decided (Much too late, but just in time) that he would like to be an Investment Banker. So we kicked ourselves into high gear because with Blake already being a junior he was way behind. To make a long story short, Blake worked so hard over 6 months to do interview after interview, and to learn everything he needed to know for the interviews about investment banking. There were many courses he had to teach himself because he hadn't taken all of the classes a normal investment banking student would take. I am so proud of him because he ended up getting an internship with Wells Fargo this summer in Investment Banking in New York. We were so scared that it was too late and that he missed his opportunity because he hadn't been preparing as long as some people. After a TON of hard work, he got into the group he wanted (We are so grateful!!). I truly believe that Heavenly Father is blessing us right now, I think he knows how hard Blake has worked his whole life to prepare himself for a good career, and I am so grateful that we were able to have faith in him through the hard times.
We are now in North Carolina for the internship training and it has been way fun! We fly out tomorrow for New York to begin that adventure...
I decided to quit my job (I got the job before I knew we were leaving) and I actually quit early because my parents decided to take us on a cruise for my graduation (& Blake's although he has 5 credits left). This deserves it's own blog post... So i'll post on that soon.. It was SO FUN. ANNNND we got to go to Disneyland with our Brother and Sister-in-law and their cute kids. Best two weeks ever before we left for the internship!
I also need to post about our week in North Carolina and I need to get caught up so that I can start posting about my adventures in New York.... Stay Tuned!
