So long, Deep South | Living the Blues
https://erinmkenna.wordpress.com/2014/05/14/so-long-deep-south
We all have something to talk about. So long, Deep South. May 14, 2014. May 14, 2014. I was raised next to a cow pasture. My Paw Paw has had at least two head of cattle since I was tall enough to look out the window and watch him mow his land. I worked at a restaurant called The Shed. I hope to bring a little slice of the Deep South I know and love to The Windy/Second City. I vow to bring my love for salt water, the Mississippi blues, the over-usage of y’all, and my love for LSU sports. 4 thoughts on &ld...

A second home (with a lot more purple) | Living the Blues
https://erinmkenna.wordpress.com/2014/05/07/a-second-home-with-a-lot-more-purple
We all have something to talk about. A second home (with a lot more purple). May 7, 2014. May 9, 2014. I’m leaving Louisiana State University in less than two weeks. I remember the first time campus came into view. I rode with a friend from high school and saw Alex Box Stadium. As we neared Nicholson. I had to do a double take because the college baseball stadiums I had seen prior to this one paled in comparison. Then I saw the cathedral of college football. This slideshow requires JavaScript. I was a st...

Kenna Herself. | Living the Blues
https://erinmkenna.wordpress.com/kenna-herself
We all have something to talk about. I’m a music enthusiast. If I have a free night to spare, I’ll be in some venue singing to an obscure band. Blues is my favorite genre, and I attribute that to my roots. I am a native of Mississippi, specifically the Gulf Coast (where there’s much more to see than the casinos). I am leaving the South soon to pursue a career in the field of PR in Chicago with Edelman Public Relations. Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window). 3 thoughts on “ Kenna Herself. You ar...

Commuter shoes and Mississippi blues | Living the Blues
https://erinmkenna.wordpress.com/2014/06/09/commuter-shoes-and-mississippi-blues
We all have something to talk about. Commuter shoes and Mississippi blues. June 9, 2014. June 9, 2014. Tuesday marks my second week in Chicago. Robert, Kolby and Jake help me navigate the city for the first time. (They’re a blessing.). Since May 27 I’ve experienced multiple train rides, I’ve power walked with the best of them through the streets of downtown Chicago, I’ve seen DeKalb in all its corn field glory and more. I’ve heard gasps when I say this in public. Not in a “Why are you say...8221; or a &#...

Post-grad life | Living the Blues
https://erinmkenna.wordpress.com/2014/08/19/post-grad-life
We all have something to talk about. August 19, 2014. I felt like it was about time for a life update. Graduation was May 16 three months and some change ago. I see what people mean now when they say the working world makes time fly by even faster. Needless to say, I feel like my day is halfway over by 8 am. Entry level means making $3 Chuck work. I miss the smell of salt water and the solace I feel on the bow of a boat. I miss seeing YETI coolers and Costas around every corner. I miss hearing th...I get...

“Damn girl.” | Living the Blues
https://erinmkenna.wordpress.com/2014/06/27/damn-girl
We all have something to talk about. 8220;Damn girl.”. June 27, 2014. Today has been an incredible day. I have had the opportunity to learn from Senior VPs and CMOs of massive corporations. I have learned about the importance of adaptability in the workplace and what top-tier outlets are looking for in potential employees. I witnessed the unveiling of a street sign in honor of an esteemed and influential woman in public relations. 8220;Damn girl.”. 8220;Damn girl,” said the guy walking past me....Nothing...

My Country Deep Tour experience with David Nail and Sam Hunt | Living the Blues
https://erinmkenna.wordpress.com/2014/05/06/my-country-deep-tour-experience-with-david-nail-and-sam-hunt
We all have something to talk about. My Country Deep Tour experience with David Nail and Sam Hunt. May 6, 2014. Last week I had the opportunity to attend the David Nail concert in association with the AT&T Country Deep Tour. I expected an amazing show complete with songs I could sing to the person next to me (singing with strangers happens to be my favorite part of shows). What I didn’t expect was how much of an experience AT&T Country Deep provided prior to and during the concert. To read the interview.
