First steps…

Hello friends… welcome to my world! This is your friendly neighborhood marketing intern…

It is 5:00am and I’m still awake… wide awake. I’ve been up since 2:00am today thinking about my first project as a marketing intern. Project 1 is… *drumroll*… marketing research and creating databases!

Before I start chattering away, I’d like to start at the very beginning…

Today I got hired (Yipee!). I had a meeting with my new boss, Jordan at www.telltenfriends.com. Although Jordan is a friend of mine, I was a bit nervous. I could feel my sweat escape my glands. It wasn’t a very pretty sight. I guess somehow I felt like I was going through an interview… and we all know how that’s like. Good thing Jordan was cool enough to offer me some wine. So… he explained to me how the biz works (it’s a secret… no, not really) and asked me what my future plans are. Of course, as any smart homosapien … I plan to grow within the company. About half an hour later, his wife, Alex, arrived. He gave her the low down then we got into some cackling or chatting (the boss seems to like the word cackle). That pretty much ended the interview session. Phew!

Now, back to Project 1. So far, all I’ve done is organize the existing data base (considering it’s early morn and my head is still in lala-land). Tomorrow or later, rather, I will jump on this monster and conquer.

PS. You like my 5:00am picture? I refuse to take a front angle at this time of day… I tell you… s-c-a-r-y.
