working = free food = no diet
i dont even know why i am posting. I don't even read lj anymore. Soooo.... Work is alright. I work at the Metro Atlanta Chamber in Economic Development. Its in centennial park. I like my job, it took me a long time to feel that way. At first it was borrring. I am not the only intern there is one other called Jane. haha. She goes to GWU and is home for the summer. Unfortunatly she only works part-time so when she isnt there time goes by slowly. I work from 8:30 to 5. My work is any work my bosses dont want to do. sooo cool! no. well kinda. I am currently working compiling a list of Fortune 500 companies in Metro Atl, finding the Top Employers in Atl and doing some work for the state Economic Development Department. The Chamber used to have about 15 interns but now its only me and jane. The only interns were there with the Mayor's Program for high school grads. They just finished their internship on Monday. Sadness. Right when I was getting to know them they leave. I am sad that the other interns left because now there is no one to distract me from doing my work.
Oh yea the food. free food. free cake and ice cream and catered food and chocolate but apparently i dont need chocolate since I already represent chocolate city? (awkward, don't ask). I realized that you cannot work at the chamber at eat healthy because every day is an event like someones bday or someone's getting married so there is food. Today it was ice cream sundaes. I wonder what tommorow will bring.
The work environment is professional. I am NOT. I need to step up. I need to learn how to have conversations by the water cooler. This is my opportunity to network.
Apparently my bosses like me. I don't know what to believe. They took me out to eat..at a buffet. At first I was stressed like how much do I eat, I dont want to look rude. Turns out they like to eat. Its strange being the youngest person. The youngest person besides me and jane is my boss who is about 30.
I need to take pictures of myself at work but I am afraid my boss will look at me weird. oh well, I will do it anyway.
After work is what I don't like. I am bored. I know people who live in Georgia but not well enough to hang out. So after work I go home. home = my sister's house where i will be living this year and never again. I havent lived with her in 10 yrs so I forgot what it was like, now i know and never again. junior yr apartment?
School starts the 23rd! Def dont want it to start. I went back to the West End (my school's hwy exit) today and i dont know how it happened but the West End actually looks worse. They are doing construction but its moving very slowly. The roads are more of a wreck they when I left. They need to get it together.
WHY IS IT SO HOT! Mid 90's all this week.
Shoutouts to all my Louisvillians. I miss you all. I really do need to find a way to merge Lville and Atlanta. Hope to see you guys sometime before 2007!
