Lovin' Life


So after about two weeks at my internship, the votes are in... I have the coolest job ever. Ok, maybe its not the coolest ever but for me at this time of my life, it is perfect. I work with three guys at a marketing company. The creative director and owner are both very experienced in the design field and have taken it upon themselves to take me under their wings. As an intern, I would expect boring office work but they have already had me work on multiple design projects. Projects that are being sent out to clients! I am learning so much and building up my portfolio so when it comes to find a permanent job I will be ready!

First Day on the Job


Today was my first day at my internship! I woke up bright and early at 6:30 to get in a morning workout and get ready for my big day. I ended up getting to work in no time at all and even before the others arrived. After the guys came in, we got right to work. I learned how to use Word Press and edited a website for most of the day. Later, I was put in charge of designing a logo for one of the newer clients.

Tomorrow I have my first client meeting!! So far so good!

I also got a call from the Gap today too. I am interviewing with them this weekend. I decided that having an unpaid internship is great for experience but not so good on a wallet. Hopefully I can earn some money so I will be less of a burden on my parents and put some away in savings.
