A few weeks back, you all will probably remember we had a guest speaker come to class? Well I certainly do. In my opinion, Jill is a super human, and she scared me a little! I am a semester from graduating and it was kind of a wake up call to me that soon, I will be in the real world with people like Jill. She is the president of the AIGA in DC (youngest in the nation), writes professionally for a blog, somehow finds time to read a lot, a seemingly successful graphic designer and by the grace of god finds time to get to the gym everyday. I almost found myself envious of her because it seems like she must have 3 clones to get everything done that she accomplishes. She left me hoping that when I graduate I can live a life as busy as hers and be so successful at balancing all of those different elements.

I wouldn’t say she scared me, but it is crazy to think that come May I’ll be in the “real world” trying to find a job. Hopefully we can all be as successful as Jill.
You weren’t the only one. I was sitting there listening to her lecture and everything she is somehow able to accomplish in one day. Seems hectic! The end of the semester came around pretty fast and THAT’S what scared me.
Jill didn’t necessarily scare me, but inspired me! She was so much fun, energetic and really seemed like she wanted to convince us to “crush it” and live and work the lives we want to. I agree that it definitely seemed like she sure does get a lot done! Great for her and I do hope that one day I can be as successful, happy and inspiring as her.
Jill is definitely an energetic people. The discussions here remind me of a joke: Life is: good work/ enough sleep/ social life, choose two.
I do believe that she has read this blog so… I hope not all of you wrote bad things about her.
