A Stream of Consciousness as I Sit in an Agency Visit

I shouldn’t have worn these shoes. 

I hope the person leading this visit didn’t notice that it took me a solid two minutes to search through my backpack for my pad and pen.

He’s talking too fast, and I’m not sure if I should be writing down the words on the slides or if I should be writing down his fast words. To think I’m a senior in college and still don’t know how to properly take notes. 

Okay, advertising creates culture. Noted. 

I’m never going to make it in advertising. 

Have more confidence in yourself, Liv.

I’m going to make it in advertising. 

Seeing that typo on this presentation is actually comforting. 

This presenter listens to cooler music than all of us, and he knows it.

Oh damn, I forgot to write that down. 

There’s something special about seeing that producer beam with pride as he presents his work.

Question time, oh boy.

Gotta come up with a good question, gotta think of a good question. 

Is it possible to have infinite questions yet none at all? I’ll clarify: infinite stupid questions yet none smart enough to be voiced? 

Have more confidence in yourself, Liv. 

Question: asked. Nailed it. Is my face red?
