Hi Dyanna,
This isn't what is meant by an annotated resume, but looks like a normal resume. Anyway, I would think about bringing it to Career Services for additional assistance in order to help you make it as strong as possible. Here are a few general comments: Take off HS - you are almost a college graduate. Need to list the name of your degree!!!!!! And also your concentration areas!!! You can list your internship under Employment instead of skills learned.
Good luck with your future career endeavors!

Dyanna, the resume needs some serious help. I want to be honest with you so you don't get blindsided if you take this to a future employer. As Jessica said take the high school info off. Also, some of the skills you put on there seem a little unimportant. Be creative, think outside the box, really dig to find true transferable skills that will help you find that new career. If you are happy in your current position than great, but if you consider going outside U-Haul, than get to a Resume class so they can help you. I would start by adding tons of info to the resume and then go through a process of eliminating rather than trying to find the perfect info to place on there to start with. It's much easier to take off after you flooded it with relevant info.
