Hello everyone!!! :wave:

Wow, it's been a while! Between being in Denmark for 4 months, coming home, moving to Kansas City and starting my internship, I feel like I've been MIA for far too long. But since my last journal, I have gone from not being "in Kansas anymore" to actually being in Kansas! Thus the picture of Dorothy! ^__^

Image Description

But despite all the changes, things are going really well. When I got home from Denmark, I had a wonderful reunion with my family, boyfriend, and friends. As much as I loved Europe, I really missed this country and everything in it! Mmmm... American food.... :hungry:

I spent a nice two weeks at home, then made the 8 and a half hour hour trek to Kansas City 3 weeks ago. My boyfriend (who had started his internship a week before my arrival) and I moved into our little apartment. It's really all we need though, and we've actually gotten it to feel pretty homey, despite the fact that our side of town is basically a ghost town... And my summer internship is going fine - it's at a small software company in Overland Park, Kansas (I cross the MO/KS border to go to work, lol). It's more sales-oriented and low-paying than I would have liked, but I'm still gaining good experience and getting by. I really like the people though - we play frisbee every day during lunch (even in the 95 degree heat... oy), and I joined the company beach volleyball team - the Dainty Wrists! :D

Anyway, I hope you all are doing well! I have more time on my hands now, so I renewed my sub and I'll definitely be more involved here. AND I have some art in the works, both Sonic-related as well as something completely new from me!

:heart: KL

Oh no, I'm coming back! I'm only in KC for the summer! Then I'm going back to IU for my senior year! After that, who knows? :-)

Any inspiration from Denmark?

All I can say is welcome to the Midwest! You're living about 1.5-2 hrs from me and I go to KC for BBQ every now and then. Oh yes, I love their BBQ! Oh, Worlds of Fun is pretty nice too. Beware of the tornadoes, which occur at a rate of a few per week if we're lucky XD

I hope both your internships go well. What will you be doing exactly?

Someday you'll understand the reason behind there confusing days. For now, please smile...

I actually did get some inspiration in Denmark! The country is pretty well known for its design aesthetic (it's the origin of the egg chair and artichoke lamp! XD), so I really did have a lot of creative influences around me. Unfortunately, I didn't really have any means for creative outlets, so I had to bottle it up till I came home.

I'm from Indiana, so KC is nice in that it's still familiarly midwestern! :-) The BBQ here definitely is amazing - so far I've had ribs at Jack Stacks and Oklahoma Joe's... omg delicious. And I'm hoping to get to Worlds of Fun sometime this summer! :D How long have you lived in this region?

The BF is doing a software engineering internship at a big medical firm, and I'm working on launching a new video software program at my small company. Basically I'm trying to get resellers onboard and doing some viral marketing online. What are you doing this summer?
