Interning in the Greatest City on Earth (in my opinion)

It's official.

I've just accepted an internship for the upcoming fall semester...


In NEW. YORK. CITY.

For those of you who might not know me super well, I absolutely love New York City and have always said that if I had the opportunity to live there (for even just a short amount of time), I would jump on it. This little lifelong dream became a reality a few months ago, when I was accepted into this wonderful program here at school called Belmont East. Along with about 25 fellow Belmont students (and NYC fanatics), I'll be traveling up on August 16th and staying through December.

Although I was accepted into the program awhile ago now, I think it has only just recently hit me that I will be living/studying/working/hanging out/eating/exploring/frolicking in the greatest city on earth. I keep sitting here thinking, NEW YORK CITY. ME? A WHOLE SEMESTER. WHAT?

As far as the internship goes, I couldn't be more excited! It's with a little sync/music licensing company located in the Financial District called Bank Robber Music (Heh, get it? Gotta love their humor already).


A sync/music licensing company may sound incredibly boring to you, however, it's anything but. These are the guys that pitch artists and their songs for film, TV, commercials, etc. It's the greatest job on earth. Not only does Bank Robber Music have an incredible artist roster (that includes Bon Iver, She & Him, The Tallest Man on Earth, Beirut, and M.Ward to name a few), but they have SO MANY great placements (ranging from music placed in Subaru commercials to episodes of Grey's Anatomy and House). They have a small team at Bank Robber Music, but they know what they're doing. And best of all, they all seem incredibly friendly and welcoming.

...The other awesome thing about this internship is that they only need me two days a week. So, the rest of the time, I can do all that eating/exploring/frolicking I was talking about. AH. Not real, right?!


Life can be so fantastic so often.
