The Internship

My internship at PricewaterhouseCooper (PwC) ended on the 12th. It was such a great experience that paid very well. Above is the picture of all the summer interns in the SLC office. SLC is a very small office compared to other offices. Denver, for example, had 15 summer interns, and I believe NYC had 200. Thus, 5 interns made us a very small, close intern group. But the most exciting thing about my internship was that I received a job offer! Woo Woot! I will be starting with them in the SLC office in either the summer or the fall of 2010. This allows me to get my last semester of my Masters degree done and hopefully, hopefully (fingers cross) pass all my CPA exams before I start. The nice thing about PwC is that they offer a nice bonus if you pass the CPA exam in the first year.

The Utah Reception

Here are some of the pictures from Alison's reception in Lehi. Come to find out, Jonathon was not the best person to give the camera to. So we didn't end up with very many pictures. Good thing for the photographer; I will post those pictures when we get them.






The best part of the whole night was the dancing! The kids danced for more than 2 hours!

California Trip and Reception

The last week of July and the first week of August, my parents and brother went on a road trip. First stop was San Francisco where they vistited Alcatraz and went on a tour of a WWII sub.








The next stop was San Jose. I flew to San Jose to join them, but was only able to stay the weekend. I had to get back to Utah to catch my flight to NYC! While in San Jose, we took a tour of the Winchester house.


The door that led to nowhere:


And of course, the main reason for this trip was Alison's and Adam' s reception in San Jose.










After San Jose, my family went to Yosemite National Park where Alison and Adam have been living for the summer. Adam had a law internship there.




They also stopped at Sequoia National Park.

New York!

The accounting club that I belong to at the U, Beta Alpha Psi, sent their officers to New York for a few days for the club's national conference. So last Wednesday to Saturday I was able to enjoy a trip to New York.

Here is what I learned about NYC:

1. Time Square is CRAZY on Friday nights.


2. Centeral Park is 7 miles around. It took about 1 hour and 10 minutes to bike through it.


3. You wouldn't notice the temple unless you looked up

4. Wicked is the best thing ever!!! I never clapped so hard in my life!
