Wow! Where does the time go? It seems like just last week I was writing about the spring time and how I was looking forward to the warm summer months. Well summer has come and almost gone.
These past few months I have been interning at Odney Advertising and loving it! I started in the Minot office, but this summer I transferred down to work full time in Bismarck. I am doing pretty much the same thing I do at college only they are paying me :) I have heard people say "I don't work at my job, I enjoy what I do." I didn't really think it was possible.. but I enjoyed every minute "working" this summer.
Some of my duties were to travel to Minot every Wednesday and take pictures for the website www.minotbroadway.com. My co-worker Emily and I keep the website maintained and up-to-date. I also got the chance to show off my writing skills by writing a couple letter to the editors for different clients, also I did some writing for the North Dakota Tourism Department. Being the low man on the totem pole I was also assigned various tasks that no one else wanted, which was fine.
My first major job experience was a complete success. I've done a lot a important work this summer, learned a lot new information and most importantly worked extremely well with my co-workers and met a lot of really knowledgeable and fun people.
It will be hard leaving the good friends I have gotten to know in Bismarck, but I will be back with more stories and adventures. My awesome PR department (3 women) has taken it upon them selves to live vicariously through me. I keep them updated on my female situation and other various topics.
Yes, it has been a fun summer down in the Man/Bis area, but now I am going back to Minot. Where it all began. I will be starting my junior year of college and I will still be working at part-time out of the Minot office.
