Dallas, TX

Thursday was my first time visiting the great state of Texas! It was pretty....flat! Downtown Dallas is really nice and a safe and friendly city to walk around. One thing I really loved about the city was how all the buildings were lit up at night.

I guess I should probably explain why we went to Dallas in the first place. These last 3 months, Morgan has been working tirelessly to prepare for internship interviews. He had approx. 15 interviews within a 2 week time period and these aren't little 30 min. interviews. These are 3-4 hour long interviews that take lots of preparing for. Morgan is most interested in management consulting and there are 3 main companies within that industry; McKinsey, Baine, and Boston Consulting Group. Luckily the one we were hoping for came through...

McKinsey held a cultivation weekend for all the people they gave internship offers to. They do this so that we can meet and talk to lots of people that work and McKinsey and so we make sure this is the right company for us. They flew us down, put us in a nice hotel, fed us LOTS of food and introduced us to a lot of really great people. We had a great time and Morgan looks forward to working with them this summer.

 The bright blue Chase tower is where Morgan will be working!

One of the best parts about this trip was seeing that there is a telephone right next to the toilet :) Is that supposed to be classy?

 

Another great perk to the Dallas visit was getting to hang out with my awesome cousin Sheena and her cute family! They took us to the worlds best grocery store...really!
