Internship update...

I had my internship meeting this morning, and it looks like my job is going to be even more incredible than my original high expectations made it out to be! I'll be working in a little office near Oxford Circus. My commute is short; I only have one tube transfer (Piccadilly Line to Jubilee Line at Green Park), and I get off at Bond Street and have a nice 5 minute walk down Oxford Street. This morning I arrived for my interview way too early, and so I sat in the window of a little Italian cafe along the way and sipped a foamy latte to escape the pouring rain outside. My boss is named Ania, and she's just a few years older than I am. In total, our team will be less than ten people, and because of this I've been promised lots of real responsibilities. I'll be doing a lot of graphic design (posters, fliers etc.), making informational calls to various clients, and helping prepare curriculum, guest lists, and schedules for the awards show in April. I was tentatively asked to join the group in Cannes (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) at the end of April for the show given that everything goes well with the internship. AKA I need to start shopping for a ball gown asap... The girls were incredibley welcoming, and the environment was creative without the pretentiousness that usually accompanies it. The photographs that will be recognized in the show are absolutely gorgeous, and I'm so incredibley greatful to be involved with a company dedicated to promoting such amazing work!
