   Remember that week I kept complaining about being stressed out of my mind with internship interviews and whatnot? First off, let me just say HALLELUJAH, that time has passed! I'm done with my first round of interviews.

The good news:

   I got a call back from a local firm for a second round interview in Great Falls this Friday. (Yay...? Not really keen on spending a summer in Great Falls but we'll see how it goes).

   I received an offer to participate in a spring tax internship starting in January! AND I can use it as an elective and actually get course credits for it. PLUS it pays $12.50/hour. But...you have to work Saturdays. There are pros and cons of everything, aren't there?

But the best news of all (so far):

   I got an invitation to attend a second round interview/tour at the KPMG Anchorage office later this month!
   In one click I basically decided I'm going to do an internship in Alaska next summer. Why? Because if you're not interested, they encourage you not to attend the 2nd round interview because they pay to fly you up, house you, feed you, entertain you, etc and why would they do all that for you if you weren't at least considering that particular office? Looks like I'm considering it, because I confirmed my attendance yesterday and will be flying there on the 24th.

AH!

   Garrett's particularly excited about it because I think he secretly wishes he was an Alaskan Mountain Man.

   I've still got some pretty big decisions ahead of me. I wish someone would swoop in and figure out the best path for me to take, but it's all up to me. And that's scary. Hopefully I can somehow determine a way to make my last semester fairly unstressful, get internship experience, make money, and not regret letting other options pass me by.
