Where has the time gone?

Wow have I fallen behind a ton. Things are still going really well at the internship. My big project for the semester is going to be the Best Buddies day for our corporate offices. I will be in charge of the entire project. It will be about September 4th is the planned day. We normally have around 300-400 people that come to it. I am really excited to plan and execute the game plan for the event. I gained valuable experience in event planning from my work with the food&care coalition last semester. I will really use that experience with this project. One cool thing that I got to be a part was we recently had our new PR firm for the United States come in. Publicis was the name of the firm. It was a really good opportunity for me to be around PR pros. I was really impressed with these guys. They all ready some great ideas how we can improve our PR efforts in the United States. It was also a great opportunity to meet a lot of our founders, and executives. Through this I have gained a lot of confidence in the people around me. The company really does have the best talent in the industry with us. I really think my two bosses are some of the best minds in PR. I all ready have learned so much from Jeff and Bob. It would be a dream come true to work these two great minds full time. I guess that is not up to me at this moment. This journal thing has not worked at so well. But I will repent and do better.
